The reason Fox Sports can show the UConn games is they own the rights to the Big East Sports and are in the 11th year of a multiyear contract. They have made local deals with at least a couple networks to also carry specific games. SNY purchased to rights to do the UConn Women's Basketball games who rights were not sold to an other network (for example ESPN or CBS Sports). I'm not privy to the wording of the contract between SNY and Fox in regards to in or out of network replays but would assume SNY retains in network replay rights. It is puzzling that SNY does not post replays of their games on YouTube as it would be another money maker but that could also be spelled out in the original contract. Several other Big East games are carried on FloSports.
