There are reasonable voices on Ca.l fan boards, just not a lot of them.  Here's an 11 page thread on Bear Insider detailing how our rivals really, really hate this.  A writer's hate is cubed if they believe the move in any way helps Stanford.  The first few pages are somewhat reasonable but once the trope that this helps Stanford forms it gets ugly quickly.

Among the interesting things you'll learn is that this move is all a Stanford plot with Sandy Barbour as our sock puppet.  By the end someone, apparently in all seriousness, is suggesting Nevada or Davis as rivalry alternatives due to our deep perfidy.  Some one else suggests we give them $10 million plus all gate revenue for their inconvenience.  Despite this it's a generally held belief that Ca.l will pack Santa Clara, never mind that Cal has struggled to fill their seat allotment at Stanford and was pathetic at AT&T. 

Just dip into this - you'll need a shower if you dive too deep.
