The New Mexico State-Nebraska football game on Saturday, Sept. 13 will be telecast via pay-per-view on participating cable and satellite providers. Kickoff for the contest is scheduled for 6 p.m. CT from Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Neb.
Information about how to purchase the telecast, including a list of participating cable systems and satellite providers, is attached. Additional details will be posted on Huskers.com and FoxSports.com, search: Nebraska pay-per-view as they become available.
Suggested retail price for residential purchase is $29.95. Big 12 Special Order Sports, Fox Sports Net’s pay-per-view division, will produce and distribute the telecast.
The game is being televised on pay-per-view because it was not selected for over-the-air broadcast or cable television coverage. Nebraska and FSN are working together to make the game available to fans on television on a pay-per-view basis.
Participating cable and satellite providers will offer the telecast to their customers on a specially designated pay-per-view channel. The telecast will not preempt FSN’s regularly scheduled programming.
Veteran play-play-announcer Ron Thulin (play-by-play) will call the action alongside former Husker Matt Davison (analyst), with Larry Punteney as sideline reporter.
To date, the following programming providers have agreed to offer the New Mexico State-Nebraska pay-per-view telecast. For availability in their specific areas, customers should contact their cable or satellite provider. Check Huskers.com and FoxSports.com, search: Nebraska pay-per-view for updates.
