    The Pac 12 should do a couple marquee match ups at 9. Not regional or ESPNU, FS1 bullshit. But ABC, ESPN or Fox. Everybody bitches about the late games and the overall lack of exposure for P12 football. This is the only way you can get the Midwest and EC to watch your conference plain and simple.

    I love the idea of 9am kickoffs.

    The older crowd that stopped attending games because they don’t want to get home at 1am? They’d be back. The bandwagon ‘football-is-a-social-event’ younger crowd that wants to be elsewhere Saturday night? They’d attend in much greater numbers. Hardcore fans? Home by early afternoon and can watch the all of the other CFB games the rest of the day. Casual fans? Can still have most of their Saturday to do dumb non CFB things.

    Showing your age here Gladdy. Hardcore disagree that the younger crowd would like this.

    The Dawg Pack would be 80% empty for a 9am kickoff. Students, especially those who only go to games for the social aspect, aren’t going to wake their asses up that early on a Saturday. Same goes for most early 20s fans.
    80% of the dawgpack are casuals? If we have a rocking top 15 team they won’t show? It’s gotten worse than when I was there for Owen/early Sark then. We still had lots show up. First time I’ve felt old on this site haha.

    9 am kickoff? That gives people like an hourish to get fucked up. Fuck that

    I'll get up at 4AM to get properly lubed. I can be home and passed out by 2PM. Fuck it.
    You really think the students are getting up in time after being railed the night before? Fuuuck no

    The reality is that most of the casuals would rather watch Netflix hungover in bed than make it to the stadium by 9am.

    It fucking sucks but that’s what this generation is about

    @NEsnake12 this is really chinsightful. I must confess I’m of two minds about the college student to late 20s demographic in the UW fan base:

    1) They are the future of our fan base (teach them well...let them lead the waaayyyyy), so they should figure into any marketing/logistics plans. It saddens me that the Dawg Pack/student section got moved and these late kick offs cut into their party time.

    Or...

    2) Fuck ‘em. They can cut their hair, turn down their music, and get off my lawn. If they can’t show up consistently to watch a ranked team then UW should only worry about catering to the long time supporters that have been with the program through thick and thin.


    I don’t pretend to have the answers, and like @1to392831weretaken said, the youngsters do show up when it counts...so that’s something!

    As a parent of two RABID DWAG FANS in this age group (one sophomore, one recent grad about ready to start grad school on Mountlake) I know they would attend the 9 AM gaymes.

    It is this simple. Actual fans show up for games. They do NOT make fucking excuses. Goes for EVERY FUCKING ONE. Not just lazy ass, entitled millenials. Or Post-game-orange-slices-every-one-gets-a-trophy students. It even goes for fucking parents. There are plenty of fucking activites for those other 46 fucking Saturdays a year. FB is FB. Husky HB is Husky HB

    Yeah that's bullshit. I'd wake up hungover at 8 or 9 Saturday on Greek row and people would already be ripping bongs outside and prefunking to go see the Ty shitshow.

    If the students are apathetic now it's because the student section seats are ass.

    Well fuck them. I never missed a game my entire time at UW and I sport fucked with the best of them. Pussies.
    Duh. That’s what happens when half your student body is from China.

    It’s the kids like me that don’t go to UW that care. All my UW friends couldn’t really give a shit. All my friends who couldn’t get in or went elsewhere suck UW football’s collective dick.

    NOGAF about the poor-ass students. That's why they got moved to the endzone. Not saying I supported that move. Don't twist.
