Saunders Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Nebraska's game at Washington on Sept. 18 will be televised on ABC, with kickoff set for 2:30 p.m. The announcement was made Tuesday by ABC and the Pac-10 Conference. It's the second Husker game of the 2010 season that we know will be on television. Nebraska's Thursday night contest at Kansas State on Oct. 7 will be televised by ESPN. Nebraska has fared better in the light of day against the Huskies. Last time Nebraska visited Seattle in 1997, the Huskers beat No. 2 Washington 27-14 during an afternoon kickoff. Scott Frost had a big-time first half a week after some were saying Frankie London should be the quarterback. The trip to Seattle in 1992 wasn't near as pleasant. That game kicked off at 9 p.m. central time and Washington unloaded on the Huskers 29-14. When Washington is playing well, Husky Stadium is one of the more difficult places to play. The Huskies were 5-2 at home last year with wins over USC, Arizona, Washington State and California. LJS Link They didn't say whether it was a national or regional broadcast. Update: Some games were announced yesterday, so here's the current TV schedule for that day. Saturday, September 18th North Texas at Army 11:00 a.m. CBSC (HD) Arizona State at Wisconsin 2:30 p.m. ABC / ESPN2 (reverse mirror) Florida at Tennessee 2:30 p.m. CBS (HD) Nebraska at Washington 2:30 p.m. ABC / ESPN-GP It looks like it will be a regional broadcast. USC at Minnesota 2:30 p.m. ESPN (HD) Washington State at SMU 2:30 p.m. CBSC (HD) Baylor at TCU 3:30 p.m. Versus (HD) Boise State at Wyoming 7:00 p.m. CBSC (HD) Notre Dame at Michigan State 7:00 p.m. ABC (HD) Utah at New Mexico 7:00 p.m. MTN (HD) Houston at UCLA 9:30 p.m. FSN (HD) Iowa at Arizona 9:30 p.m. ESPN (HD) Wake Forest at Stanford 10:15 p.m. ESPN2 (HD) Texas at Texas Tech TBA ABC or ESPN This just goes to show why our TV contract blows. A lower ranked Wisconsin gets a crappy ASU team at home, and they get a national broadcast... Quote Link to comment
Overland Park Husker Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Normally the morning and afternoon games are regional. The ABC night games are normally national. Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 Normally the morning and afternoon games are regional. The ABC night games are normally national. Yeah I agree. Here's the BCS "competition" for that day. Clemson at Auburn (Probably CBS) Georgia Tech at North Carolina (Probably ESPN) Iowa at Arizona (Probably Evening ESPN2) Quote Link to comment
Overland Park Husker Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Notre Dame vs Michigan St already has the 8PM slot on ABC Quote Link to comment
VA Husker Fan Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Notre Dame at Michigan St and Also Texas at Texas Tech already have the ESPN/ABC night spots. There's also games like Arizona St at Wisconsin, Maryland at West Virginia, and a couple others that will probably have enough regional interest that ours won't be national. Probably won't be long before sites like http://mattsarzsports.com/football2010.aspx and http://espn.go.com/college-football/schedule/_/week/3 are updated with these games. Quote Link to comment
Overland Park Husker Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Texas vs Texas Tech will be on one of the ESPN channels. I'd look for one of the Big 10-PAC 10 match ups to be one of the other 2:30 ABC game (probably Iowa vs Arizona) Quote Link to comment

Clemson at Auburn (Probably CBS) Georgia Tech at North Carolina (Probably ESPN) Iowa at Arizona (Probably Evening ESPN2) You forgot Arkansas at Georgia and Florida/Tennessee (probably the 330 CBS game).

Vince from ShamWOW Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 This is great news for a couple of reasons. 1. No PPV. 2. 2:30 pm games = a whole day of drinking. Quote Link to comment

SEC games aren't on ABC. They only are on ESPN or CBS, that's why I didn't include them. Also, Clemson at Auburn can probably be removed because it is @ Auburn, which means they are they host school so no ABC. Quote Link to comment
huskerscott Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 This is great news for a couple of reasons. 1. No PPV. 2. 2:30 pm games = a whole day of drinking. Yep, I'll start partying around 9am, then when we whoop their cans, I can keep partyin all night. Although I was hoping it wouldve been a night game. At least it not an 11am game, not that it was possible, being 9am on the west coast. Quote Link to comment
adc7236 Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I imagine this will be a regional broadcast which is bad news for me. I am moving to Big 11 country at the end of the month. Quote Link to comment
craigsker Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I live up I-5 from Seattle in Everett and can't wait to welcome the Husker faithful to the most beautiful state in the Pacific Northwest. I'll be there too. Go Big Red! Quote Link to comment
