They televise every game that isn't picked up by ESPN/ABC. Until last week, that was usually 5 games per Saturday. Perhaps it's your provider not showing them that is the problem. On Directv, they have shown every single game.

So what i am reading here is that if ESPN & ABC are broadcasting other BIG 10 games then the BTN cannot show those games on thier network ? I have DIRECTV. During the week on the BTN i do see Hi/lights of all the games in the BIG Ten but not the full televised games per say the Illinois/PennState game.

The alternates have been available to everyone all season, just like last. Make sure your guide is set to all channels if they aren't showing up.

DOH!

Thanks for the reminder.

Now I feel like a complete idiot. I should have remembered that when I added some of the new HD channels and the new location for the BTN.

Has anyone noticed during the last couple of BTN games with Ohio State, the screen would go to a replay of a certain play then comes back to the real action and then 30 seconds into it it skips, like a record. It has done this many time through out the games. Is this the delay in broadcasting? Cause you can not listen to the radio and watch the game at the same time due to the delay.

The skips/jumps are most likely caused by the on-the-fly switching of signal feeds due to drops in satellite signal level. ABC and CBS have those once in a blue moon, but BTN seems like they have it about 5-10 times a game. It's annoying as hell...

It is very annoying, everytime it does it I feel like I just watched the movie groundhog day which was a horrible movie. I don't remember this happening last year and I watched all the games on BTN last year. I would hope that this gets better with age.

Anyone else racking up any points on their website? You can enter raffles for tickets and get some other stuff.

I think we should start a thread to discuss the trivia questions, that way, everyone can rack up points and get free tickets!

Sounds like a good idea to me.

I am up to 15,000 most of that came from an email for 10,000 points. So make sure to use a secondary email account and sign up for the mailings.

Everytime I get to the end of the quiz questions on the bonus codes section I never get a code to use. Not quite sure what is going on with that.

I'm up to 10,500 points. Same thing for me on the damned quizzes. I don't get it. They are worth quite a bit too. Most of my points came from trivia.
