Well. I'm going over to a friends house to watch the game on Dish Network- Saturday. One more down. He's just called and watching TSUN and App St tonight. I wonder if this will have an impact on TWC? Prolly not though- huh!?

It's on America's Top 100 and higher which I think is the most basic package.
The OSU game will be broadcast in HD on channel 9467.
Big Ten Network

I don't have Dish, but I just talked to a Dish customer and he said it was considered in their basic service. Sat packages are a little different than cable, but as I understand it from him, this would be an expanded basic service, which is what the BTN wants. He was happy and said it wouldn't cost him anymore money. Here is more Dish Launches Big 10 Network - SatelliteGuys.US

Gee, suddenly companies like Insight and Dish, with no ties to the BTN, are picking it up. What's the next excuse from TW and Comcast?
