[NU Sports] NU's first two FB games to be on live TV

[John Labbe]

Is the game at ASU being televised?  The article referenced in the original post would suggest that it's not being televised:

"This year, Northwestern expects all but one of its 11 games to be aired by either ESPN or ABC. The Northwestern-Arizona State game in Tempe will be played at 7 p.m. local time (9 p.m. CDT) and the kickoff will not be changed for television because of the excessive daytime heat that normally exists at that time of year."

Also, on the schedule page, for the ASU game, it says, TV: "none."

So because I go to all the home games anyway, I'm not so excited about the TV coverage.  I really wish the ASU game would get coverage.  Maybe it will get picked up by some hometown network that we'll be able to pick up on something like FoxSportsNetXYZ or whatever, like that game last year that will remain nameless.
