That may be wrong. The schedule lists NJIT vs. us at 8:30 on BTN but also NC Central at Iowa at 9 PM on BTN. But then Wright State at Purdue is at 7:00 on BTN. I guess they can show games regionally like for football but they generally don't do that for basketball.

For the Lehigh and Merrimack games at beginning of year on BTN + , when can we expect times?

Thanks

Possibly they go to regional Scheduling with the OOC schedules. OOC could have 8-10 teams playing on the same day so they might be forced to regionalize. In conference the max number of games is 7 but you almost never have everyone playing the same day so you probably max out at five and usually have no more than four games. It is a Tuesday so it could also be that they have 5 or 6 games but they are all at night so they again gat pushed into a regional schedule. I am speculating of course but the OOC schedule does usually result in more games. Just guessing.

Your schedule got screwed up somehow. NJIT is at 7pm according to Rutgers and you are missing Seton Hall.

I took this from the Big Ten press release from October 5. The NJIT game time must have been a mistake or changed after the fact, and as a Seton Hall home game the Big Ten didn't have anything to do with that game.
 
No cable tv Wed or Saturday?
No Cable for 6 Games. Lehigh, Merrimack, NJIT, Lafayette, U Mass and Maine.
UMass is streaming on Peacock tv, need to register. fee is $4.99/month.
Other 5 games are streaming on BTN+. need to register $10/month for Rutgers only. Cancel after 2 months.
Games came be seen on your Smart Tv, Roku (or other streaming platform), your computer or phone.
 
If you have cable through Comcast you get Peacock for free as well.
 
As a long-time far away viewer, I continue to pinch myself that every single B1G game is on TV - mostly BTN. RU would be on once, twice, three times max in the Big East days.

BTW, DePaul (FS1) and Clemson (ESPN2) also seem to be missing.
