Always excuses. Too early, too late, too cold, too hot, too bright, too dark, too sunny, too rainy...
If I am a TV exec I conclude it is all too much and then pick the option in Eugene or better yet Baton Rouge.
Count on a paid crowd of 42,000. And actual crowd of 23,000. And a sunny side crowd visible to the TV audience of about 4,000. And top it off with a library like setting since students will be out.
I am expecting at least a few jokes that reference the academic quality of the schools and couple it with comments about a library environment and/or fans in the library not in the stands.
So well said. The stadium is fine. It will be much hotter in Orlando at UCF, that's for sure.
C'mon folks, can we not be the literal definition of "fair weather fans"?
Yeah, I've sat through some hot games at Stanford, but they don't compare to a couple I endured at Florida State. I recall one time I thought I was going to pass out.
