F the Peacock. 

[Josh 13,329]

Sitting on "coverage will begin shortly" instead of a different game or highlights.  Solid performance Peacock

[RaceToTheTop 31,661]

Notre Dame now up 26.  Great call staying with that dog of a game.

[BtownStrength 1,596]

ND now up 26. No one needs to watch this

At least Purdon't is getting blistered.

[LamarCheeks 22,493]

Where are we seeing the 7:50 start time? 

I don't see that on IU's Twitter. I don't see NBC revealing that info, either. 

I'm just seeing that we're on the 'Cock -- nothing about the start time.

No. 19 Indiana vs. No. 9 Illinois: Kickoff now approximately 7:50 p.m. per the countdown clock, TV broadcast will start on Peacock, per IU.

[BBTB 86]

I feel like I am gonna miss the kick off but can't stand just seeing the coverage will begin shortly

Then they will do the switch and not tell us  right ?

I have a brand new tinfoil hat for this season and I have a theory that seems to be happening right before our eyes....the national media was so butt hurt that Indiana got in the CFP last season that they have put their collective pinheads together and decided to not promote Indiana in any way, down play our wins, down play our players and our coach....now they may be forced to change their strategy if the Hoosiers win some of these games against ranked opponents, but until then they don't want to put us in the conversation for a spot in the CFP!

I just shined up my tinfoil hat some more, NBC just confirmed my suspicions!

[Jeff Flabjohns 2,899]

There’s no pregame on the peacock either? They gonna just cut in right for kickoff? So stupid 

[RaceToTheTop 31,661]

about to be a 33 point game

[DChoosier 10,191]

NBC isn’t saying anything or running any info along the bottom of the screen about the IU game…WTF

 

EDIT:

NBC just said IU game will be on NBC unless in South Bend, Lafayette etc.

[BtownStrength 1,596]

Don't forget we have the lovely coverage of the 'Cock to look forward to next week as well! 

ND up 33. Pull the trigger NBC

It's as bad as watching "the spinning wheel of death", but glad we have the option of seeing it this way.  I've got the Cubs on my iPad and recording the Gators who will undoubtedly get killed by Miami.

Bad sign:  Montana 63.   Indiana State. 20

Good Sign:  IU. 27.  Old Dominion 17

[Class of '66 Old Fart 93,970]

New commit and hopefully next commit Branham and Taylor at the game.

[LamarCheeks 22,493]

NBC just said for most markets, they're gonna switch over to our game. 

I'm stunned. 

[RoadRage 3,187]

Look at that shot of our stadium....beautiful!
