Or go to a bar.This is a "You need to subscribe to this very specific service otherwise you're out of luck or need an eye patch" situation, isn't it?
Not as concerned about Peacock as I am about the KingfishersWe have Peacock. However, some have said the feed was terrible for a game they watched. So. I am concerned.
isn't that a NW question... TV speaking of course I meantUgh. It will be interesting when the season ends how many times we got relegated to the C*ck.

Guess I'll be getting the free trial.
I would be surprised if it is TOO many. While Peacock is clearly an unenviable TV position, NBC also seems to be pushing "decent" games on that platform to try to drive subscription revenue. They have already had Michigan, Penn State and MSU vs. a top 10 Washington team on Peacock so far. In other words, while it sucks and I'm sure it cuts into our ratings, it's not the same as getting dumped to ESPNU. Looking at our remaining games...Ugh. It will be interesting when the season ends how many times we got relegated to the C*ck.
I agree with you 90% of the time @altgeld88 , but not here. MSU has the storyline of the ongoing scandal and MICHIGAN visiting NEBRASKA can provide all sorts of championship history. Illinois (currently perceived by most of the world as "same old Illinois") at Purdue is a big meh to anyone outside those fan bases.Am I missing something or is it not glaringly obvious that our game @ Purdue will be much more watchable and entertaining than both MSU @ Iowa & Michigan @ Nebraska?
SMH @ Fox and NBC. MSU is a corpse at this point. Nebraska is a modern-day Benny Hill episode.
Just as the wages of sin is death, the wages of 5 TOs and multiple short-field PSU possessions is apparently Peacock.
Fair enough, my friend. This is, among many reasons, why I'm not fit to be a TV programming exec. Or intern, for that matter.I agree with you 90% of the time @altgeld88 , but not here.

I don’t think Peacock wants to have a school have multiple games on there unless it has to. They want people to subscribe and then forget they did. Looks like there are 2 more Peacock games unless they add more.I would be surprised if it is TOO many.

vs. Florida Atlantic: 2:30 pm on BTN
at Purdue: 2:30 pm on Peacock
vs. Nebraska: Friday at 7:00 pm on FS1
at Maryland: TBD officially ... however, it was reported earlier this year that it would be 11:00 am on Peacock.
vs. Wisconsin: TBD ... likely to get a decent TV slot. OSU/PSU will get the best one this week, and two games are said to be on NBC - Minnesota/Iowa at 2:30 pm and Michigan/MSU at 6:30 pm. It's possible the Illini/Wisconsin game could be meaningful for the West, and I think they would at least want it on BTN.
at Minnesota: TBD ... it was reported that Iowa/Northwestern at Wrigley would be at 2:30 pm on Peacock, though, so hopefully that is true!
vs. Indiana: TBD ... it was similarly reported earlier that Minnesota/Purdue would be at 11:00 am on Peacock, so hopefully this once again means we are clear of that.
at Iowa: TBD ... but I think this will get a good TV spot. It very well might be for the West in an optimistic scenario for us.
vs. Northwestern: TBD ... definitely possible, but I could see this one being on like ESPNU, lol. We deliver decent ratings, but NU brings literally nothing to the table.
