New York remains as apathetic to college football as ever. USC-NC: 1.1, Vandy-Ole Miss: 0.8, Rutgers-Fresno State: 0.6.

While what happened last night is a program-changing experience, long run the Big Ten needs UCONN content for the NY market.
Rutgers basketball is nonexistent in New York.
Ratings like this should be sending shudders down Delany's spine. While UCONN football is in the biggest crisis of its FBS life, so long as structural changes are made, UCONN football will improve. Basketball, both men's and women's, is the only boost that Delany can get for New York.
Given the CBS/Time Warner dispute, the FS1 dispute, I don't see how Delany comes into cable meetings without being laughed at with Rutgers as leverage- even for NJ, much less NY.
