The start of the 2024 Washington Huskies football season might get disrupted for a few fans. Unfortunately, the Washington Huskies, Oregon Ducks, UCLA Bruins, and USC Trojans are caught up as collateral damage in the dispute between the Big Ten Network and Comcast Xfinity.
The two entities are currently caught up in some sort of contract dispute that, well, is leading to some Washington, Oregon, UCLA, and USC fans being unable to view games from their favorite teams (if those games are being broadcast on the Big Ten Network and they have Xfinity as their cable provider).
As a response to the issue, both sides are trying to make their case for why they’re right. I’m not here to get in the middle of that. All I’m here to say is that the Big Ten Network has put together a tool to help fans of those four teams find out if they are impacted by these media contract issue shenanigans.

Washington Huskies football fans can quickly find out if they are being affected by the contract dispute by going to ALLHUSKIESGAMES.com.
You don’t have to put that in all caps, but it seems like the University of Washington Athletics department likes putting that in all caps because that’s exactly what they did when they shared the link across social media.

Of course, the Big Ten Network and the Washington Huskies (along with the various other entities that are involved in this) would love for you to call Comcast Xfinity and let them know that you’re upset about the matter.
You don’t have to do that, technically. I guess you technically don’t have to do anything, really. But, if you want to take part in sharing your displeasure, I suppose that’s an option for you.
