FYI -

In case you didn't see this in the "Only Bench Reserve Left" article:

"Follow BGSU on the Internet Saturday's game is being televised live by CN8 Sports, a member of the Comcast Family. CN8 is available in Philadelphia, Baltimore, and parts of New England and Virginia in about 18,000,000 homes. The game also can be seen in most of Michigan on the Comcast Local Network.

In Bowling Green, a delayed broadcast will be shown Saturday at 11 p.m. and Sunday at 7 p.m. on Wood County Cable Channel 6. In Toledo, BCSN will air a delayed broadcast twice. Check their local listings at BCSN.TV for correct times.

The game also will be available on the internet at CN8.tv via the "Watch CN8 live" link on the left side of their home page. "

I just checked and, apparently, it is free. I was watching a Randall Cunningham interview (or paid adverstisement).

So, for those who can't get to the game go to www.CN8.tv and click "CN8 Live!" not "Watch CN8 live" and enjoy. Let's all hope this works.

I just hope that the site doesn't get so much traffic that I can't get on.

BGSU-Ph.D.:

Thank you so much for helping those of us who can't make it to the game.
Like you, I'm hoping to access this internet telecast.

The New Hampshire - Villanova game is on CN8 now. The picture quality is OK, but not great. The sound is very good. The video is (I don't know the correct terminology, but I think the word is...) seamless.

Works for me :D :D :D :D :D :D !!!!!!!!!!

The video isn't as good as I thought at first, but its free, I can see the action well enough, and the video interruptions are few and far between. So, I'm happy.

Thanks!

To listen to these announcers, you would think they are BG announcers, but I guess when you cover Temple you get more excited about the other team.

I am really impressed with this telecast. These announcers are fun to listen to and the camera work is pretty good even though they are working with fewer cameras than ESPN or ABC would.

Other than the fact that the sideline guy is calling Chukie "Charles Shannon," they also seem to have done their homework. I really wish comcast would do more telecasts of our games.

OK, they are definitely not BG announcers, because the one guy keeps saying Charles SHANNON.

Quick question: How did they score to go up 42-7? I can't get this feed and ESPN is not updating the last score?
