Dwindling fan interest would be improved by playing the games at 5pm in September and October instead of 7:30, November games at 1:30, not playing on Thursday or Friday night, scheduling Michigan or Ohio State not UC Davis, not scheduling three games before Fall Quarter begins, serving drinkable coffee at the concession stands and about a thousand other promotional things.
Of course Larry Scott owns the Stanford Athletic Department so none of the above will happen.
I stopped going to UC games when Pete Elliot and Marv Levy were coaching a boring brand of football but continued coming to Stanford Stadium because Cactus Jack threw the ball. Hung in there with gritted teeth during Buddyball and Wlatball and have been rewarded with a great 10 year run. Same old, same old? I'll take it (and the nine or ten wins each year) but I retain the right to bitch when a fourth down run fails.
