Today I made a wonderful discovery! The US networks on our cable (NBC, ABC, and CBS) do actually show college football games on Saturdays! Today there were two Big 10 games, not OSU, unfortunately, but it gives me hope. At lest two of the games are scheduled to be on ABC, and hopefully the OSU/Michigan game will also be on ABC.
This afternoon I made a trip to Wal-Mart with two friends, and before I left, OSU was leading Northwestern by three touchdowns in the first quarter. I didn't think I'd get to hear or see anything else of the game before I got home. Wal-Mart, as it turns out closes at 5pm on Saturdays. Everything shuts down early on the weekends here, but we figured, it's Wal-Mart, they've gotta be open later. Not so. Instead we went to dinner at Boston Pizza. (Incidentally, they don't just have pizza. And there isn't a secret variety of Boston style pizza I'd never heard of before.) We were seated by the bar, and much to my surprise, the OSU/Northwestern game was on one of the TVs! They were leading 52-0 at halftime--which made me laugh--at which point they switched over to American gladiators.
But hey, even getting to watch a little bit of OSU football was fun, especially when the offense was bringing it and the defense was putting Northwestern to shame. Go Bucks!
