Go Gophers!!
 


Michigan/Ohio State will always be on ABC/ESPN
 

Well, right but I figured ESPN 2 or U would want a piece of this potential B1G west deciding game with the axe.

That's the 11am game. The 2:30 game is Stanford/UCLA. Someone chose the wrong game.

Correct. Notre Dame and USC likely a 2:30pm game. There's also Florida at FSU.
 

Did BTN have pecking order on this game?
 

Awesome news! Now we won't have to be at the tailgate at 6am and we can pull in at 8! :clap:
 

Definitely surprised this one is on the BTN. Does anyone know if that has the ability to change should both teams win this weekend and the game end up being for the West title? Still a lot of scenarios to play out in the West this weekend but things should be pretty clear heading into the final week of the season.

My mistake. Then I don't see a better matchup for the 2:30 ABC game. It's not close really if you look at the games that don't have TV spots yet. The next best games are probably Florida - FSU or MSU - Penn State, Or ND - USC which is probably an NBC game wouldn't it be?
 

Pretty sure the Florida/FSU and Notre Dame/USC gets the 2:30 and night slot, as they should, if money matters.

Notre Dame home games are on NBC, so because the 'SC game is in LA the game will be on another network.
 



We are not a big draw for TV. Star time is perfect. Who else is going to be there? I am bringing a special beer and some champagne to drink after the game in Madison. When we win!
 

The 2:30 ABC/ESPN 2 & ESPN games are MSU @ Penn State and Baylor vs. Texas Tech in Arlington.

Florida @ FSU and ND @ USC are on 6 Day holds.

I have not looked to see what network has Florida @ FSU, but I am guessing it is the ESPN family. The ND @ USC game will be at night. Best guess is that ND @ USC will be ABC Primetime (Note that Auburn @ Alabama is on ESPN @ 6:45pm) and that Florida @ FSU could be the 11am game opposite Michigan @ Ohio State.

Ohio State and Michigan play their game at 11:00 CT per the request of the schools and the Big Ten. A few years ago it was played at 2:30 CT and drunken fans, especially students, causing trouble was enough that the concerned parties all decided it should be an early afternoon kickoff from then on.

Whoa...fans at a college football game are NEVER drunk and/or disorderly.

I think the last time it was at 2:30 Central was 2006. That was the #1 vs. #2 matchup.
 


BTN? While Michigan St./Penn St. is on ABC/ESPN. We have really gotten the shaft this year.
 

I much prefer our games be on BTN. I know I am supposed to want extra exposure, but there is so much more pre/post game analysis available when we play on BTN. Of course, I'll be in Madtown for the game so that won't matter.

Plus they will actually cover a little bit of the postgame stuff. ESPN hardly showed anything after we beat Iowa.
