As I watch the latest episode of the greatly underrated (if that’s possible) South of Nowhere on The N and still buzzing over Clay Buchholz’s no-hitter for the Red Sox, let me give you a few links on this Sunday.
Richard Sandomir of the New York Times says Saturday’s gigantic upset of Michigan by Appalachian State as seen on the Big Ten Network was prime-time fodder seen by a minuscule audience. Amanda Hamon of the Grand Rapids Press says area bars that carried the Big Ten Network through DirecTV did very good business on Saturday. Centre Daily Times (PA) editor Bob Heisse in his Back in Happy Valley blog says he didn’t get a good first impression of the network. Dee Miller offers his thoughts on the Big Ten Network taking most of the conference games for itself.
The Examiner’s Jim Williams is back with an entry on the broadcast and sometimes, cable outlets for Baltimore, Washington and the Bay Area’s college football teams.
Larry Stewart of the LA Times writes about the number of national outlets where you can watch the games. Scott D. Pierce of the Deseret News in Utah has an article of his own on the options for Mountain West fans.
That’s it for now. I’ll be back on Monday.
