No. Living in SEC country everyone watches the game. Man, woman, and child.uzi said:
I wonder if a competent negotiator for the Pac 12 could fix this endless nightgame bullshit without the Pac 12 losing any TV revenue.YellowSnow said:I wonder if Peterman and the rest of the coaches would be willing to take a pay cut so we could return to the era of all 1230 or 1pm kicks and not every game on TV. Stupid college sports arms race.
Living in Pac-12 country everyone planned on watching the game but went wine tasting or mountain biking or hiking or some other faggy shit. Look no farther than Pac-12 stadiums. Cal, Stanford, Wazzu, OS, ASU, UA, UCLA, and USC usually play with a third of the stadium empty or more.
The west will never compete with the east when it comes to football fanaticism.
The second ESPN gave Texas an ass load of money not to join the Pac-10 Larry Scott should have just stopped and waited for something to happen before making anymore moves. Adding Colorado and Utah fucked over the Oregon and Washington schools for exposure in LA and put us up against fan bases we don't compare to.
This is a worthless argument though. It's not like Larry can boot Utah and CU while asking for less money that all of these AD's are dependent on now. There aren't any schools left on the left side of the country to add to try to attract more viewers outside of BYU. Of course that will never happen because liberals would never go for a religious school because they are only tolerant when they agree. -
What kind of Fucking schedule is this?!!! Games at 7:45! 7:45 at night! Are you kidding me?DerekJohnson said:We need to hire Jon Taffer as pac12 commish

It's a fucking shame the defending PAC 10 champs play at the same time SCLSU muddawgs play

I've always thought you need about 2 more generations before west coast schools have the fanbase they do in the MidwestMosster47 said:

For example I don't think I've ever met a single person who has parents that were born in Arizona
However take my family as the other end.
Both my grandparents and half of their kids went to Michigan State.
So in the 3rd generation you've grown up rooting for it.
We just don't have that for the most part out west. Everyone's a fucking Cubs fan.
