WATERLOO (KWWL) -

Dish Network and BTN have reached a carriage agreement just in time for the start of Saturday's football games. Dish removed BTN from its lineup last weekend in a dispute over a carriage agreement. No word on how long the agreement will last. Earlier this month, the two sides reached a short-term agreement that expired last Saturday.
