College football season is always a terrific experience for the fans, including avid supporters of the main contenders such as the Nebraska Cornhuskers. This info is very important especially if you use Dish Network TV service to follow Nebraska games this season, and you are wondering which channel they will be playing on. Below are schedules that will help viewers watch Cornhuskers Games through Dish Network this college football season.
Big Ten Network – this channel is available on cable 410.
Since Nebraska is a member of the Big Ten Conference, you can expect that many of their games during the regular season will be aired on the Big Ten channel and can be viewed by Dish Network subscribers on channel 410, which is in high definition. Football and college sporting events, specifically from the Big Ten are given a wide airing in this channel.
That is, if Nebraska is hosting a home game against a Big Ten foe such as Wisconsin or Iowa or an away conference match-up against Michigan or Ohio State, you can most likely catch it on the Big Ten Network channel on the playing day. As to the specific game broadcasts, you just have to refer to your local TV guides or search the respective channel’s online program guide.
FS1 - Channel 150
Some Cornhuskers games will also be aired nationally on FS1, Fox Sports 1 available on Dish on channel 150, High Definition. In addition to being one of the most important national sports channels, FS1 offers Dish customers live sporting events of conferences from all over the country, in addition to the Big Ten.
The Nebraska games that are picked for the National telecast are always some of the difficult and much-looked-forward-to games in the season. Thus if the Huskers are the victim of a highly-ranked non-conference team or a rival Big Ten team, set your Dish service to FS1 and watch the games live and at night or on Saturday.
ABC - Channel 6/7
Some of the Nebraska football games could also be aired on ABC this season Dish is a provider of HD on either channel 6 or 7 depending on the station in your area. At most what ABC can televise is one or two Cornhuskers games per season and this is normally highlighted on home games that are expected to be played in the afternoon.
Therefore, while it’s not as comprehensive as Big Ten Network or FS1 for the Huskers, there might still be the rare over-the-air broadcast this fall when looking for the game on the Dish line-up.
