Doesn't work this way. Uconn@Butler + Butler@Uconn counts as 2 games, not 4.
Also, it's not even 20 extra games (21 with BET) if some of the extra games are replacing OOC home games that would have been on Fox anyway.

Sure, just go ahead and take all the wonder and mystery out of my day. Same neck of the woods, though.MUPanther wrote:FOX Sports gets 20 extra Big East Conference games. Not 40

Plus you get a full slate of UConn women's games that are either saleable either as broadcasts of your own or, at worst, licensed to SNY. All in all they probably get at least 50-55 extra broadcastable games and some leftover stuff to resell. I still don't think that Fox feels the need to do anything with the contract quite yet, though.
