You forgot to mention Nippert Stadium which was the University of Cincinnati's home field. They would also play occasional games at Riverfront Stadium.
I think you've got Memorial Stadium confused with Byrd Stadium. Memorial Stadium was in Baltimore, not College Park, and the Terrapins didn't play there.
They did occasionally play games in Baltimore, so they likely did play games at Memorial. However, you’re right that Baltimore and College Park are two very different places.
The Terps played Miami there in 1984, perhaps to fill the football void left by the departure of the Colts for Indianapolis. Maybe instead you should have checked out Memorial Stadium in Minneapolis, vacated by the Gophers' move to the Metrodome.
The factoid about the Aztec Bowl being the only college football stadium south of Palo Alto is incorrect. The Los Angeles Coliseum opened in 1923, nearly twenty years before the construction of the Aztec Bowl. Also, THE ROSE BOWL is over 100 years old. Even though the Rose Bowl didn't become UCLA's home stadium until 1982, the Rose Bowl still hosted college football games and of course the Rose Bowl Game.
Maryland's home stadium since 1950 is Maryland Stadium, nee Byrd Stadium. Occasionally in the 80s the Terps would play a big game here (Penn State, Clemson) but it was not their home field and was located on 33rd street in north Baltimore.
San Diego/Jack Murphy Stadium: The San Diego Padres (MLB team) also played there until 2003 or 2004( they moved to the baseball-only Petco Park) Baltimore: Memorial Stadium was home to the NFL Colts(who moved to Indianapolis) and MLB Orioles(who moved to the baeball-only Camden Yards in the early 1990s) and, briefly, the NFL Ravens before they moved to their new stadium, and it was located in Baltimore proper, not College Park. The University of Maryland rarely played there
University of Maryland is in College Park, not Baltimore. U of M rarely, if ever, played games at Memorial Stadium. Morgan State played some of their bigger games at Memorial Stadium.
I miss the old Cardinal Stadium. Most of the Louisville teams that played there were terrible (or "turrible" as Charles Barkley would say) but the crowds were rowdy, especially in the end zone. That's just something that's missing in the new stadium. Interesting trivia, it was where the Dallas Cowboys got their first "unofficial" win in team history. On August 27, 1960 the Cowboys beat the NY Giants there in a pre-season game.
Your Baltimore Memorial Stadium information is incorrect. Maryland used it early in the 1900s and that was it. Navy played a few games there but it was primarily used for Baltimore Colts and Baltimore Orioles. It was never a permanent home for a college football team or a bowl.
@@michaelodonnell9756 just checked. They played Penn State there in 1974, 75 and 76. North Carolina in 1982. West Virginia in 1998 and the 2000 season there.They were ranked #1 when the played PSU in 76 and #1 when they played UNC in 82.
If I recall EA SPORTS had a football game that you could build your own stadium, it was a dope feature! I’ve always been fascinated with stadiums , especially the ones of the past , once filled with thousands of ppl….now they’re just ghosts…TIME is of the essence !!!
Goodwin Stadium (Arizona State) used by ASU through 1957 before moving to Sun Devil Stadium. It was used by Tempe High School up through the early 70s before being demolished in the mid 70s.
