Does anyone know or can post the coverage map for Saturday? I live in big t1e1n country and to get a Big 12 game is nearly impossible...thanks in advance.
 
ABC coverage maps won't be available until Wednesday afternoon. My guess is that most, if not all of Iowa will have the Iowa St game with the Big 10 game being on ESPN or ESPN2. IMO, the only up in the air area when it comes to coverage will be the Cedar Rapids market, but with the reverse mirror for the Big 10, I even think that area will clear the ISU game on ABC.

I wouldn't want to imagine the poop storm that would cause if ISU got bumped so they could show the Big11 game on two channels. But I guess that would be par for the course for Cedar Rapids' ISU coverage.

Why would the Big 10 game be on two channels? Perhaps I wasn't clear with my last post, but my guess is that all of Iowa will have the Iowa St. game on ABC and the Big 10 game will be on ESPN or ESPN 2.

The Reverse Mirror is for the Big 10 and guarantees the Big 10 national coverage of the 2:30 game either on ABC or ESPN/ESPN2.
 
Actually, living in the Cedar Rapids area, if ISU is on tv they make a great effort of getting it on in some shape or form. Due to Iowa playing at 11:00, it shouldn't be an issue. Even the OSU-ISU game last year when Iowa played at the same time, the game was shown live (Iowa being on KCRG channel 9, and ISU being on another channel and I can't remember which one). I will be extremely surprised if it does not get on in the CR market (Linn County has a lot of ISU alum).
 
game will be carried by KCRG channel 9 out of Cedar Rapids, they actually promoted it and covered arnaud being back this week during their sports piece on the 6 o'clock news.
