Why does nobody ever want to broadcast the whole schedule? It feels as if these stations have a condescending attitude when in comes to broadcasting their local teams.

:ohno:

Four beats zero. It is a start and if it goes well we might see more games when they sign the next agreement.

The Cal Poly/San Diego State game on Sept. 3rd will be aired on the Mountain West network. That makes five games I will be able to DVR to get me through the long off season.

Great news for CP! :thumb:

Any idea how this is going to fit in with the BSTV feeds? Will they air these broadcasts over the free internet feeds?

I am not sure if KSBY will have a video feed link on their website, but Cal Poly video steamed their home games the last few years and charged for it. Most of the games ended up on the chanel surfing site for free. I am sure they will be part of BSTV in 2012.

I'm sure too as I would think that would have been a part of the agreement to join BSC. I was just curious. On a side note, hasn't channelsurfing been shut down?

That's great. Like you said, 4 is better than none and can lead to more games in the future. Improved exposure should pay off. :thumb: :clap:

Excellent. Improved media exposure in California is vital to Big Sky domination of the FCS. :thumb:
