as you know the Big Ten Network tonight crew will be in Minnesota Saturday August 22. But they will not bring the scrimmage live on TV, they will do a big ten tonight Minnesota practice recap that night. wow, scrimmage and big ten network on the same day. Wonder if Minnesota wanted the big ten tonight crew on this day or it was pre pick.
 

I went to bigtennetwork.com earlier today to see when the big ten football tour was coming to town and noticed the 8/22 date. I'm not really disappointed about them not televising the scrimmage, I'm guessing there will be plenty of highlights on the show that night. I'm very much looking forward to next weekend.
 

Well, I got outta work that day saying it was for religious purposes. Now with the BTN here, oh boy.

ha! nice. so were you planning on celebrating festivus early this year?! ;)


great george costanza quote from that episode:

Costanza: They drove my family out of Bayside, sir (for celebrating festivus).

Mr. Kruger (his boss): Are you making all this up too?

Costanza: Oh, no, sir. Festivus is all too real and I could prove it...if I have to.

Mr. Kruger: Yeah, you probably should.
 

Is this scrimmage going to be a similar format to the spring game?
