The USC-Cal game on Dec. 4 will kick off at 8 p.m. on Dec. 4 on FS1.
Who wants to go to a game in the Bay Area in December at 8 p.m.????
Maybe it would have better to just take the forfeit. And how many will be watching the late-night affair after a day of SEC, Big 12, Big Ten and ACC title games. The Big Ten game starts at 5 p.m. PT so it will run in the USC-Cal game. Or should I say steamroller it?
Meaningless game deserves a meaningless time slot. Under 20K for actual attendance?

Attendance might very easily go over 20,000, Goose. There are creditable reports that tickets are being GIVEN AWAY at comic book stores, head shops and adult toy locations throughout Berkeley. Now, in a lot of locations that wouldn’t add up to squat ….but in Berkeley we might be talking 45,000 to 50,000 potential “fans.”

On my first and only visit to Berkeley in 2017, kickoff was 12:30PM. I did a day trip on Southwest flying to Oakland and taking the light rail to the stadium and back. Great experience. In 2019. Game Time was also 8:00 PM I recall. Disappointed, so did not attend. This year, within minutes of hearing the 12:30 Kickoff, I booked my Flight (thru SFO on Delta this time for a new experience and bought a Game Ticket). Now this crap again. Any wonder why apathy is setting in to the Live Bodies that actually go to the games? Name one other game that has started at 8:00 PM local time this year anywhere in the country?

Glad that the walk-ons and others who dont get a chance to play much will have this opportunity. Hope we see Miller Moss play.
BTW, where is Bru McCoy? DA chose not to file charges before the season started. He is stuck in Carol Folt purgatory. Why can’t USC admit it made a mistake with her, and send her off with early retirement?

67,
Question: Why doesn’t USC send Folt into retirement?
Answer: USC specializes in weak hires. What do weak hires specialize in? Not making decisions that take any guts.

[Question: Does anybody here think Harrell planned for what to do in the event he lost Drake London to injury from overuse? Or, worse, was his “plan” to keep throwing jump balls to receivers who are only 6 feet tall and weigh 190 pounds]?

The game time for BYU is just as f##king stupid. UCLA also plays Cal at Rose Bowl at same 730pm start time.
What genius schedules both local LA teams at same freaking time?
Seriously, Pac 12 does not care about its fans.
The end of West Coast football has finally occurred.
Just imagine if PC was not hired in 2001?

Scooter,
I was wrong. I said the game would start at 7:30 PM Saturday night. Boy was I wrong. Horrible. They should have played this on Friday the game before the PAC 12 conference game.
