I thought this was a great graffic. Don't forget Rutgers plays Ohio University Thursday night at 6pm. OU has challenged for the MAC two of the last three years (winning both) but has a new HC (who was the OC last year). Rutgers continues to improve and is supposed to have a really good RB and QB this year.

Pribula plays Thursday. ACC change.
 
There are about 80 college games on TV this Saturday. I can remember the mid 1950s, in Buffalo, NY, when a local ABC TV station was a
reated and raised available channels to 4 or 5. Everyone had rabbit ear antennae in those days.

I remember the 1960s when you got exactly one televised game per Saturday on ABC with the legendary broadcast duo of Chris Schenkel and Bud Wilkinson in the booth. That went on for a lot of years until the early 1980s when CBS...and then ESPN...got in on the action.

Gosh that seemed like heaven at the time. Three games! National broadcasts by ABC and CBS...then top it off with ESPN that evening. Little did I imagine a time when pretty much every game would be available to watch on some outlet or other.

I lived in W PA and with luck, could get Pitt, CLE, and Youngstown stations. On a great day, Buffalo.

But you bring up why PSU joined the B1G. At the time, there were three stations: ABC, CBS and NBC. Later, Fox joined but it took a while to sign affiliates. ND locked up one all by themselves (CBS?). That left two in the eastern time zone. PSU, as an independent, couldn't compete so they joined the Big Two, Little Eight B1G. Had we known about cabel, and later, streaming, we may have never have joined a conference.
