And I like how Hunter is in that tweet...bloodbath in Ft. Collins?
So three straight nationally televised night games to start the season...
CSU holds the TV rights for the game and has an opposing player promoting it.
And 5:30 or 6 pm MT kickoffs, not 8pm...
To be fair, CBS holds the rights, not CSU, and this is probably going to be the most profitable game for CBS all season considering what they pay for MWC inventory vs what this game will do in ratings.CSU holds the TV rights for the game and has an opposing player promoting it.
Right now CBS has 10 unannounced B1G games throughout the season and I wouldn't be surprised if this one was earmarked as their top choice of any game all season. Maybe with the exception of USC at Michigan, which has already been announced.
And you have to believe Fox picks up at least one of our Big 12 games so that would be all 4 major networks for the first time since... ever?
CU plays Arizona, Utah, Kansas and Kansas State, all of which are likely going to be preseason Top 25. FOX is definitely picking up one of those
This is so true. Big Noon sucks ass as a kickoff time for marquee games, but they have preyed on our thirst for CFB to make it the top TV slot

They have to put (I think) two MWC games on big CBS every year, and the CinC trophy games (specifically Navy at Air Force) don't count. There's no way they were not taking this game.
Question for one of you on the Cincinnati game. The "ESPN family of networks" would not include ESPN+ right?

Not a ton of big games that weekend, too. You've got Tenn @ Oklahoma, UCLA @ LSU, and Utah @ OSU.
Fox did already commit to broadcasting the Illinois @ NU game, but no time slotted yet.
