RE: Season-opening Stanford Football Game Moved to Sydney, Australia???
If you watch the ABL (Australian Baseball League) games you can expect this to game to have a start time around 7-9 pm CDT start time which would be noon -2pm the next day in Sydney.

My guess would be we offered the game to NRG and they felt they couldn't sell it enough to get the teams $1M or more so we got with Stanford to shop it to Australia and consulted with Cal. Cal and Hawaii drew about 45K to ANZ Stadium (former Olympic stadium).

After being embarrassed bringing Owl football to Stanford, JK now takes it international. In the end it is about the money and hopefully it will bring enough that if needed we can fire Bailiff at mid season next year.
