The Big Ten Network will air six of Indiana's contests this upcoming season, the network announced Monday via press release.

Out of the six games broadcasted by the network, three will be home contests and three will be road contests.

BTN will have coverage of Indiana's Big Ten opener at home against Nebraska on Dec. 28, its home matchup with Rutgers on Jan. 15 and its home contest against Penn State Feb. 1. Road games against Penn State (Jan. 18), Northwestern (Jan. 29) and Minnesota (Feb. 15) will also air on the network.

It's also possible BTN will broadcast Indiana's home contest against Northwestern on Feb. 25 or 26, though that's still to be determined.

BTN Plus, the network's online-only offering, will carry two both of the Hoosiers' two exhibition games as well as two regular season games. IU has exhibition games scheduled for 7 p.m. on November 1 and November 5 against Hope College and Bellarmine, respectively. In addition, IU will host Liberty on Saturday, November 19 at 7 p.m. and Austin Peay on Thursday, December 22 at 7 p.m. on BTN Plus.
