The most interesting implication is that on season-ticket sales, which I haven't seen discussed elsewhere. He also talks about the (unsurprisingly) low advance sales for the PAC12 championship game at Levi's tomorrow. I appreciate that an out-of-towner sees the difficulty in scheduling a kickoff during Friday rush hour in the Bay Area.

Not to mention, I see it is suppose to be truly awful weather conditions all during the game. Rain, cold, and winds at 20-30 MPH. But hey, both teams will have to play in it. And it's nothing compared to what teams play in in the northern latitudes.
