CSTV who is now owned by CBS has full control over it. The MWC made a deal a couple of years back with CSTV who is paying the teams in the conference i think 110 million dollars over 10 years to be in control of TV schedules. So it is up to CSTV or CBS as to what games they want to televise. This is of course only for MWC teams home games as road games are up to the home team and whoever they are contracted with at the time. So if you have a complaint you need to get a hold of CBS as the University of Wyoming has no say so in it what so ever. Most of Wyoming's games are broadcast on "The Mountain" network which is available on direct tv but it looks like they have chose not to pick up the game , so you can contact them and if you get enough NDSU fans complaining about it something might come of it, highly unlikely but you never know. The tv deal has been a big pain in the butt for most teams and fans in the conference until they finally got this deal on direct tv.
What about video streaming? Does WY even to that and do they control it?
No , it is all controlled by CSTV/CBS . Because of the contract they are not allowed to control any of it.
