Not sure who is that posters cable/satellite provider. That might help me out. I'm guessing it's not Comcast. FS1 is looking for higher fees, since the old deal they had with cable/satellite providers was from years ago. (Meaning without the Big Ten TV deal with FOX/FS1)

I remember in August there was a last second deal done with the Big Ten Games to be shown on FS1 with Comcast.

Not sure if you have watched Big Ten football on FS1 this year? My guess is you have not. Best answer I can give is that Sling, which is owned by Dish, does not carry the Big Ten Network, which is majority-owned by Fox. Consequently, the live streaming service does not have the rights to carry certain Big Ten games on FS1, which is also owned by Fox. It’s basically a Fox decision. The network wants Sling to carry the Big Ten Network. So, to put pressure on Sling, it doesn’t allow the streamer’s subscribers to watch Big Ten games on FS1.

Getting around that issue is pretty straightforward.

Thank you—I was wondering if the BTN had the power to squash FS1. The game was shown on FS1 a little after midnight (on sling) and I recorded in full.
