They’re much nicer than Fox’s awful NFL graphics I have to say.
Re the Big 10 there’s no game in the schedules next week so it appears Sky’s rights don’t extend to that. They are showing Tennessee State (incorrectly billed as Tennessee, which is like confusing Nottingham Forest with Notts County in American football terms) @ Notre Dame next week. All the American football stuff is moved to SS Mix for the duration of the US Open it seems.

More on the AT&T Sportsnet saga: Fenway Sports Group, the owner of the Red Sox, Liverpool, and NESN, is finalizing a deal to acquire the Pittsburgh feed of the network. Fenway owns the NHL local team, the Penguins. The deal is co-related to the renewal of AT&T's local Pirates rights, whose owners have been in talk with NESN to provide a similar model for Pirates broadcasts to its Red Sox coverage (including a regionalized DTC/TV Everywhere streaming offering).

ESPN, including its broadcasts of the US Open, is unavailable in the US Open media centre due to a dispute between Disney and Charter Spectrum.
Apparently the feed was cut off just ahead of a college football kick-off.

It seems to be more than a dispute - Charter wants to ensure their place in streaming, when Disney is actively pushing the direct-to-consumer model. They threatened to pull out of the entire pay TV space altogether if they can't reach a deal with Disney, and similar disputes will extend to other broadcasters as well.

Not specifically sport related but wouldn’t a prolonged dispute do real damage to affected ABC O&Os given cable penetration in the US? I’m particularly thinking WABC?

Back to AT&T Sportsnet: Their Rocky Mountain RSN is dismissing employees on October 6th, while the channel will operate until the end of the year. This will reportedly leave Colorado Rockies, the MLB team whose rights is still held by the RSN, without an outlet.

The unfair thing here is that viewers can't even switch to getting the content via Disney+ and ESPN+ instead because their subscriptions are tied to their cable account.
