Good to see the Big Ten moving some night games into November. If the MAC can play at night in November, so can the Big Ten.

Why no RU games on ESPN and all on BTN. Btw I live in NJ and don’t get BTN in the same package as NBCSN and History Channel. Screw you Jim Delany.

No night game for Iowa again??? Come on just because we had one bad night game doesn’t mean we will again. We don’t have Vandenburg so we don’t suck anymore so we should at least play Iowa State at night or maybe Nebraska on Black Friday so we can see how cold it can get.
