No ND football game would ever be carried on the BTN or any similar league network. These networks mostly showcase the lower tier teams in basketball, along with the Olympic sports. Hockey, soccer, baseball, women's basketball, gymnastics, track etc. Notre Dame's value isn't really tied to a league network. UConn on the other hand, is a dream school for these networks, as it has solid teams in soccer and baseball, and a women's basketball team that is literally the only program that moves the needle, and it does so in a big way. UConn in the Big XII would triple the ratings of OU vs Baylor women's basketball. That's the reality...it lifts everyone. [/QUOTE]
