For you Poke fans in the PNW, will these games be on Root up there? Or is Root up there a totally different thing?
 
All games that are live on Root are streamed on the MWC website just go to the site, or watch it live from gowyo.com

Root Sports NW will carry this game. It typically covers the MW games when they're on. Not sure of the Pac12 has a contract w/ them or not. Only way I can see MW games.
 
All the Root games were on the MWC network last year, BUT they were blacked out if your IP address was in the ROOT viewing area via cable or satellite. This is unfortunate for cord cutters like myself...

The Pac12 has their own channel.
So I would be surprised if they have anything with Root.
 
This is decent news, I would be interested to know what the predicted revenue for Wyoming Athletics will be for these 10 games. Might be an interesting bit of information for Burman to take a look at this phenomena, prior to making agreements. I know for one, I'm always interested in the impact financially on my QuickBooks, monthly. If I'm trending up in net income I'm trending in the right financial direction. If I'm not, then I better start looking at more complete data to get the business model moving into a positive territory. Any Pokes out there know how this helps or hinders our cause to increase the bottom line?
 
10 games on TV is pretty dang impressive. There was a time before The Mtn. where you maybe saw 2-3 Wyoming games on TV if you were lucky.

The Mtn. Was actually pretty revolutionary but it was just ahead of its time and didn't have enough distribution. That said, everyone thought we were doomed for television coverage once the network went away. It turns out our exposure and game coverage has increased.

Still miss All-22 though.
