Hey, future opponent here (Buckeye Fan). I watched the NU/ TAM game Saturday and I think there definately is something to the idea that the Big 12 is screwing NU. I have no skin in the game at all but even a non biased observer could see the officials were not on the level. The late hit call on Osborne was agregious, but when they picked up the flag on the pi call against A&M it was just blatant. Finish up in the Texas 12 and come on up to a real league. As a Buckeye we are happy to have you. The Big 12 should be ashamed.

I can't wait for next year. I am a buckeye but am pulling hard for you guys to win the Big 12 in your final year. I would love nothing more than for the newest Big Ten member to kick sand in the face of the Big 12. Divisional play and the championship game are going to be fun for years to come. Welcome aboard, Delany got this right.

Hey Huskers, Buckeye here. Welcome to the party. You guys are well respected and a great addition to the Big Ten. Just wanted to explain a little about the BTN. The Big Ten has contracts with ABC/ESPN and then of course the BTN. ABC/ESPN get first pick of games. But never fear, There is no regionalization of Big Ten games. Lets saythe Huskers are only on in the normal husker viewing region and there is another game on ABC in the east, then the NU game will be on ESPN or ESPN2 by contract to everyone outside the region that Husker game is on. As far as the BTN, during non game days it is only one channel, but on Saturdays during the season they may have anywhere from 2-5 games on at the same time. What they have is like 5 BTN channels. For instance on Directv, the BTN is channel 610. But on game day they also have other channels like 620,621,622,623 etc. Each one would have a different Big Ten game on at the same time. Don't remember the exact auxiliary channels but thats how it works. So, if the Husker game is not on ABC/ESPN then it will be on the BTN. Every single Big Ten game is on TV. You will never need PPV again. Also on Directv and most cable companies the BTN is part of the basic package. I am sure Delany will be making this demand in Nebraska shortly. It really is awesome. I am an Ohio guy who moved to Maryland for work. It has been awesome. The BTN is absolutely great. You guys will love it. Again welcome to the party!
