You gotta feel for USC. What were they supposed to do? Find a group of 11 more teams in or near the pacific time zone and play them every week?

West coast teams in the Big Ten makes more sense then West coast teams in the ACC. :)

Or: the NFL playing games in Dublin and London.

Come on people: get with the times! “…follow the brave new world lead of the NFL multi-billion dollar net worth owners club brain trust!…”.

Don’t cave in to ESPN and their little pet SEC league. The college players need to learn how to deal with “…time zone and jet-lag issues if they hope to play at the next level. Coaches and fans do too!

Stretch the limits of the all mighty buck!

Did the PAC fold mainly because the time zone difference reduced their TV visibility and viewership? They had some bigtime schools between football and basketball, not to mention non rev sports, and academic powerhouses Stanford and Cal. They really should’ve found a way to keep it between Pacific and Mountain/Arizona time zones. Stanford/Cal traveling to the east coast for their conference away games is bananas.
 

Pro teams travel across the country frequently. Plus out of the country. Its about adjustment, but not saying its easy. Its always and adjustment playing on the road.

USC faces four BIG teams at home and travels to three.

I remember Lloyd Carr whining and crying about the Friday night game at the damn Dome to accommodate the Twins schedule. Now Friday night BIG games are common.
 

We coulda used some group sympathy when MN had Dave Lee on the call. Corderback.

That is simply not a good comparison for the abomination of our ridiculous coast to coast Big Ten.
 

I guess I don’t see Riley telling the truth the same as asking for sympathy
 

He's like the fourth highest paid HC in college football and has the #1 recruiting class for 2026. Him complaining about things like this are comical.
 

Majority of the original 14 big ten teams are in eastern time. Rifgt?
