P.S. Please respect My CFB viewing choices thank you & enjoy your CFB weekend everybody.
While TNT isn’t airing a game this week, they will at noon next week.
They should put alternate telecasts of their noon games aimed at a youth audience on Cartoon Network, similar to the NFL games on Nickelodeon.
Very interesting however stupid.
Furthermore, I rather watch The Flintstones & Road Runner & Wile E. Coyote than Z-Man cuckoo idea having a youth alternate telecast during Big 12 game anyway Warner Brothers-Discovery do not need a youth alternate telecast during Big 12 game & they will be excellent without it.
@Kevin – How do you let direct attacks from Dan to Z-Man stay up for days, but immediately removed and censor my comments back to Dan when he makes the same dumbass comments on nearly every post? This is a bit hypocritical censorship, FBSchedules….
Conversations on this article is over to protect further ramblings rather be safe than sorry.
Enjoy your day everybody.
Fox will show 3 B12 (hosted) games in a row and in the 3 prime TV time slots, which must be some kind of record.
The B10 will get 7 games featuring B10 teams on (major) network TV this week, which might also be some kind of record.
Richard NBC will show Big Ten Noon game Maryland-Wisconsin in order to make up lost time after being pre-empted by Notre Dame-Texas A&M that is originally NBC Big Ten regular time slot last Saturday evening.
Richard I also think 12 regular season games airing on the big four over the air networks on one Satutday also must be some sort of record.
Hey, Dan NW-IL-MI, what’s this business about “pre-empted”?
NBC has been showing a couple of Notre Dame games in prime time for something like 15 seasons.
That NBC would continue to do so was a so-called known-known when the B1G inked its deal with NBC.
Patrick T, I think you’re right.
Jesper Bottom line NBC shows Maryland-Wisconsin at Noon to make up Notre Dame-Texas A&M which is NBC Big Ten regular time slot
Have a safe & happy day Jesper.
