Only 2 TV games this year, watched way more games last year… any chance they will still add to it?

The reason for this is GOOD.

In the old leagues (SBS, CUSA) networks bid early and took what they wanted from the inventory and that was pretty much it except if someone got hot and they wanted to circle back and maybe consider a late addition. It was known where you were probably going to air, and then over with.

Now, in the AAC, they have a continued bidding process which resembles what you see in the SEC. This means that we will likely not know in some case until 12 days or so beforehand since they continue to decide what they want. This is when they HAVE to let the host and visiting programs know where they will be appearing by.

Bottom line, yes, we will be on AT LEAST ESPN+ but could also be on ESPN3, ESPN News, ESPNU, or in a longshot ESPN2 or ESPN.

That was insightful! Thanks Rick

Great news and really appreciate the insight Rick. Cant get this news and coverage anywhere else!

Does this mean they can flex the day/time?

Is Ohio is looking like a W?

Don't want to get to far ahead, or overlook them obviously, but from what I have seen tonight (watched the entire game) starting QB or not they could have a hard time with our offense.

This game has been as expected with defensive centered effort on both sides but they aren't really making any needed plays when it counts. We likely have more offensive firepower than SDSU.

Ohio were moving the ball well through the air before QB Rourke got injured and were a much different team without him for sure.

Illinois looking beatable tonight for the Owls or what?

They are actually FAVORED (3.5 PTS) in this game vs Kansas.
