They need to solve that problem.

I think it's obvious that the problem is that they are not seen much in the east or mid-west. Outside of the annual game where Notre Dame plays at USC or at Stanford, the PAC12 never gets on the 8:00 Saturday night game on ABC. And the Big XII and Big Ten squeeze out the 8:00 game on Fox.

The PAC12 really needs to pursue CBS or NBC to get on at 8:00 on Saturday night with some PAC12 Game. ESPN is really interested only in 10:30 PM games, and only on cable channels. That's not really working for the PAC12. They need to keep this, but they must pursue an 8:00 slot somewhere on a major channel. The only open choices are CBS and NBC. NBC has Notre Dame locked up at 3:30 and CBS has the SEC locked up at 3:30.

I think they should pursue NBC because 3:30 is open when Notre Dame plays on the road as well as 8:00 pm is open.

Even if the Pac-12 had more earlier kickoffs on whatever channel -- VTHokie2000 04/23/2019 11:19AM

It would drive more interest than not being seen at all. -- HOO86 04/23/2019 4:32PM

Yeah, when USC was rolling, they were always on TV in good spots. -- reestuart 04/23/2019 4:42PM
