A Gateway Football Conference team will be featured on national or regional distribution in 11 of 12 weekends this fall, including six games that are part of the Gateway-produced television package in 2006. In addition to the league's six-game in-house package, two Gateway teams will be featured on ESPNU in non-conference games, while a league game is featured as part of CSTV's "National I-AA Game of the Week" package. Two games this fall will be broadcast on Sirius Satellite Radio as part of Sports Byline's I-AA National Radio Game of the Week package.

For the eighth-straight season, the Gateway Football Conference is coordinating an in-house television package. The games will be produced for syndication on over-the-air and cable television stations throughout the Midwest. Each of the six conference-produced games will air live or taped on FSN Midwest and on Fox College Sports.

The league's production company is Metro Sports, a Time Warner-owned outlet located in Kansas City, Mo. The league's 2006 package, plus other national and regional telecasts, is below (additional clearances may be added):

The Gateway wants to make up for last years lack of pushing YSU to get into the playoffs, so they want to highlight them on TV for the whole world to see!!!

O ya btw, I think you may be seeing more than just those YSU games.... just an inside tip.

If you guys had a bad showing in the playoffs the only way the Conference wants to make up for it is by having you PLAY BETTER IN THE PLAYOFFS! WKU never needed a SPECIAL tv schedule to excuse poor playoff performaces. Why should you?

Actually the Gateway itself only put YSU on twice. Penn State game is property of the Big Ten and the other is radio.
