Absolutely agree. If not Mariucci, some other venue. Here is what I wrote in another string...
"I think the University should think things through. If it were me, I would have found a spot to broadcast the game (Mariucci, TCF Bank Stadium, Track & Field Stadium, etc.) where students could gather to watch the game and celebrate. In a situation like this, people are just looking for a place to gather to celebrate. Have an area picked out ahead of time where you can contain the celebration."
