That means those are EARLY games in the day, no Jammies needed in the middle of a 7:00 PM telecast. Great for fans watching TV...
Oh, yes, great for fans watching TV, I totally agree! I was thinking about the travel time for the team. Of course, the players are much younger than I, so handling "jet lag" might be much easier for them.
The football team is one of the few sports that rarely has to miss many classes, because in the PAC they could leave on a Friday afternoon for away games, but will have to leave early Friday mornings for games on the East Coast, if not on Thursdays. Other sports usually play over a period of two or more days, so the members of those teams can end up miss a lot of school.

3 games in the Easter Time Zone isn't too bad, but not great.

I think with standing-room games Autzen has had 60,000.
More shuttle buses? (I take the shuttle, and love it.) Maybe a parking garage, if needed?

It will be fun to see The Duck interact with the other Big10 mascots.

On another board (not a Duck one) a trojan fan said that one of the main reasons he he liked the USC leaving the Pac-12 was to get away from the abusive scheduling the Trojans received over the years.
Abusive scheduling????

With ASU, Arizona and Utah all going to the Big 12, I would say this is the swan song for the PAC. Hopefully you guys can keep the Civil War Game alive. Along with Washington and the Apple Cup. Utah gets their Holy War game back.
According to the UO president: "In coming years, the UO will prioritize the long-held traditions, including competition across all sports with Oregon State University."

6 suggested new names for the Big Ten Conference, which reportedly could get Oregon and Washington
...
How about the CTC Conference (Coast to Coast) or OTO Conference (Ocean to Ocean).

At least one non-revenue sport, Acrobatics & Tumbling, already plays teams at a far distance, such as Qunnipiac in CT (and those teams travel here).

If Our Beloved Ducks rank below the other streaming packages--then that is quite a choice. This person is not a big fan IMHO, when it is only ten bucks a month for four months of the year?
She's a big fan, but is currently at a point where she has to count her pennies (long story).

I have a friend who already has various streaming packages and cable and has decided that, rather than pay yet one more bill, will listen to Duck games on the radio if they will available only on Apple TV.

Not likely Annie. NFL Prime video games aren't any shorter than network TV games for the NFL.
Thanks, and drat!

As I understand it, Apple TV means no commercials? If so, does this mean the games would be over in 3 hours or less?
-
Sigh. Well, now I'm a fan of Oregon joining the Big10, just so I can watch the games on ESPN, ABC, and Fox.

Thanks, Mistertea and Ducked!
Also, can you transfer tickets from Wallet to a friend or someone else?

If I put my tickets in Wallet, can I still go to Ticketmaster to put them up for sale?

When it comes to college football, I don't know what to believe anymore.

Wake me when:
There's a PAC media deal.
Conference membership, current or new, is a done deal.
Kliavkoff makes a final decision about anything.

Maybe Nebraska can be lured to the PAC. They haven't had a lot of success in the Big10.

Warning! This Contains Wacko, Sicko, USC Fans in La-La Land
in Our Beloved Ducks
Posted
Damon Amendolara, subbing for Jim Rome on his show this morning, ranted on and on about how money is destroying college football. He made some good points, but I was annoyed with his indignation and raving against teams such as Oregon and Washington leaving one conference for another.
He may have had those good points in his rant, but he concentrated on recent actions in college football, with no mention of his alma mater, Syracuse University, which left the Big East for the ACC beginning with the 2013-14 season, and the effect that had on the Big East. Maybe that wasn't as dramatic as what's happened recently, but Syracuse was making sure they would stay in a Power 5 Conference--not unlike currents teams moves....
