Surely if you get one game on ABC, you'll get the other game on ESPN, right? Isn't that what they usually do?

- Start date
That's last years, this year doesn't come out until Wednesday/Thursday. With that said, i'm sure you'll probably get USC/Washington on ABC and Arizona/Iowa on ESPN2
Utah @ Oregon on ESPN, ESPN 2 will be regional for those who are stuck with the other games, so you may be in luck.

no need to worry guys....THIS GAME IS A NATIONAL BROADCAST!!!! it is regional coverage on ABC but in the markets that dont have it on ABC it will be shown on ESPN 2....this is pulled off of huskers.com
The game is set for a 2:30 p.m. CT (3:30 p.m. ET) kickoff from Lane Stadium in Blacksburg. In addition to the ABC coverage, the contest will be carried on ESPN2 in markets that receive a different regional contest on their ABC affiliates.

You will get the game no matter what. You will either see it on ABC or ESPN2. 
Anyone know when this happens, why the HD feed of ESPN2 is blacked out? I can still see the other, non-big 10 game on SD ESPN2, but ESPN2 HD is blacked out.You will get the game no matter what. You will either see it on ABC or ESPN2.

No clue. I've never had my ESPN2 HD blacked out during a reverse mirror game. You should get the game in HD no matter what. I wouldn't worry.

I imagine it is blacked out on ESPN2 if it also happens to be the game showing on ABC. So if you live in Nebraska, it will probably be blacked out on ESPN2, I think. But other parts of the country that don't get the game on ABC will be able to view it on ESPN2.

Let me put it this way: I live in California. Last year, the Nebraska/Virginia Tech game wasn't on ABC or ESPN/ESPN 2. I have no reason to believe it will be any different this year. When I look at ESPN's televised games for this Saturday, they have 2 games scheduled for ESPN 2 at the same time. Depending on where you live, you'll see one or the other. Since California wasn't able to see the NU/VT game last year on either ESPN or ESPN 2 (and the USC game was being televised on ABC), I assume it won't be any different come this Saturday.

I just read a deal on ESPN/ABC that says the coverage maps are posted on Thurday prior to the game. May have to wait till then to see if it'll air in your area or not
