What is the policy on ESPN picking up games under the FSN contract? Thought it had to do with having the game at a neutral site?

Home team has the broadcast rights, so for this game, our contract with FSN does not come into play.

I believe the Big 12 TV contract pecking order is:

- ABC (ESPN production)
- ESPN
- Fox Sports

unless the game is moved to sunday (a la tech) i doubt it will make ESPN. FSN regional broadcast is still good exposure.

I'm thinking about it, but it's the same weekend as Oregon/LSU at Cowboy Stadium. Decisions decisions....

Really? Oregon LSU?

Cmon...did you attend either of those schools....Did your dad play at either...If the answer is no, then why the [deleted] would you want to watch them over SMU....

[SMU2007]

because we're SMU. where every SMU fan has another team that they support ahead of the ponies. (usually an SEC team)

My brother goes to school at Oregon and is coming out to Dallas for the game. I usually go up to Eugene for a game each season, but figured this would be a fun option instead.

I might go to the game in College Station if I can rally some of my SMU buddies to go too. I haven't made concrete plans yet so who knows
