    Of course they do. Anyone with half a brain knows that.

      No idea if this is legal. Anyone think it would be a hit to broadcast the UNI/Iowa game on the new HD video board in the dome? I think you could make a pretty neat atmosphere.

          Schools can turn down night game start times, according to this article, so maybe TV doesn't have ALL the say. It's not that far a leap to think that the schools that WANT more night games, in addition to their schedule, will get them.

            The growth with never stop, it will just be allocated across different platforms. The only thing that really threatens it is a cultural shift away from football. (which could happen)

              I thought everyone knew that TV makes most of the choices, but then lots of people were posting as if they didn't know, so I offered my understanding. Apparently I have the correct half of a brain.

              Did my comment really call for a snarky response?

                TH74 thinks he can say & do whatever he wants around here. His specialty is being snarky to UNI fans & sticking up for the squaks. Until someone tosses his ass off the board, he'll continue w/ all thing snarky as there are no repercussions.

                  I'm pretty sure the snarkyness was directed at me, since apparently I don't have half a brain and think that schools still lobby and accept/decline night games all the time.

                      KBGG (1700 AM) in Des Moines has joined the Panther Radio Network for football and MBB.

                      and also, KGCW-TV (the CW affiliate in Davenport) will be airing the 6 home football games as well.

                      That makes the TV list:
                      • CFU 15 and HD415 (Cedar Falls)
                      • KCRG 9.2 (Cedar Rapids market, including W'loo/CF, Iowa City, Dubuque)
                      • WOI Channel 5 D-2 (Des Moines market)
                      • KCAU Channel 9 D-2 (Sioux City market)
                      • KGCW-TV Channel 26 (Davenport market)

                        I wish every conference team had their home games aired that way there would be opportunity for iowa stations to pick up road games.

                          @South Dakota and @SIU are on the conference "television" package, so that only leaves @Indiana State and @WIU

                            The McComb area in western Illinois is pretty deslolate. Not sure of the TV market (Quad Cities, Peoria???), but I can't imagine WIU having much of a following once you get outside Macomb, which is pretty damn small to begin with. In other words, there's no way you stage a live broadcast of a football game and make any money. Other MVC schools have better demographics, proximity to other metros, etc. In Macomb, your target demo markets are probably cattle, cornstalks, and wannabe gangbangers living in Decatur.

                              yeah, I rather doubt there is much hope for TV coverage of the WIU game, and the likelihood of TV for Indiana State isn't much better.

                                Indiana State has online streaming for all of their basketball games, probably a chance of that for football, probably a $8 fee though. Could be the same way for WIU.
