What's with the BTN and D*? They keep switching channels on me. Can someone give me a list of the channels the games are on now? Thanks.

Nebraska fan here. There is a post a ways back about the Huskers record against the B1G teams. Though I would add a bit to that. Here are the life time records with the Huskers wins listed first
Illinois 7-2-1 last played 1986
Indiana 7-9-1 last palyed 1978
Iowa 26-12-2 last played 2000
Michigan 2-3-1 last played 2005
Mich State 5-0 last played 2003
Minnesota 20-29-2 last played 1990
Northwestern 3-1 last played 2000
Ohio St 0-2 last played 1956
Penn St 6-7 last played 2003
Prudue 0-1 last played 1958
Wisconsin 3-2 last played 1974
Excited about the move! How will the Huskers do? Who knows, any who says otherwise is only guessing more than any other year. The pieces are there but there will be so many firsts that how they fit will be anyones guess. In the long run the Huskers will fit well in the B1G and will hold their own. There will be a lot of great games played over th comming years and the Hsukers will win their share and suffer some heatbreaks. One thing I know for sure, it will be fun!
EDIT
As you can see we already establised that we own Iowa so with that out of the way we will have to see where the rest fall!

I wish I could help you but at least someone posted this is link in another thread: Football 2011
Additionally, I'm back-and-forth between Texas and Virginia and trying to figure out where Michigan is playing (on what channel and in what area) is hopeless. I keep showing "TBA" for BTN and ESPN2 for both the Comcast and FiOS listings. Additionally, I just noticed that the ESPN Gameplan is practically useless now that the BTN and other Conference television networks have popped-up. Gameplan was a life-saver for many years, but I don't see myself subscribing to it anytime soon.
I save them (BTN channels) to a favorite list for sports, and almost every time some or all have moved on me. They must know I'm an SEC fan.
Welcome to the discussion thread! Just like you I am clueless as to how Nebraska will fare this year. On one hand they have a very good team. However, on the other hand each and every game is like a bowl game since they have (with the exception of Iowa) very little head-to-head experience playing their opponents. Offhand, I think they'll need a couple years to adjust...but how knows? Regardless, there should be a lot of memorable games!

I like your idea best of what I had heard
As for the person asking about Coaches Names, Woody and Bo were talked about, but that wouldn't be fair to a lot of other coaches.

I thought those were the same ones they have been using ?
610 has ALWAYS been the MAIN channel.
Not questioning you Ice, just pointing it out.
WOO HOO!
The goofs are the only Big 10 team Jim didnt pick
I would gladly pick 'em if I thought they would win.
Wisconsin opens Thursday night and Michigan State on Friday .....
I can see Thursday night, but Friday ?
I'm not a fan of Friday night football - it should be left for High School football. Regardless, I am getting psyched for the kickoff of Big Ten football and thus the college football season.
A Michigan fan and I were talking and came up with a question he couldn't answer. When is the last time both Ohio State and Michigan started a season with a new coach?
And sorry for crashing your Big Ten party.
And sorry for crashing your Big Ten party.
I'm not sure if it HAS happened before.
The Buckeyes went from Woody (1951 - 1978) to Earle Bruce (1979-1987) to Cooper (1988 - 2000 ) to Tressel ( 2001 - 2010) and Fickell, thats it.
60 years, 4 coaches, thats pretty good I think !

You know at some time during the year a legend from the leader division will be playing a leader in the legend division.
