DirecTV/Versus at an impasse
Since we've had some discussions here about the viability of the Big East on other networks:

That would suck. I still got it on Dish network. I wonder if Cuban's HDNET would ever get into college football. It seems they are doing a ton of MMA fights focusing on men as their main audience. Maybe college football is next? With so many channels out there, someone is always looking for content.

HDNet lost a ton of households a few months ago as I believe Time Warner discontinued their contract with the channel.

Back in the day, HDNet covered Navy games and did some Big 12 games in HD before FSN started producing games for themselves in HD.

While its not an FBS game, the Harvard-Yale game is typically a decently viewed game.
