ODU Only Football Game Nationally Televised Sat 12 Noon
ESPN decided over the weekend to televise the game on its flagship network, handing ODU an opportunity to showcase its 4-year-old program on the company's biggest stage.
The Monarchs have played twice on the NBC Sports Network this season, but ESPN, with 99 million households, reaches 19 million more homes.
And unlike most Saturday afternoons, ODU will have no competition from other college games. Army meets Navy at 3 p.m., but that's it for the TV schedule.
"Touchdown Taylor" Go Monarchs
Aim High

NBC Sports is still nationally televised so this would be your third nation game this season not first.
If you really want to nitpick though, ESPN is still not nationally televised as it's not an OTA channel so then you would have no national games shown this season.
See how easy things can change when you narrow or widen the scope of "nationally televised"
