Overall, a pretty underwhelming TV schedule with some less-than-ideal start times. Sunday at 8 PM for FAU? Midweek 8 PM and 9 PM tips? Brutal. Only six games confirmed on ESPN or ESPN2. Fans who went without getting to see the BC-USC football game on the Pac-12 Network will have the same issue for the basketball game.

And no one wants to televise the UMass or Harvard Good For New England games? Don't they know that these games are Good For New England? But hey, Boston College at Providence to open the season on Fox Sports 1 with Gus Johnson on the call, if that's your cup of tea.
