No necessarily. Not everyone gets the NFL Network, and many of their Thursday games have been duds.

And of the people who get the NFL Network, I bet a majority will change channels often and go back and forth between the NFL and college games. No real man can resist flipping channels between games.

NFL Thursday night games were much better this past year. As a fan of a BE team, unless it were ECU, a marquee match up, or a game which the outcome of directly effect ECU -- I'd at least be flipping back and forth with the NFL game.

Can't imagine I wouldn't watch at least SOME of the BE game, but I'm a football nut too. The average fan (read non BE team fan) won't be watching much of our games unless they're high quality games IMHO. That's what it's going to come down to though for everything...we put out a top product and we'll have viewers.
