It's insane how many people are watching those late night games. I bet a lot do what I do and that's watching after you get home from your team's game. College football fans are something else.

Pac 12 after dark is kind of like that last round after a long day drinking. Yeah, you’ve probably had enough, but it still feels good to keep the buzz going late into the night.

Also interesting fact: I am 50 time more likely to watch the after dark games if the Cats won that day.

This. My dad and I got back from Morgantown just as the Arizona/USC game was kicking off. It's genius from a tv standpoint. 3 hours after a WVU win and I get to watch some late night cfb? Awesome day.

Those games help keep people in sports bars too.

Also, gambling. They're the Monday night version of college football. Bookie kicked your ass all afternoon? You're in luck! Just double down on Oregon State vs Cal!

They are playing a Pac 12 game between two ranked teams that will end after 11:30 PM locally, 2:30 AM on the east coast. That is completely unacceptable. I couldn't imagine sitting at a football game with my family at nearly midnight, then have to sit in traffic for another hour.
What about games that end at 1:30am EST on Friday night?

Shameful for the Pac 12. Larry Scott skates nationally for this, and it's pathetic. Could you imagine the national ridicule if the Big 12 had all of these stupid Friday night games? What makes it worse is they knew Washington and Washington State would be contenders this year, still did this to them. BTW Larry Scott couldn't see that football game, he was in Shanghai last night for their Pac 12 basketball challenge. I wonder how he's helping UCLA get their players off of house arrest.

All of this just to be a distant fifth in revenue for the P5.

Maybe it is just me, but I thought destroying your conference's playoff chances just kinda happens when every team in the conference has 2 losses. At that point, it doesn't matter what time you are playing.

There was a time that people talked about Larry Scott like he was some kind of genius. Didn't pan out that way.

He was being compared to Dan Beebe tho.

Luck. That's what that is. Campbell has to leave after the season, right?

I think Campbell would be smart to stay at ISU.

Why? There are probably 4-6 SEC jobs up for grabs. Most of those will pay more than ISU. Most of those are better places to be than Ames. Most of those would probably offer him the job.

I think he'd be wise to stay.  Having a steady multi-million dollar job where people worship you if you win 6 games is a pretty sweet gig.  That said, I'd understand if someone his age was a bit more ambitious than that.

even SEC coaches don't want SEC expectations.  dude would be out of a job in 2 years.  i'm not suggesting he stay in that shitfest of a town, Ames, though.  good grief :lol:

I mean that makes sense to me, but I think most coaches believe they can be the best and want to prove themselves on the biggest stages
