I think it's fair to say when Boise plays on ESPN, they are watched by 5 times more fans than when BYU plays on VS. "National" broadcast is meaningless. BYU playing on VS might not even attract more fans than when they had local coverage by Sports West.
yes. espn is almost synonomous with college football. nobody surfs up to cstv to find a game to watch, unless they are mwc fans, or univ. of delaware fans (who seem to be on there an awful lot).
