Probably 'badly', just like Time Warner cable. :sigh:
I've been resisting getting a satellite dish to get the BTN games, mostly
because there's no 'invisible' place to put one on our house, since it
faces the south.
Nebraska's exposure on BTN will probably be more like Michigan's or
Ohio State's than Northwestern's, with ABC/ESPN cherry-picking most
of the late seasons games and any early season games against decent
opponents, but had I had BTN last year I think I would have gotten about
half of the Northwestern games that way, including the nailbiter
against Wisconsin late in the season. Before the advent of the BTN,
ESPN+ used to carry 3-4 Northwestern games each year, I don't know that
ANY of them would have been on ESPN+ last year.
The games that Nebraska currently does on PPV would probably be the ones
on BTN, and maybe some of the ones not currently on ABC/ESPN. Last year
there were 3 Husker games on PPV, 5 on ABC, 2 on ESPN, 1 on Fox and 1
on Versus.
