    Any guesses as to where the Pac12 football games will be available in the Fall?

    The obvs answer is obvs.

    Haha if that was the case we’d get 2-3 teams in the playoffs every year and Pac12 After Dark would actually have ratings.
    The only way Pac 12 After Dark would get ratings is if they signed a deal with tempe12.com, had live shots at frat houses around the conference and replaced Nigel Burton and Lincoln Kennedy with a rotating cast of topless coeds.

    Let’s face it. The P12N could be better by covering 98% football and 2% basketball but even that would only help so much because the league just isn’t that popular.

    It’s not popular because it has teams in it like Utah, Wazzu, Oregon State, Colorado, Cal, and Arizona. Most cfb fans don’t even know those schools have football teams and will never respect them.

    SC, UW, Oregon, UCLA, and Stanford (or ASU once Shaw leaves) should join up with Miami, Notre Dame, Texas and Oklahoma to make their own conference. It would be called the Non Fag conference.

    The other “schools” left out would be called the Fag Conference, the Big Fag, or “We’re not like the Mountain West Everyone Says So” Conference.

    What I don't get is how stupid was Larry Scott to not for see that night games are going to equate to 10-15000 empty seats in Husky stadium. We have an older fan base that simply won't show up for those and at halftime half the student section leaves to go party. The few folks around the country that stay up to watch see a half empty stadium and rightly conclude that UW fans don't give a fuck. Doesn't help at the end of the year when UW is on the bubble for a playoff spot and the program is perceived as a not serious player.

    Big Fag has legs.

    Not trying to defend Larry Scott here. But what you're describing sounds like a UW problem, not a Pac-12 problem.

    Sounds like a program steep in tradition.



    Guess what.... SEC and ACC teams have 7 PM local starts too and they don't have those problems.


    I think it's because they care about Football.

    And UW doesn't give a fuck when compared to Football in the South.

    UW can have day games. ASU needs night games until november.

    It happens everywhere. Blowouts are boring in the second half.

    If I went to bama I'd probably never watch a majority of the 2nd halfs either. There is booze and women.....or watching another 2 hours in the sun of a noncompetitive game

    A Venn Diagram would show Larry Scott is both a Pac-12 problem and a UW problem.

    lolwut?

    Milk and Eggs don't make an Omelette. Also, French Toast shits on Pancakes. Sorry, had to get my 2 cents in.
