$1.10 a month per subscriber? I think BTN needs to get a bit more realistic on what they can price it at and still be part of a basic tier. At those rates, put it on the Sports Tier Comcast. If NFL Network is anything to go by, the games will have totally forgottable matchups. I love College Football as much as anyone (and subscribe to the Sports Tier) but I totally understand Comcast not wanting to have everyone pay more to subsidize diehard Big Ten fans. There is already more football on ESPN, ESPN2, ABC, FSN, and ESPN+ to fill a Saturday. Want more, get Game Plan or the FSN College networks on the Sports Tier.
