Gophers 0-3 on network TV
4-0 on non network TV (cable or peacock).
 

Something about MN teams and brighter lights more than type of TV.

For sure. The Vikings especially suck on Prime Time TV under the big lights. (and it's not just a Kirk Cousins thing)
 




Network TV wants and get the "best" games.

the Gophers are not a helmet school. If the Gophers are on network TV, it's generally because they are playing a helmet school. So, when the Gophers are on network TV, they are typically going to be the underdog.

the exception is a rivalry or trophy game like MN vs IA or WI. that is something the Networks can promote.

The gophers have played two schools I would consider helmet schools this year

One on cable and one on network tv
 

I saw a tweet that says NBC's two options for next week's Sat. night games are either Iowa/Wisconsin or Gophers/Illinois.
 




I am sure they would take Iowa/wisky
They would’ve taken Illinois vs Minnesota if Minnesota had beaten Oregon, but that was about the only way.


Update:

Gophers 0-3 on network TV
5-0 on cable/streaming


Play on FS1 on Saturday
