Being a west coaster as a sports fan is definitely the best situation because football Saturdays and Sundays are an all day event, from getting up to going to bed.

However, since the east coast is a bunch of punk bitches that tap out after a couple of games, the west coast games just don't get the full potential audience they could. It's an east coast bias thing that permeates everything, but does make sense.

Since time zones exist, the only way the western schools can be included in the national picture at a real level is to be a part of a nationwide league, and even then they can't bring as much as an east coast schools just based on the day travelling from east to west.

There could probably be a Bama-type legacy program in Bakersfield and they wouldn't have the draw of the actual Alabama just based on half of their games being at night on the west coast while 50% of the people east of the Mississippi won't be awake at the end of the game.

Why doesn't the Pac jsut do the big noon kickoff instead of after dark if that's the issue?


it's because no one actually gives a shite about cal vs washington st.
