Nov 2020 - wrassling at the Shoe?

Penn State football plays at tOSU on November 23rd. Could this be a day, night double header or a Friday/Saturday or Saturday/Sunday schedule?
Sounds like a terrible idea in the middle of november
Have a backup plan for rain. If no rain, just have heaters available. Wimpy Soccer players all over Northern Europe play throughout the winter in shorts and long sleeve shirts at most - only the Brazilians will wear gloves. And 7 minutes of wrestling is much more concentrated effort, so they won’t be getting cold while competing
Oh, I was looking at 2019 schedule. We host tOSU for football in 2020 I guess.
Bad idea 100%. Just as dumb as sticking a h hockey rink in a football/baseball field and making the fans freeze/get soaked in the rain while having the worst possible seats to see the action.
Just a bad idea.
If Iowa and Oklahoma State can do it on November 14 in Iowa, why not? Obviously there will have to be a contingency plan for weather and the sight lines for fans won't be great. But if it gets people talking about wrestling and potentially introduces the sport to more fans, what's the harm?
We wrestled at Columbus this year, so the wrestling sequence would need to be flipped to accommodate it.
Rutgers and Maryland had a football / wrestling double-header scheduled at Yankee Stadium for November 4, 2017. Games were moved to Rutgers at the last minute due to possible Yankees World Series game conflict.
