True, but I think the vast majority of BC fans watching the game will not be inside Stanford Stadium and will be situated well to the east of the Pacific time zone. Meanwhile, the players will be competing from 10:30 pm to 2 am body-clock time.
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
