Still not sure why they don't move them at least to the other side. Why do we give the visitors the non-sun side?
I've never understood why Iowa State uses the sun sideline. Every other home team, literally college or pro, I have seen utilizes the non-sun sideline.Still not sure why they don't move them at least to the other side. Why do we give the visitors the non-sun side?

My thoughts exactly....although we will likely have few night/sunset games with our previous years' record.
Exposure is good if you win home games.I've heard a few time that ISU likes to use the sun side because it a little warmer, and because being on the side opposite of the cameras gives them more exposure.
My guess is to keep them off the camera, and the students are on that side.
I would think you should be more worried about keeping the sun out of your season ticket holders then you are keeping the visiting fans off TV. In the end, the sun isn't a HUGE deal, but it can be a pain for the 1st quarter of night games when you are on that side.
It keeps our students and our team on TV. It keeps the visiting fans and team off TV. Seems pretty logical to me.
Or maybe they should move the press box to the other side.![]()
I'm guessing that the SEZ will help with this issue. Maybe not for those in the nose bleeds...I would think you should be more worried about keeping the sun out of your season ticket holders then you are keeping the visiting fans off TV.

I may be one of the few, but I like being on the sun side. We rarely have super-high-temp day games, and in the winter the sun side "feels" warmer than the shade. Sunset is kind of annoying, but sunglasses & a visor or billed cap take care of that.
