It's well documented that because of the body's circadian rhythms, football players who live on the west coast do not perform their best when playing before noon or 1pm pacific. If you move games to 9am local you will not only destroy tailgating, you will not only piss off fans to have to get up insanely early hours to drive in for games, but you will create a worse product on the field, increase variance (making it more likely for the underdogs to win and even more likely your conference will be shutout from the playoffs) and in the event any of these 9am games are against teams from the central or eastern time zones, you will be putting your schools at an actual home field disadvantage.

Of all the dumbass ideas you have had during your chinsanely chincompetent reign of terror, this one is probably the worst of the lot.

    I am aware of this in the context that West Coast teams, that have to travel east for games before a certain time, are physically hindered from the early start. I always assumed it was an effect of jet lag.

    I also assumed that it did not impact home games.

    Good.shit.dnc.

    Body clocks.

    It's also why West Coast teams dominate Monday Night Football (and other primetime games). East coast body clocks are not at peak levels during primetime, even though the effects of jet lag flying west and gaining three hours are far less significant than flying east and losing them.

    Christ, you could put Ron White or Fluffy Iglesias in charge and have less comedy than LarryScottFS.

    Where do we send our nominations for 2019?
