The Iowa State at Texas game was picked for the nearly-mythical Longhorn Network a while ago, probably as the least-desired conference home game on Texas’ schedule. (Or maybe because after ISU’s win in 2010, Texas didn’t want anyone to see it.)
While nearly no one in Texas will be able to watch this game, Iowans will be able to see it for free on ABC stations. This is certainly an odd turn of events. Will the graphics be LHN’s or ESPN’s? We’ll find out.
