    Whether the teams to add can win or not, is not the problem!!!!!!!!!! It is adding strength to the conference, and TV sets. The two you mention do neither. I hate to see the our old rivals gone, but you can bet they are.

    Tuck Fexas they are the main reason for the realignment. I hope they go indy and fail.

    Yeah play teams like Tulsa so we can have earlier starts!

    Oh wait...the Tulsa game is a 9:00 PM start.

    You do realize in the Pac-16 format there will only be ONE game played in the Pacific timezone right? Admittedly, Phoenix can be 2 hours off part of football season.

    Only 1 game in the Pacific time zone doesn't necessarily equate to only 1 game in a suck time slot. Zona's game starts at 10 pm Eastern tonight... Which means no one on the East coast is going to watch.

    So we might wind up playing a game or two in a later time slot, that's life if you can't stay up tape/DVR it and watch it the next morning.

    Not really a difference to the East Coast. 11 pm Eastern is essentially viewed the same as 10 pm Central. People just go to sleep later there than in the Central time zone. Letterman, et al starts at 11:30 pm Eastern.

    Further, when the PAC has a bunch of TV sets to worry about in TX, OK and CO, there will be some adjustments so that they are often not so late. They are late now so that they can fill later time slots. They'll just put the games with the West coast only teams in those late time slots.

    They will have TV bylaws.. like Central teams cant play the late west coast game. and West teams cant play the 11am CST games. Just makes sense,

    I said to someone the other day that I don't think OSU/OU would go different ways...because they both know how much it means to everyone in the stay of Oklahoma...or atleast thats what all the OSU and OU fans I know are saying..they wouldn't be happy if we split and stopped playing each other...

    Which is 9PM Central - same as our Tulsa game.

    The TV Coverage is Fox Sports Arizona too, so it wasn't intended to be a nationally televised game so not many on the East Coast would have watched it anyway.

    I only want one thing before all this happens, and that's for OSU AND OU to curb stomp the snot out of fAggy before they leave to get the snot curb stomped out of them in the SEC.

    No you are. Constantly talking about all our games going to be on in the middle of the night if we go to the PAC, and that will not be the case.
