In our defense, ESPN/Fox switch off picking games to play every week, Fox had the #1 and chose us. Quote Link to comment

That has infinitely more to do with our conference's new TV deal that gets us 51 million dollars a year than it does with Riley/Eichorst. Besides - 6:30p kick on FS1 is way better than 11:00a on ESPN2 anyways. 2 Quote Link to comment

Not sure the way you are perceiving this is correct. We are getting a BOAT load of cash to have games aired on Fox/FS1 now... Not positive here, but if that new TV deal didn't go into place, we might be playing at 11:00 AM or 2:30 PM on ESPN/ABC. I'll gladly take the night game. 1 minute ago, Landlord said: That has infinitely more to do with our conference's new TV deal that gets us 51 million dollars a year than it does with Riley/Eichorst.

Street Novelist Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 don't know which is better...afternoon kickoff on ABC, which is free...or a night game on FS1, which requires digital cable Quote Link to comment

That 51 million a year isn't going to get us in front of the eyeballs of potential recruits. It won't get us mentioned during College Game Day. Next you're going to tell me that a BTN night game is better than 11am on an ESPN network. Quote Link to comment

Yeah, but that FS1 night game allows us to actually bring recruits in for the game and electric environment that weekend... Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Eh. I'm all about night games to be honest. Quote Link to comment

Were the only options available an afternoon start on ESPN and a night start on FS1? I don't think that's the case. I'm not sure why you're making this strawman. Quote Link to comment
