I was looking at the schedule and noticed that very few games are going to be televised this year. Does anyone have any information on this?

TW-3 schedule won't be out until a few more weeks. We'll have plenty of games on I'm sure.

Finding a game worthy of television on this schedule is akin to finding an oscar winner on public access. I believe someone referred to it as an NEC schedule. No one is going to want to see that outside of die-hard fans of the program

No one is going to want to see that outside of die-hard fans of the program While the schedule isn't what we are accustomed to calling it an NEC schedule really isn't fair. Siena is hosting two of the better teams in the A10 (UMass and LaSalle). That conference is considered by many to be the best non-BCS league. San Diego is projected 4th in their league only behind Gonzaga, St. Mary's and BYU. Vermont is always a tough game along with St. Bonaventure. If we win a lot of games we'll get rewarded with a prime Bracketbuster game as well. Of course I expect to see a tougher OOC schedule in 2013-14 and we should see it led by a loaded Old Spice field in Orlando.

Big Chief hoped big game with Vermont be on light box. Very sad that not happening. Hope to see fourth best team in a middling conference but not holding breath. Will be spending more time with squaw this winter. Very bad medicine.
