FINALLY! JSU gets to play.

Maybe they are cutting out the internet broadcasts to get fans to the games. The opening games needed to be streamed just so people could actually see them. Also a way to entice the fans to want to go to the other games...
 
And I get that, and not opposed to that.

That was my thought. If you want butts in the seats, broadcast Day 1, and that's it. If you broadcast Day 2 (2nd round), but not Day 3 (which is also 2nd round), it makes no sense. That way, each team is guaranteed that a game will be broadcast in some form or fashion. As it stands, JSU, PV, Bama St., and SU men, along with Grambling, TSU, JSU, and PV women won't be seen unless they get to the finals. Even if you do Day 1 for free, a nominal fee for Days 2 & 3 (and even 4 if you so choose), and the national broadcasts for championships. It just doesn't make sense to broadcast half of a round.
 



I'm seeing a lot of people are ragging on attendance but they don't realize if you walked up to the ticket window last night to see the TSU vs AAMU game last night you'd have to pay $30 for the evening session ticket (which was actually two games). That's discouraging a lot of people away when they can just watch it on the internet.

They broadcast the least important teams.... play-in round participants. Maybe that's the rationale.
