In Russia, you don't watch Big Ten Network. Big Ten Network watches you!

I'm personnaly willing to give up any one of the four shopping or three direct-from-Jesus channels if I could get Buckeye football. Think they'll trade?

Yep. The BTN broadcast teams are no worse than the ones that work the ESPN GamePlan games. In fact, the main FOX team that did the Debacle in the Desert worked the Akron game.

The coverage of the game might have been better but the studio guy who came on after the Ohio State game was telling the audience that those who had been watching the Purdue game would go back to that game while the rest of the audience would see?. While he was still on camera and his microphone still on, he got up from his chair and said to one of the studio workers "it would have been nice to know the score of the game". Extremely professional operation

It would been better if had chewed someone out..."Hey, [censored]head, why didn't you give me the [censored]ing score?!"
Actually, Revsine is a pretty solid announcer...it was the director's fault for not cutting away when they should have.

It will have its first year bumps in the road. But I am SOOOOO Thankful for it. And for my little podunk cable company picking it up for no extra charge as well. It's not great, but I have seen worse. Some of the FSN college games are done so bad I can't watch, or I mute the TV. Best part about the BTN is that since it's been on I have seen the 11/18/2006 game 5 times, and the App St./scUM game 3 times
