is absolutely pitiful! Just flipped to the Arizona/UCLA game....48-12 Arizona. They're in Arizona...the home team is winning and the stands are empty....and before the last kickoff....they were rocking Boston's "More Than a Feeling."

Captivating TV....a fine product you have there Larry Scott!!! Are they really a major conference?!?!?

Well, it is Thursday. (I haven't turned on the game, so I don't know how many people are there.)

I caught the last 4 minutes. They said it was Arizona's first win against an FBS opponent in 355 days. You'd have thought their fans would have relished a 48-12 victory over a California school. Neuheisel can't be long for UCLA. I don't get why OU/OSU would have entertained going to that waste of a conference.

It's shocking that a 1-5 team, having just fired its coach, would not have a sellout for a televised Thursday night game.

They had a shot of the stands and there was 1 girl sitting by herself and no one within 20 rows of her.

The PAC got a massive TV deal and the network must salivate for such a riveting matchup...yeah, it's Thursday night, but that was pitiful.

With USC hurting, the Pac 12 South is a joke. Brock Osweiler, and that's it.

The crowd was pretty full until halftime. AZ was up 42-7 at the break. I'm guessing some of the patrons headed out at that point.

I noticed that in a shot from earlier in the game. I guess that's what makes it baffling that a fanbase that has gone 355 days without a win over an FBS opponent wouldn't want to watch a blowout.

What's shocking is that the game would even be on TV at all, especially opposite the World Series. For the life of me, I cannot figure out how Larry Scott was able to finagle such a huge contract for such a crappy bunch of garbage teams whose games kickoff after over half the country has gone to bed.

It was selected before the season started, like all weeknight games. Yeah, you could have figured that Arizona wouldn't have a great record just by looking at their schedule. But the mid-season firing? No way to plan for that.

I'm sure there will be people asking similar questions on Nov. 18 regarding ISU-OSU.

At least Okie St is a top 10 team. People tune in to watch top 10 teams, pretty much regardless of who they are playing. UCLA/Arizona? Not so much. One team is already looking for a coach, and the other one will be very soon.
