About the Big Ten Network: In August 2007, the Big Ten launched the Big Ten Network, a national network devoted to Big Ten athletic and academic programs. Available to all cable and satellite providers nationwide, with most programs offered in stunning high-definition television (HDTV), the network will allow fans to see their home teams, regardless of where they live.
The Big Ten Network showcases football, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, a nightly studio show, classics and coaches shows, along with more Olympic sporting events exposure than has ever been aired on any other network.
