" Big Ten Network (BTN) and DISH have reached an agreement that returns BTN to the DISH channel lineup. We're pleased that both sides could eventually come together, and we thank fans for their patience."

Don't know what it means for today's games...
 




It's on right now but channel guide info is missing including the alternate channels, so can't yet set the DVR for the game.

Watching now. This has been a boon for me I got some serious freebies from dish. Paying a lot less and get sports pack including red zone free for 12 months and got a whole slew of free ppv movies. I called them and threatened 3 times and was transferred to cust loyalty each time. Got 10 off monthly bill first time and another 5 second time I called them.

This is great, I am one happy Dish customer. I called yesterday at about 4:00 pm and to cancel because of this. I got $10 off my bill for 6 months, sports pack (still don't know what that includes) free for 6 months. HBO, Starz, Cinemax free for 6 months too. And now the BTN is back. I am very very happy. Couldn't have called at a better time.
The woman I talked to yesterday was very nice. We got to talking afterwards. She said she took 20 calls from people in Iowa yesterday calling to cancel because of the BTN deal. Sounds like it finally made a deal get done.
 


Anybody else getting the Ohio State game. Whats the deal ? Also don't have access to BTN2Go anymore. Tried logging in and it said I needed the multi-sports package. I guess that was part of their deal.

Wonder if thats the deal. I have the sports pack free for 6 months. I guess I will find out when that is up.
