At the very least, 4 ESPN games, 1 CBS Sports game, and I imagine the Wisconsin game gets picked up by B1G Network. Everything else will likely be regional or ESPN3. Every November game is at least televised.

Season is creeping up now. Need a FalconFreak countdown!

EIGHTY THREE DAYS TO GO>>>>ROLL ALONG!!!!!!

Not liking Indiana at Noon at all...I know ESPN blah blah blah but with a BiG Whatever team on our turf, should be a 7pm kick under the lights, IMO.

Gotta figure out how to get CBS Sports Network.... And agreed Freak if I'm making a weekend of it flying up not too happy with a Noon start... Guess that just means we'll be in the lot at 7:00!

Noooooooooooooo!

I think I'm going to end up getting tickets again this year, but I agree with Freak. Absolutely asinine to have that IU game at noon and I don't care what ESPN says. They can shove it up their ass as far as I'm concerned...we make peanuts from them anyhow, have the game at 6 or 7 and make it a kickass tailgating party day.

Totally agree. May as well read: Not televised.

I'll take fourth rate commentators and bad camera angles over not being able to watch every time.

I'll take people wanting us on national TV because we are the defending league champions with a strong chance to repeat over no one wanting us on national TV ever because we are EMU or Miami bad every time

Wasn't there a topic about this last year?!!? There is simply no way to tell ESPN to shove it up their ass and still be a part of the MAC. Well, I suppose we could, but it would just be venting with no effect. Is this point lost every so often. It's repetition gets tiring.

As for ESPN3, it's the second best invention to MLB.TV. There's no reason to not watch any BG game now. The announcers are generally bad. The last couple of years I've taken to simply hitting mute. Why do I need two yahoos I've never heard of talking to me about something I can plainly see for myself?

Can't get ESPN3 on Directv. I have Directv and have Time Warner for Internet in which I pay $63.00 a month for Internet and still cannot get ESPN3.

I remember during our game with an FCS school this year (was it Morehead State?), the announcers were going out of their way to suggest BG was on upset alert. It was laughable.

I'm with gmartin having DirecTV and time Warner, this espn3 is no better than no television at all for me.

A for telling ESPN to shove it I don't see how our affiliation with the MAC dictates our out of conference games as well. Its bad enough we take it in the rear to play weekday games all the time. Its really annoying that even our prime Saturday games don't get put in the best timeslots.

All so 15 people can watch on TV...

Can't get it on DISH either...and I USED to be able to hook in via computer, but that stopped last yr. too....so I agree with an earlier post...might as well not have it at all if so few can get access to it.

I am sure you can get a one day pass online to CBS Sports Network...at least you could when Gehrig played at SMU..we paid for the whole season for obvious reasons..but it is accessible online if your cable carrier doesn't carry the channel.
