Theory - Stanfurd Stadium downsized to punish Cal Fans?

From the American Thinker blog:

I have to hand it to Stanford. This is quite a coup, a devilishly clever one. Forcing Berkeley fans to buy Stanford season tickets while downgrading the football program is the ultimate revenge. Except, of course, that the football team will be doormats as long as they stay in the Pac Ten. In the end, it is a loser's vengeance.
