Which isn't bad. Frankly I think the B1G got less star power in the program out of Nebraska than they bargained for, so far.

IDK ... Even with a losing season we made it to bowl game to represent the B1G. That's more than some long standing B1G teams.

Though there is a little something to that, I know what you mean, seams every year had hopes we'd be in the conversation but have always stubbed our toe. I like our trajectory though and with being full partnership in 2017 just in time for the new tv contract, a little more bling can't hurt.

Brian Christopherson ‏<s>@</s>HuskerExtraBC <small class="time"></small>Lot of good details in here about the B1G's TV deal. Remember, Nebraska gets its full share of $$$ in 2017.

Poetic....

Yeah we should still be in the Big 12 watching them pass it around like a bunch of stoners with a well-lit bong.

Love your humour and your prose....right on bro

Any chance on adding more sports, like hockey or lacrosse?

I can see Hockey. Lacrosse is really a North East and Eilite west coast sport. I do not see spending money on something that probably ten people in the whole state of NE even know is a sport.

 

[BHELHusker]

What sport other than men/women's hockey would we be able to add and have chance at being successful?

 

[ChicagoB1GRed]

All these FOX games, will they be on the "regular" FOX channel or FOX Sports? In my neck of the woods, FS is strictly an additional sports package station with Comcast, even with a loaded up cable bundle.

1. Men's Volleyball
2. Women's Hockey
3. Women's Lacrosse
4. Men's Swimming
5. Men's Hockey
6. Men's Soccer

Title IX complicates this hypothetical significantly.
