Good question, I found that it is technically located in University Park, FL - pop. 26,995 The Miami metro area was a little hazy.

SMU is in University Park and Boston College is in Chestnut Hill.

Boston College's stadium is within Boston city limits, though (don't know about SMU)

I would accept BC (yes, the stadium and about half the campus are within Boston's city limits), though not SMU. Buffalo's main campus and stadium are located outside of the city of Buffalo as well.

Thank you for your feedback. Per the above comments I removed SMU and Buffalo. I went back and forth on the above mentioned schools prior to releasing the quiz.

I must agree with chriskotx here. Boston College is in the city of Newton, which is not Boston. It is irrelevant where the stadium is located, what matters is where the college itself is located, and BC is not in Boston.

If this list went by metro areas above, say 500,000, you'd avoid all these "where did they draw the city line?" worries.

I removed Boston College as well. Dralcoffin, that is true. I may look into doing something like that. I wonder if it would then create new questions about boundaries. Would definitely be interesting to compare. UNLV is actually in Paradise, NV which has under 250k although it is still rather sizable. Thanks again for your feedback.

Valid point. That's another tough one. I'll give it some thought.
