If you zoom in, you'll see this was taken with 5:27 before kickoff.

    You obviously aren't well informed. Even Larry Scott knows that the only number that matters is tickets sold. Attendance is for pussies.

    We were specifically told that viewership is up 36% on Late Night games.

    The game will be in Vegas when they stadium opens and the game will be more full. The PAC won't travel like SEC does, ever. But Vegas will be better location and warmer.

    Also would like to see a pic in the second quarter, not before the game.

    This taken at kickoff
    25k fans in the stadium tops. The Sounders would be questioning their business model if that was their crowd.

    so many better options. It will probably be in Vegas though. That is a small step up

    It's not a where problem. All the other conferences fill their neutral site championship games. Pac 12 fans simply care less than everywhere else in the country. That aint gonna change. We are the pussified West.

    I read an article a week or so ago that said the game will be in Santa Clara in 2019 and the conference has a opt out option for 2020. I hope they opt out and go with the best record in conference.

    Yeah but..,

    The SEC and ACC are relatively driveable from most of the schools. Same with Big10.

    The PAC is spread out all over and anybody coming from the north or Utah or Colorado has potentially risky driving conditions.

    Plus Friday night is FS.

    I don't think that was before kickoff... I'm pretty sure I remember browning having to throw the ball away on that play.

    Vegas is an easy drive from LA and has lots of rooms

    If you get highly ranked USC and UW playing for a CFP berth you could probably fill Santa Clara and sure could Las Vegas or Inglewood

    Texas and OU will sell out if they are both Owen 12

    But the West is the wide open spaces. Dallas is an easy shot from Oklahoma and it is in Texas as noted elsewhere

    Yes, which is why we need to take a different approach, such as outlined in my previous post.

    To keep doing what we're doing will continue to diminish the Pac-12. The conference needs to take a different approach.

    It all starts by firing the tennis queer.

    Perhaps having more than 2 bars within a $30 cab ride from the stadium at a neutral field would make sense. Preferably ones that open before 2 pm for a 5pm rush hour kickoff. Fuck you.
