Remember the Outdoor Life Network? Who brought us the Tour de France when Lance Armstrong was dominating year after year (Only Lance Network)? The same channel that is more obscurely known for airing shows like 'L.L. Bean's Guide to the Outdoors' and 'World of Beretta?' Would it surprise you to learn that they've started airing live college football games?
Me too. And it surprised me even more that this weekend, they're airing the Utah game against my beloved Boise State Broncos on Saturday. Hip hip hooray.
Apparently, if the following commerical is any indication, OLN's getting in on the college football action in a deal with the Mountain West Conference and making it hip with an edgy new nom de plume to appeal to the collegiate crowd, Versus. (They even have a whole new section on their website devoted to bulls.) Since I will now be watching the Boise State game, it works for me. OLN, er, Versus, you've earned a viewer.
