I was reading something on espn college football section.

by wolfmanshowlforever on Jan 24, 2010 2:05 PM PST

it said that comcast tv now owns 51% of of nbc. there was someone who said that comcast owns the right's to mwc games. is that true? or is it direct tv that owns mwc games. if the guy was right the mwc could have game's on nbc tv. that would help alot of it's true. they also had a section of 20 things that would happen to college football in the next 10 years. some were obviously meant to be funny but others rang true with expansion. it said that utah and boise state would be the choices of the pac-ten conference when all this reallignment happens. it also said that the pac-ten will only take research university's. they said utah qualifies for this but boise state would have to make some changes. just something i thought i would share. they were also debating weather or not it would be tcu or byu going to big 12 after the big ten took missouri. interesting stuff.

I need to learn more about our TV deal.

I believe MWC games can now be on NBC, and Notre Dame games can now be on Versus. I’m not positive though. Jeremy wrote a good article about our TV deal here back in October, but that was before the NBC situation.

Is basically CBS/Comcast/Versus own the tv deal. Games would not be on NBC during the current MWC TV deal, but Iunless the MWC becomes a BCS league and the NBC wants more football to supplement their Notre Dame AND the MWC stays with Comcast.
