B1G network is garbage.

Not only is their football terrible, their network show and game announcers are disappointing. The color guy kept getting confused about which team was which, and kept flip flopping on which team Derek Dooley was employed by.

There network show compared to the SEC one was lacking. Boring.

Several times they goofed with either the down and distance or the score.

When Purdue scored their first points, a TD the chucklehead said the game was tied 10-10 when it clearly showed 10-7 on the screen.

Are they strictly an in-house production or do they partner with Fox?

Being able to draw on ESPN helps the SEC-N immensely.

Unbelievable how many times they called Dooley the Purdue OC. Chumps don’t even know the staff members on teams within their own conference.

Their studio show had a Bahgdad Bob flavor, not really acknowledging how bad a day it was. No chemistry or good humor either, second rate compared to SECN. At least that was my takeaway after watching for 20 minutes.

And the 'chucklehead' was annoying in how hard he was pulling for Purdue.

It is horrible. I've tried to watch other B10 games on that station and it is just unwatchable.

I hope that wasn't their A team.

How they don't know the coordinators for Purdue is simply mind boggling.

They're a partner with FOX.

It was bad I couldn’t stop watching the postgame.

I have had my complaints about the SEC network, but I will stop complaining as much after watching the game and postgame on the Big 10 network.

I don’t think that it is Fox, because I watch almost every Cardinal game on Fox Midwest. The Big 10 should be embarrassed.
