Yes, I am guessing they are waiting to see which game will have the more meaningful impact on the conference race before they decide which one is on ESPN2 and which goes on the U. If both us and BG win our next games, you can bet that we will be on ESPN2.

That is the day of the tip-off marathon. Loser of the game on Tuesday will probably be relegated to ESPN3.

They might put a game on ESPN News.  Their schedule only shows b-ball games on ESPN & 2.

The official release from the beginning of the season gives it as a 12-day pick, just like our Buffalo game was an ESPN2/U pick with Bowling Green and Miami. This one is listed as a U/3 selection, though, so Jughead is likely correct on that front.

News has been an option for limited games on Saturdays this season, I doubt it will be used on a Tuesday night for those purposes, because that's where SportsCenter will be, and the higher ups like it on the air as much as possible.

Because both games are fairly important, I wouldn't be surprised to see it depend on Tuesday's results, but they could also announce it tomorrow (Monday, when they usually announce 12-day Saturday games for the power conferences) if they've made a pick. Guess we'll see (and get used to it -- all of our last four games are 12-day selections).
