Post subject:  Ohio St/NW and Penn St/Michigan

I'm watching the Ohio St/Northwestern game on ABC AND ESPN, and it doesn't appear that the Penn St/Michigan game is on.

What the hell is going on ? Why are they playing the same game on both stations ?

If they don't switch soon, this should be a nomination for Critics next week.

Funny BD. I just noticed this and was gonna post that topic too.

Makes no sense to have the same game on both networks. I'm sure there is some contract rights with Northwestern being the Chicago market so they can't put another game on. I don't know. But I never saw this happen last year. I've never seen it ever actually. Maybe it's a new contractual thing this year.

Oh, ya know what? Michigan is on regular ESPN. Northwestern is on HD ESPN. That's weird.

Thanks Beardown, I just discovered this myself, but I'm still pissed off!

I almost never turn on the non-HD ESPN or ESPN2 so I had to check to find the channel.
