'College GameDay' is coming to NYC, fans ask why

To paraphrase ESPN's College GameDay theme song, they're comin' to New York Cityyyyyyy.

Intriguing idea and it should make for a different feel than being on a college campus, but college football for most New Yorkers means watching your alma mater on TV or at a bar with fellow fans ( read some of this written by me, a lifelong New Yorker).

It's not quite like it is elsewhere around the country, which is why the reaction on Twitter was mostly wondering … why?
