$10/month for a Michigan State games package.
$15/month for all Big Ten games package.
No such thing as a "Notre Dame" package since Notre Dame is not apart of the Big Ten, according to BTN.
which, presumably, includes even during the Big 10 hockey tournament. I'm not sure why you are upset at BTN about this...it was part of the deal ND and Big10 cut about hockey.
Not really upset. But definitely surprised when BTN says ND isn't part of the Big Ten, but the Big Ten website lists as the current Big Ten champs. They probably need a better explanation for not offering ND games, as they do indeed have the rights in the post-season (note that they offer it streaming).
My intent was to hopefully prevent others from the run-around I got when contacting BTN.
In the Big Ten tournament, the Big Ten does own the TV rights, even for games at ND.
That's why the game is available on BTN Plus and not NBC Sports Plus. It's also why last year's home games were on BTN.
NBCSN games,NBC stream,SNY,which carried the NBC Chicago package,one
or two on BTN and Fox this or that. BIG must be pissed that ND had
such extensive coverage. I expect them to start crying/legislating
against ND on this. But ND gets more coverage/$$$$ with their ad hoc
network,so screw BIG....I'll listen on UND.com...
