Goody, back to back ESPN2 games. This could either be really good or really bad.

845pm Wyo time, meaning if it sucks can go to bed earlier but then again we set the clocks back that night so hmmmmm

Good news for the budget. We are guaranteed 1 million in bonus money with a chance at 1.5 if the Boise game gets picked up as well.

At least the new conference deal is consistently paying us while we struggle to rebuild DC's "Small, Weak, and Slow" defense.

Why would ESPN2 pick that game up?

Doesn't look like there were any other options available for them. The only other West Coast/Mountain games on the ESPN Networks that day are UCLA/Arizona, which is on ESPN, and Texas State/NMSU and Ark State/Idaho, which are on ESPN3.

Unfortunately, I'm sure they'll make one or two references to the game last year.

unlike last year when Fresno mattered, somewhat, they need to stay in the mix i guess....it's always good exposure to get on the mega ship ESPN, no matter what time it's at, (i guess)

700,000 with a chance for 1.2 mil. Friday night games are not worth 500,000 they are 200,000. Unless that recently changed. But still not a bad chunk.

$200k will damn near pay for the trip to Fresno. Very worth it.

Well, I was half right!

This should solidify the verbal recruits.
