Thanks. I figured that out last night by looking at my full guide for DirecTv. 428 is something called Root Sports and I don't quite know what the MASN stands for. I'm going to check today to see if these are a part of the multi-sports pack for DirecTv and then decide to order or not.Falconfreak90 wrote:Tom, Ch 428 is RTPT and 432 is MASN...Redwingtom wrote:What channels are those Freak?

A few of the Fox Sports changed to Root, including Fox Sports Pittsburgh. It is part of the multi sports pack. Root Pittsburgh is channel 659 on Directv.

Re: BG-WVU TV...Dish
Guess I'll have to stay on the computer with espn3.com.... I don't show either 428 OR 432 on my Dish menu.

Re: BG-WVU TV...Dish
Root is RTPT on Direct TV channel 659
MASN is the Mid Alantic Sports Network on Direct TV Channel 640
BG/WVU on both channels. If you've got the sports package on Direct TV you can watch it!

I upgraded to the multi-sports pack on Dish for an extra $7 a month and now get over 60 MORE sports channels. If I'm home on a Sat, I can easily watch at least 50 games thru the day.Redwingtom wrote:Thanks.

Re: BG-WVU TV...Dish
I used to have the sports pack on Dish, but it was only $5.99 a month then. For some reason DirecTv charges $12.99 a month for what seems like less channels. Oh well, the only thing I have seen so far that Dish Network was better on than DirecTv.

Re: BG-WVU TV...Dish
I've also been hearing (or rather reading, on the ESPN scroll) that the game will be shown on the various affiliate stations of the Big East Network. (Which, like the SEC Network, is not it's own separate channel, but a "network" of affiliated stations.) I know at my parents' house in the Dayton area, one of the local PBS stations was a Big East affiliate. I believe we have an affiliated station here in Knoxville too, but have not double checked that. I will be at work most of the afternoon, so will not be watching the game until later tonight on ESPN3. Anyway, it might be something worth checking out for some of you folks if you have an affiliated channel, and if they are carrying this game, just as another option.

Re: BG-WVU TV...Dish
If you are in Bowling Green and want a place to watch the game... One49North will have the game on again. We have the channel and since it isn't on the Altitude network this time we shouldn't have any issues with the feed. I also say this because I would love to see a bunch of Falcon fans at the bar instead of that horrible scarlet and grey combination. I will be there watching it and our kitchen will be open as well. Stop on in if you need a place to watch it and don't want to pay for the channel at home or mess with the internet feeds.

Re: BG-WVU TV...Dish
If we left right now, the wife and I could be there by kickoff...problem is neither one of us is in any condition to leave the house at the moment...ESPN3 it is...unless it gets picked up locally.

Re: BG-WVU TV...Dish
I'm not seeing it on ESPN3 anymore? Anyone else got it?
Re: BG-WVU TV...Dish
Never mind that. Found it.
