CLEVELAND--The Mid-American Conference and Fox Sports Net Ohio (FSN Ohio) have partnered for a third straight season to produce the 2005 MAC Gridiron Preview Show, debuting Saturday, August 27, at 1:00 p.m. on FSN Ohio.

It also features interviews with former MAC standouts and current NFL players Ben Roethlisberger, Charlie Frye, Charlie Batch, Josh Harris, L.J. Shelton and Josh Cribbs.

Awesome!

I don't know if anyone else gets ESPNu but they do a good job of covering everything except the MAC, MWC, WAC, etc. You can watch an entire show on the Big Ten yet can't find more than a minutes talk about a nonbcs team.

awesome i cant wait to watch that tomorrow, and yes ESPNU's preview show they talked very little about the MAC which is why i started the post "we need to be BCS" that very night.

It is not showing.

I watched it at 1:00pm in Bowling Green, Time Warner Cable , Fox Sports Ohio Channel 36. Michael Rug-eye was the host.

I made the mistake of going by the guide on DirecTV. Go figure??? They sure had it showing for 2:00 on FSN Ohio and FSN Detroit. Tuned in and something totally different was on. I will ignore the guide and tune in at 5:00.

yea it wasnt on, i'll try again at 5 i guess

right so it wasnt on at 5 or 6 either, anyone with direct tv tell me when its on?? i did catch the end of the BG-Memp game on the U, but i didnt tape it b/c i want the whole thing...yea so any help would be appreciated!

It came on at 5 and was a good show too. Josh, Ben, Charlie and other MAC NFLers spoke about the MAC. Alot of hype talk about BG offense and Omar. Hype on the guys up north and NIU too.

I had my TiVo set to record the show Saturday...it was on 1 hour before it was supposed to air! My TiVo ALWAYS gets it right! (If you don't have it, you must get it!) Anyway...if I remember correctly, Fox Sports Ohio had the scheduling of this show all jacked up last year too! It's supposed to be on a couple more times, so hopefully Fox Sports will get it right just one time!

Directv says it's on again at 1pm today. I hopes it correct because I preset to record FSN OH.
