TERRE HAUTE —
The Missouri Valley Conference announced Thursday that Indiana State’s regular season finale against No. 12-ranked Creighton on Feb. 25 in Hulman Center has been chosen as the MVC’s “wild card” game that will be telecast on either ESPN or ESPN2.
The game — ISU’s Senior Day — will take place at 4 p.m.
The channel will be determined appproximately seven to 10 days prior to game time. Right now, the game defaults to ESPN, but that is subject to change.
ISU last played a home game on ESPN in 2002 against Illinois State. ESPN’s cameras returned to Hulman Center on Jan. 15 for ISU’s 75-65 loss to Wichita State. That game was telecast on ESPNU.
The game will be ISU”s school-record 12th appearance on the ESPN family of networks, counting ESPN3, its webcast service.
Each year, the MVC sets aside its final weekend as a “wild card” weekend. ESPN gets its choice of a MVC game, followed by Fox Sports Midwest, which broadcasts an additional MVC game that weekend.

As the 12-minute running clock ticked down — one of the concessions made by the football staff to speed the scrimmage up and get players off the field unscathed — it appeared ISU would make it through its spring game more-or-less unscathed.
