OU game [b]NOT[/b] on TV in Toledo

Post by Warthog »

Don't know how I forgot to mention this, but the Sentinel reported Saturday that Chan 13 WTVG would be picking up the OSU-Cincinnati game that day. :x We won't be getting the BG-OU game in BG.

For all the time we spent debating whether the Michigan game was going to preempt us, we didn't even consider OSU...sadly, that's not even a close call.

Un-falcon-believeable. What earthly reason would they choose to air that game??? Ahhh... Michigan-Redskinhawks would get ten times the ratings of that game. Way to ditch the local team anyways.

Oh yeah i forgot...

Also, their Fax machine for press releases is (419) 534-3898 I think I'll make a bogus release and fax it to them.

LOL! Please. if anyone does this, post a copy.

Looks like we'll all need to find a bar with ESPN Game Plan and take over the remote control.

The OSU vs. Cin game is televised regionally on ESPN not on ABC (according to the Ohio State Official Athletic Website). So there still is hope that the BG game will be picked up.

BW3 on Dussel was the ONLY bar around that I know had the ESPN GamePlan last season. Last year we could watch all the college games there. I would imagine that they'd have it again this year, and we could watch the BG game there.
