Usually when College Football fans hear "blackout" they think of some Thursday night football game in the Big East or ACC where the home team wears all-black jerseys and ask all the fans to don black to the night game as well.In the case of the October 20th UCLA-Cal game, the words "black out" will have a whole new meaning. Former Google spokesman and environmental activist Nate Tyler is asking everyone in San Francisco to go without electricity for one hour between 8 PM and 9 PM that Saturday night.
If the game is selected as ABC's West Coast game of the week--which is likely since USC will be playing on the Notre-Dame Broadcasting Channel and this game will determine second place in the Pac Ten--that 8 PM to 9 PM time slot will coincide with the game's Fourth Quarter. Not that it matters. Winner goes to the Holiday Bowl.
