My take on this issue has nothing to do with "difficiencies" or "West Coast vs. East Coast".

Ok. That's a valid point. My counter would be that the PAC officials are also working WCC games like Gonzaga vs St. Mary, etc...or working the MWC games or Big Sky games - all of which are televised out here after Ll you guys have gone to bed. So they do see their officials working other games in other venues, just not ACC or SEC or whatever.
