Big 12's 2nd tier TV deal with Fox could be worth 1.1 BILLION

That is not including the increase in revenue from the 1st tier TV rights with ABC/ESPN expected to happen in 2015. If this is right there is no doubt that Texas, A&M, and OU should get the 20 million they were promised last summer.

I just hope the Texas games are not played on Fox SW. We don't get that here.

Glad we got the TexSPN deal

Do you know if TexSPN is going to be available in your neck of the woods?

I’m unsure whether it’ll make it to DC/MD. Can’t seem to find good rollout info. I don’t get any FOX regionals, just FOX itself.

You don't get the Fox SW feed on Saturday mornings in Ohio?

I almost always get the game on MASN in DC. They usually use the Fox SW feed of a Big XII game.

i think this comment...

…can also mean that given the large presence that ESPN has on the streaming side, even if your cable box doesnt carry the channel, you might be able to shell out some change to get the game online.
personally i dont get jack here in MN through my cable box as far as texas games are concerned, and i always watch the game on the computer, through either espn 360 or the blatantly illegal efforts of some good horns out there.
if espn is smart, they will add this channel on their espn 360 stream and make it subscription-based. i can see myself shelling out a few bucks to see the games like that..

It might be prudent for y'all to close down texspn

before the damage is done, the prudent thing would be to not pursue with the Texspn venture any longer. With the growing prominence of bellwether schools such as Texas A&M and OU, the burnt orange is on the brink of irrelevance yet again as they were through the eighties and nineties.
