Things to know in advance
* FOX is only scheduled to show Oklahoma vs. Texas on their broadcast network at 12pm ET. The evening is set aside to air ALCS Game 1 and non-network programming in mid afternoon.
* FS1 has a NASCAR truck series race at 1:30pm. Their TV windows are listed for 4pm, 7:30pm and 11pm ET.
* BTN is once again scheduled to carry volleyball in the evening. Their schedule at BTN.com lists two game windows at 12pm ET.
* ESPN has no 3:30pm window. Instead they have windows at 6pm & 9pm ET. This often indicates a doubleheader of SEC games.
* The following games are locked into their start times, or a 30 minute window of start times:
- Rutgers at Indiana (12pm)
- Maryland at Purdue (12pm)
- Michigan St. at Wisconsin (3:30pm or 4pm)
* The following games have been reserved for ESPN Networks, but without a start time
- Michigan at Illinois (ABC, ESPN or ESPN2)
- Hawai'i at Boise St. (Any ESPN platform except ESPN+)
Decisions I made
* I gave ESPN the top Big Ten and Pac-12 choices. FOX, by use of Oklahoma-Texas, had the top Big 12 pick.
* Can Indiana & Purdue play on BTN at the same time? Not unheard of, but it hasn't happened in several years. I found these instances. Most are November instances when the Big Ten was extremely strict on night games, but a couple were in October.
10/27/07: Northwestern at Purdue & Indiana at Wisconsin
11/1/08: Central Michigan at Indiana & Michigan at Purdue
11/8/08: Wisconsin at Indiana & Purdue at Michigan St.
11/7/09: Wisconsin at Indiana & Purdue at Michigan
10/23/10: Indiana at Illinois & Purdue at Ohio St.
11/6/10: Iowa at Indiana & Wisconsin at Purdue
11/19/11: Indiana at Michigan St. & Iowa at Purdue
* If Indiana & Purdue no longer can play on BTN at the same time, make the following changes:
* Also, if Indiana & Purdue can't play on BTN at the same time, my alternate scenario means that all Big 12 selections are FOX Sports & no Big Ten games would be selected by them except for BTN. Its not unheard of FOX Sports to not select any Big Ten games for FOX & FS1. Just look at 9/28 of this season.
* Could also see a reverse mirror on ABC & ESPN2 using the games I selected. Pac-12 & American can be reverse mirrored. See 10/13/18 as an example.

* If Indiana & Purdue no longer can play on BTN at the same time, make the following changes:
- Move Maryland at Purdue to ESPN2, still at 12pm
- Send Iowa St. at West Virginia to FS1 at 4pm
- Put Nebraska at Minnesota on BTN at 12pm
- Move Michigan St. at Wisconsin to BTN at 3:30pm
