hey better start getting customers to stream because
Comcast recently dropped it from non Big 10 territories

Comcast didn't even want to negotiate...not exactly the greatest news in the 1st year of their new TV contract.
Big Ten network then become a streaming network in non-big ten states. A lot of big ten fans and alumni will pay to have a streaming big ten network with the choice of multiple games like how the MLB.tv streaming and WWE network works. You will see revenue increase in states like Florida and California via streaming network versus what they got from Comcast.

I HIGHLY doubt you'll see an increase in revenue any time soon.You might see it down the road but it's not a good situation in the short term.

This isn’t public posturing during a rights negotiation either, this is a done deal, per Comcast.
We’ll see what happens to Big Ten Network revenue due to the loss in subscriber fees. Those are the portions of your bill that go directly to the network every month (between $0.39 and $1 for BTN). Networks want to inflate them so they generate more revenue, and cable companies want to lower them.
As that Comcast tweet notes, subscribers can still watch live games (the main leverage that sports cable networks have in negotiations) on Big Ten’s streaming service, BTN2Go. But to do that, fans will need a cable subscription. It’s unclear what will happen to BTN2Go if the network gets blacked out on May 10 for out-of-market customers. For now, Comcast is still listed as a BTN2Go provider.
