No they can't. There's already inventory in those slots. And networks aren't going to leave the late timeslot for

G5 games when they have a P5 conference perfectly capable of filling it. And, remember, people don't care about the PAC-12 in the PT, much less the CT or ETs.

This is the problem with the PAC-12's TV deal:

The biggest problem is that they broadcast PAC12 games.

Yes, it is a problem. But when the Pac 12 teams are doing better they get the coveted time slots as well.

But, again, their problem is they can't force any other P5 games into the 10:30 time slot

You're right. But they can force those p5 games to tier 2 or tier 3 time selections earlier in the day.

The issue is on the front end and the tail end of the broadcast day. The Pac's compelling matches can be selected

I would like to see where they have been slotted over the past 10 years.

Two weeks ago, FOX put USC-WSU on at 3:30 and put TAMU-Colorado on at 3:30 the week before that

Also of note - one PAC12 game (USC-OSU) where both fan bases were awake

I think USC fans (and the team) fell asleep in the first half
