From the live chat with Stricklin-

Scott Stricklin:
Bulldog Sports Properties and our marketing staff have reduced all in-game commercials from 30 seconds to 15 seconds, effectively cutting the amount of commercial time in half on gameday. The time that is gained will be utilized to provide more interaction (music, videos, band, etc) for our fans.

And then this-
Comment From Kent Kent:
Will there be efforts made so that commercials will not be played during a timeout when 3&1 is coming up in the fourth quarter?

Scott Stricklin:
More flexibility has been built into the rundown to allow staff to adjust for game situations. Good question.

Chat is here and still going- http://www.hailstate.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=16800&ATCLID=209074060

Yea - when I checked on the pricing of running a sixpack ad with music only - they told me the prices would be going up b/c they are cutting down the commercials.

More than I felt comfortable asking people to pitch in. I was told you couldn't buy a single game ad. You had to buy the whole season.

I was serious about doing it. It was just going to say "This 60 second ad-free music is brought to you by SixPackSpeak.com" or whatever time interval we chose. It was going to be great.

More time for kiss cam, PLEASE NOT! Now, some co-ed hot dog eating would be ok, especially if they brought back the Bryan Juicy Jumbos

Sir, this is brilliant. It would not only have been great, but awesome.

Stats and scores. That's what we need to ramp up. Stats and scores. Auburn does a great job with this. Throughout the entire game they keep total offense stats for each team on the jumbotron.

Someone explain to me why when I link a picture it gets so small? No wait, don't explain why. Explain how I link a picture and get to control the size it appears.
