12 on ESPN networks, 3 on CBSSN, 1 on FOX. Possibility of WSU vs ISUr to be broadcast between ESPN or CBSSN as a wildcard option to end the regular season.

I think you could go ahead and pencil in any 'wildcard' options WSU has this year. I would probably even be comfortable using a Sharpie.

Seems really odd that no one decided to pick up the WSU versus Tulsa game. Matchup between media darling, top 10 WSU and the second place finisher in the AAC last year Tulsa, in the continuance of (what was once) a pretty legit rivalry.

I agree. I really thought this game would end up at least on ESPN NEWS or ESPNU. The AAC has a strong ESPN TV contract and seems to have a lot of games on ESPN NEWS. How they missed this one makes no sense to me

I would agree with this too. I think we can safely say that we will be on national TV 17 times this year in the regular season. The only question is whether senior day is on a ESPN network or CBS Sports Net.

you know things are going quite well when you get on National TV that much, and we know things are going quite well. What a time to be a Shocker junkie, can't get enough of this team, coach and program. This only bodes well for future recruiting...

That is no question. ESPN WILL be here on Senior Day. You can take that to your nearest Wells Fargo.

So there are no games on FSMidwest anymore?

If I understand correctly, they will still carry some games. They will just not be nationally produced and broadcast. However, I could be mistaken. It wouldn't be the first or last time.

I think you're right. The Valley will eventually decide which games they want to put on FSM. Now that ESPN has made their choices, we should find out fairly soon which games will be on FSM.

It appears as though a couple of games (@Missouri St, SIU here) will be on Cox will also be shown on the MVC stations...or vice versa, I am not sure. I am not sure if Cox is producing it and MVC TV will pick it up, or if MVC TV is producing it and allowing Cox to show it.

Looks like no one picked up the WSU at UNI game either. You would think that game would at least be on FSM. So COX gets both the WSU @ Tulsa and WSU @ UNI games. I find that pretty disappointing.

Well, aren't they still in play for FSM (according to @RoyalShock:)?

I saw a tweet today saying that FSM was planning to simulcast two of the Cox22 games.

And those two are the Missouri State road game and the SIU home game, as mentioned in the press release.

It looks FSN games are taking a hit this year with ESPN3 being the primarily play. So essentially, there are more Cox games this year, which sucks because you alienate over half the fanbase.

I guess hoping for the day when WSU basketball is accessible to everyone is long over. Typical.

If you subscribe to ESPN, then you can watch the ESPN3 games. How is that alienating anybody?

As soon as TimeWarner or Dish or Direct TV is willing to pay WSU to air their games, I will switch.

How about you pay the $9 a month for a basic acid subscription? It's the same price as Shocker vision and better production value.
