The Iowa State-Nebraska football game on Saturday, Oct. 25 will be televised via pay-per-view on participating cable systems in Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas City, and nationwide to satellite television services.

Big 12 Special Order Sports, Fox Sports Net’s pay-per-view division, will produce and distribute the game. Fans interested in purchasing the telecast should contact their cable or satellite provider for ordering information and pricing. Kickoff is 11:40 AM CDT from Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Neb.

The game is being televised on pay-per-view because it was not selected for over-the-air broadcast or cable television coverage. Under conference television rules, games not picked up for regular television distribution can only be televised live on pay-per-view.

Participating programming providers will offer the telecast to their customers on a specially designated pay-per-view channel. The telecast will not pre-empt Fox Sports Net’s regularly scheduled programming, the Big 12 football game between Texas Tech and Missouri.

Nebraska football legend Eric Crouch, the 2001 Heisman Trophy winner, will call the action with veteran Big 12 play-by-play announcer Dave Armstrong in the television booth. This is Crouch’s first role as a college football live game analyst. He entered sports television earlier this year as a reporter for KETV in Omaha, Neb. Keith Murphy and Bill Doleman will be the sideline reporters.

An updated list of programming providers that have agreed to offer the telecast follows.
