Mizzou vs. Nevada: National TV a possibility

PrintHurricane Ike is playing havoc with Saturday's schedule of games to be played along the Gulf Coast, and one consequence may be to shift the Missouri vs. Nevada game (currently scheduled for pay-per-view) into Fox Sports Net's national TV slot.

"Hurricane Ike could put Missouri’s 11:30 a.m. game against Nevada on national cable television on Saturday.
"A Missouri official - director of media relations Chad Moller - has told The Star in a text message that MU, Fox Sports Net and the Big 12 Conference are having discussions over whether the game - set for pay per view only at present - could be switched to Fox Sports Net’s national game at the same time.
"Washington State at Baylor is currently in that time slot, but the threat of Hurricane Ike has already caused postponement of the Arkansas at Texas game in Austin on Saturday. The game at Baylor could be postponed as well, although that decision has not been made."

my first thought was...
…awesome! National TV!
My second thought: Wait…WAZZU-BAYLOR WAS PICKED INSTEAD OF US TO BEGIN WITH???

Thrust nunchuk upward!
FSN is required to show Baylor at least once per year
I guess they figured they’d get this out of the way. Probably the same for Wazzu. FSN could have killed 2 birds with one stone.
Baylor’s game is officially being played on Friday night now, so the announcement for Mizzou TV should come before the end of business today.
Nice...
While I would hand out $30 to watch the game, I’m much happier that I might not have to shell out the cash. It will be nice to see the boys against a little friction again, and I’m still banking on the chance to see Gabbert play a series (or two?).
I have a Iowa Hawkeye fan friend that wants to catch their game on TV this weekend, so this will allow us to potentially watch both games at once without having to find a bar that will show both – nice.
