What stations are carrying the B1G games next year? Chris Fowler said that next year the game will not be on ABC.
 
I forget what year the new TV deal kicks in, but once it does no Big 10 games will be on ESPN/ABC. The new deal is with FOX, CBS and NBC. That means that the only primetime whiteout games we'll have will likely be carried by NBC since FOX puts their top game at noon and CBS does theirs at 3:30. It's a shame the network rules can dictate things so much, but we might start choosing whomever we play when NBC is the broadcaster as the whiteout game and depending on the network selection process that might end up being our 2nd or 3rd best home opponent like it was this year.

Thanks. I appreciate the information.
