Hopefully the lack of TV will prompt more to get to the Dome.

I think it will. I also believe the late start will help.Originally posted by Panther-Sheik View PostComment

I think a really big help will be the fact that we have been pretty sure about this for 3 weeks and people have had a chance to prepare their plans."I think they're very good," Farley said of the preseason top 25 Hawkeyes. "But so are we."Comment

"The Panthers first game may be televised live on ESPNU. Additional information will be coming as it is available."

Wouldn't hold your breath on that one.
What really stinks is that evidently ESPN holds the rights to all the FCS playoff games. And they won't even allow shows such as Panther Plus.
If they were actually AIRING all the games, I could maybe understand. But they're only airing two. ridiculous.Comment

FWIW, apparently the Appy State game doesn't have a kick-off time because they are still negotiating their own TV deal.Comment

Re: #1 UNI(11-0) vs. UNH (7-4)
I could understand not having local-only TV in order to not risk people staying home instead of going to the game, since this weekend is traditionally a lower attendance. But the whole ESPN not allowing the Panther Plus show the next day is bogus.Comment

Re: #1 UNI(11-0) vs. UNH (7-4)
CSTV wrote back that they doubt they will be streaming the game, I would sure hope that UNI sets up something so that people out of state can at least listen to the game !Feel the Power of Purple !!!!!!Comment

Re: #1 UNI(11-0) vs. UNH (7-4)
ESPN controls all video rights. I am not surprised that CSTV will not be streaming the game, I know it sucks but we all know that the NCAA does not think that FCS football has a national following and that nobody really cares...Comment

Re: #1 UNI(11-0) vs. UNH (7-4)
The CSTV thing makes perfect sense, really. They ARE competing channels. KXEL isn't going to let a cross-town FM station carry the game for the same reason.
This TV thing is fishy though. If ESPN has the rights, and precludes local broadcast, why is that true for UNI but not for other schools?Comment

Re: #1 UNI(11-0) vs. UNH (7-4)
I can understand CSTV not being able to have video but I would hope at least that UNI or someone caries the audio online so that people that cant get radio stations from Iowa can at least listen to the gameFeel the Power of Purple !!!!!!Comment

If I can't atleast listen to this game....I'll be really pissed...."We're not an ordinary school," said Fort. "We have tradition. We have a good team year after year. We rebuild, and it doesn't matter who we have coming back."
