aTm fans are worried about joining the Pac 10 because of empty seats. They make a great argument. Them joining the SEC would benefit them in regards to sellouts. I just don't see Washington State, Washington, Oregon State, Arizona, etc fans traveling to CS, TX to watch a football game.

We'd still sellout, but our ticket department releases ticket only days before a game if the visiting allotment doesn't sellout. It makes for a clusterfrick for travel reasons.

It looks to be huge failure in the long run. I would be about as excited about that if I were A&M as I would about eating a big bowl of steamed broccoli.

I would definitely travel to College Station to see UGA play in Kyle Field. Kyle Field would sellout LSU, Florida, TN, UGA, Auburn, Bama, Arky, hell probably even SCe and UKY. Football in the Pac 10 isn't that big and I just don't see aTm benefiting from them joining this conference, especially with the large amount of shite programs out here.

I dont get this rush for several B12's to go to the P10.
Not only will the distance make travel expensive and unlikely except for football for the Okies and Tex,
imagine basketball, and track. no one will travel to the great NW for those. they better hope they put together an east division that can play 85% of their games in the 'east', and a couple of west teams alternatively.

Wouldnt you have fans that are going to tailgate anyways that would then decide to go to the game? Or do you people only go to tailgate if you already have tickets?
If you cant sell out even if its Wazzu, you suck.
