East Coast TVs are so Important

Norfolk, VA. Philadelphia, PA. Charleston, SC. Savannah, GA. Jacksonville, FL. Chicago, IL. St Louis, MO. Boston, MA. 

I can go on and on. There are probably 80-100 markets that are interested in the PAC12, yet they are asleep when football being played. 

10am and noon games are a must. Big money and commercial love will come back to western football if the right moves are made.

Eastern time zone here too. I love PAC12 after dark–seriously r/cfb for PAC games is a blast–but we have to play between 1 and 7 PM EDT to get enough visibility, especially out of conference. Posted about this on the other thread but almost 2/3 of the US lives east of the Mississippi. We need to be willing to play when people watch.

Lol meanwhile in Oklahoma. It’s not just a PAC problem.

I think Oklahoma plays noon games typically.

[Duhwayne]

Agreed. I think their ratings benefit if they can knock off SEC and B1G games from coverage. They should take as many as they can.

[Johnny]

I would rather stand down and play at noon, than let the TV pukes dictate. They are very much underestimating how much the East Coast wants to see the PAC12.

There is room for everyone.

[Duhwayne]

No problem, if we can knock off Big 12 games. Texas is not going to just roll over on PAC.

Big-time recruits are watching college football Saturday during the day. Even in Texas. Saturday night they’re chasing women.

Yep, looked up their 2019 schedule. Half of their games were 11:00am

Norman gets it. Maybe the Pig Bus can start making omelettes.
