SS8609 48 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Last I checked, CBS has Paramount+ and NBC has Peacock (free if you have an Xfinity cable subscription). Fox and ABC share Hulu, but that's about it. Maybe if my scenario where Disney swallows up Fox and Hearst gets ABC with a little drug money from Warren Buffett comes true, Fox will have their dream stream, and Big Ten fans can rejoice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WheelWarrior 79 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 On 8/13/2022 at 12:11 PM, nycnewsjunkie said: Awful Announcing reports that in 2023, CBS will keep its 3:30pm SEC window to fulfill its remaining broadcast commitments to that conference. CBS’ final year of the SEC will be concurrent with their first year of Big Ten football. Is there any chance that CBS will extend the scheduled end time to 7:30 or 8:00? CBS has the worst on-time performance of CFB broadcasts because, no matter what time the game ends, they will always do roughly 10 minutes of the Rocket Post Game Show. Most commonly, I notice the game itself ends around 6:55, but affiliates will not begin programming until about 7:10. I have been following this for about four years now, always briefly tuning into a CBS affiliate (usually KYW, which does news at 7:00 during CFB season) at 7:00 or 7:05, and only once (not counting days with cancelled games) have I not seen the fourth quarter still in the homestretch or a table of talking heads. Why doesn't CBS just schedule to 7:30 and encourage its affiliates to do 6:00 news at 7:30/6:30c? With the way it is now, news crews always have to wait for everything to finish (unless they prerecord), or whatever program airs at 7:00 (or 7:30 after news in many cases) never airing in its entirety. Other networks generally only do post game shows similar to CBS's if they have a lot of time to fill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, I have a feeling most people (myself included) switch over to another Saturday night game by that point anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackledge is one of the best college football analysts out there, and Noah Eagle is a really good play by play guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
