Love Dish. But I love My Iowa Hawkeyes more. My have to switch after many years.

No it is not. Same slate as on the HD channel.

At 10 Central, I guess I'll know whether or not I'm ordering DirecTV...

Iowa game on schedule at 3:30, if that means anything.

DISH just pulled all the BIG 10 ALT channels.

Not looking good.

There's been a S***storm on facebook (I've taken every chance to trash btn's antics) so hopefully they listened

 

[Scherrman]

I still have BTN but the title says "important news- press info". Still programming on though.

It's back on

I had changed the channel and logged on to my iPad app to see if they'd forgotten to turn that off. I was able to bring the live BTN broadcast up, so I was hopeful I might be able to watch Iowa/Iowa State on the iPad. Then I saw the last few posts. Don't know if iPad access wasn't restricted or if I was just too slow in checking, but I'm glad it at least back on for the moment.

Technically we don't need the ALT channels today because there are just 3 games on BTN and none of them are simultaneous. Next week is a different story.

I checked that as well, and it was disabled.

As of 11:12AM Eastern the Big Ten Network was working on Dish. Before it came back on there was a splash page with game info on it for this weeks Big Ten games on other channels (of course Dish did have the info wrong by having the ASU Illinois game scheduled for ESPN tonight instead of last night when they actually played the game) which will still have games I am sure. So if this is up and running is this a short term deal or a final long term deal?

Also, in another forum it was mentioned that the PAC-12 network is now on dish, what are the channel numbers?

Boiler Up!

It is on now which I'm glad but will it be on at 2:30 when the Iowa game starts. Go hawks.

It would be nice if they would post what the status is. Did they reach an agreement, is it short term.
