With the college football season set to begin, things are getting down and dirty between Time Warner Cable and the Big Ten Network.
…while Charter and BTN have mostly kept their negotiations and dispute civil, Time Warner on Friday sent a letter to UW Athletic Director Barry Alvarez offering to broadcast the UW games against the University of Akron Aug. 30 and Marshall University Sept. 6 on a pay-per-view basis, with UW setting the price and keeping the proceeds, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.
A similar letter was sent to Ohio State University athletic director Gene Smith, the paper said.
