I would only see a future 9am game on my TV. In my pajamas. Alone.
I can’t imagine rallying the family at 6 am to make it to our seats by a 9 am kickoff. On a Saturday. In the dark. It would be the sort of bridge over the River Kwai forced labor march that would kill the next generation of Stanford fans in my family.
That’s just Div 2 bush league crap.
Tomorrow I’ll tell you what I REALLY think...
Not to mention the teams would have to do walkthroughs at 4:30am, according to crazy pirate warlord Mike Leach. He hates the idea.
Personally I think the #Pac12AfterDark brand is being embraced by the younger generation (if Reddit is any meaningful indicator). A game or 2 in that timeslot is inevitable, and hardcore fans will watch. Maybe try not having the marquee games at 7pm, though. Or delayed by truck racing.
