I love the BTN. Mainly because I just moved to Boise from Indy this summer. Maybe if I were still in central Indiana, I'd feel different. But since I'm living outside of the Big Ten geography, it's awesome. In years past I would have had to purchase some sports package like espn full court or whatever they call it. Now the BTN is part of regular satelite programming, and it's in HD. My wife and I miss Indiana, but being able to watch Big Ten coverage helps the homesickness a little.
