Tonight the Iowa State men play #6 Kansas. The game is on ESPNU.
Tonight the #25 Iowa State women play #1 Baylor. The game is on Fox College Sports Central.
Both teams are playing top-10 conference opponents and the games are not available on basic cable. The games could be exciting or they could be blowouts, but far fewer people will be able to see them than might have a year or two ago on ESPN/2 or Fox Sports. In fact, with a bunch of men’s games on ESPNU this year, there may be fewer viewers in Iowa than when the games were on WOI.
