Comcast and Big Ten Network

Good news today for both Comcast subscribers and fans of college sports: Comcast will be adding the Big Ten Network to its repertoire starting in Fall of 2008. Avid college football watchers will be able to tune into the exciting games from the likes of Penn State, Ohio State and Michigan. Apparently, Comcast "initially will make the network available to most of the customers of its expanded basic" and other higher end subscriptions.

The Big Ten Network will be available more readily by Spring 2009. To find out more, visit BusinessJournal. If you don't have a subscription to cable television, it looks like there are more reasons to start shopping this summer.
