Both games can be played at the "prime" 7:30 time slot and each will have a full school worth of fans to draw from. This is how it was done here last season, I think. But I guess it was still not good enough for the more militant groups.

This shows the contradiction in the law or the rulings. Girl's and Boy's games were always (and still are in most places) played on seperate nights. A lawsuit was filed to have the girls play on every Friday and the same Saturdays as the Boys. Obviously they are not going to play at the same time with the way these two conferences changed it, but they I guess playing on the same night makes them happy.
I agree with equal accomidations and equal access, I just do not understand what it is going to accomplish by playing on the same nights. Not all officials are going to want to do varsity games at 6:00 (especially on a week day), no matter what level.
