Normally the case at all venues. Attendance is based on ticket sales.

People can waste hours playing on a phone, but can’t take a 2 minute live in game commercial break without getting disinterested.

The conference makes the TV deals and there is nothing the university standing alone can do. We show up when, where and how they say. The only way around it would be to go independent.

If the play clock was set to the same calibration as the clock for time in between posts people would see even more delays

Get that. But we also can’t tell people how to be fans. The world is changing and fast paced sports just tend to be more interesting. American Football has not caught on globally, there might be a reason for that.

Good luck trying to get a signal at cajun field

My question is: what the hell are the TV timeouts even for?

If you watch on ESPN+, they go to commercial that is usually just a static image that says "Commercial Break"
