So how are those teams more valuable? If no one out there wants to watch them, during their time zone times, and no one in the rest of the country does either. Its not about market areas, that is old, its about viewership, with cable cutting. No one is going to or watching Pac games. No one on the west coast cares, and no Big 12 teams are going to leave for there. The Pacs only chance is to go somewhere else, Wherever that ends up. And everyone knows they all have one foot out the door, so the stability is gone.
That's because of the time difference. Nobody's watching Pac-12 after dark.
