[Husker] TV weirdness

I agree, however I would venture a guess that name recognition counts
here (more people have likely heard of Baylor than Western Michigan and
Washington State and Oklahoma State are rather well-known programs), as
does the almighty dollar (I'm not sure how but I'd bet it ties in nicely
somehow). And, as much as I hate to admit it, outside of Nebraska and
places where people like myself happen to live, not many people are
concerned with how Bo does in his new job.

I can see why ABC didn't jump on NU's first three games.  But check  
this out:  Fox Sports Net decided NOT to show any of NU's first three  
games on their cable package.  And it gets better.  They picked the  
following two games over Nebraska's first game with Western Michigan.

Wake Forest at Baylor
Oklahoma State at Washington State

Let's see...we'll pass over NU vs West. Michigan (a pretty decent team  
from last year) and Bo Pellini's coaching debut...and instead take  
Wake Forest against the B12 perennial dormat Baylor.

Am I the only one who thinks this is ludicrous?
