I live in Philadelphia and for the first time in a long time was not able to view Penn State's opening game. I called comcast and they assured me that they would carry "important Penn State games". I thought Comcast is out of touch with Penn State fans. Every game is a big game if you are a fan of the Nittany Lions. I vowed to myself that if Comcast did not carry the bigten network this year I would be switching to DirecTV.

The rest of the country outside of IN is not very interested in that game. I gaurantee you that if Auburn had played GA that what the country is interested in.
