Canzano: Comcast Xfinity with first fumble of Big Ten season
Four new schools are affected by blackouts.
"A Washington women’s soccer game on Monday night was blacked out on Xfinity in the Pacific Northwest. And if nothing changes between now and Saturday, Xfinity customers won’t be able to see Oregon and Washington play their first Big Ten football games, either."
Pat Kenny, director of communications for the Big Ten Network, offered a statement:
The Big Ten Network is proud to present an expanded slate of live sporting events featuring the newest members of the B1G conference, however, most Comcast subscribers will not see these games. As the one distribution partner that declined to expand along with us, Comcast Xfinity viewers in many areas will not have access to live broadcasts of the highly anticipated inaugural B1G season games for Oregon, UCLA, USC and Washington.
If you are an Xfinity subscriber and cannot find the Ducks, Huskies, Bruins or Trojans on the Big Ten Network in your area, please contact 1-800-Comcast or go to ALLBTNGAMES.com.
