BTN to air 2008 Big Ten Championships

Sure, college football season is still a good ways away, but Big Ten fans can get their minds off of said dilemma by focusing on the 2008 Big Ten Championships on the Big Ten Network. Reportedly, the station will broadcast men's and women's gymnastics, men's and women's swimming and diving, men's and women's indoor track and field and wrestling during a six-week span from February 29th through April 5th, and every minute of every event will be aired in high-definition. Things get kicked off at 8:00PM EST on the last day of February when the Women's Swimming and Diving Championships take place from Ohio State's campus -- 'tis a shame you Charter and Comcast folks will (still) be left in the dark, huh?

Even though I see it every day in person, I imagine the McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion at OSU will look incredible in HD.

Not really, most people that care enough about those sports are likely to be on the respective campus anyhow.

I will be watching and I dont live close to the OSU campus anymore.
