Directv will solve your problems.
So I've heard.

Maybe the guide needs to be updated? There is a chance.

That's what I'm hoping for, though the CBJ game seems to be a roadblock, and that's the Thurs. night programming. Might just have to run off to a bar.

Though the dates are apparently wrong, as they just used the bracket from last year I assume.

Well you are in luck!! College Basketball will be on Thursday on FSN Ohio (Cincy)

But now your Frustration level is going to rise. FNS OHIO Cincy is Atlantic 10 country. They are showing the UMASS - Rhode Island Game at 7pm and the Dayton Game @ 930. Friday and Saturday are the same.

Looks like you will be going to a sports bar and asking for Directv Ch 660. FSN Ohio

Excellent news for the first part!!!

I work Friday and the title game (God willing!) will be on ESPN2, so it looks like I have clearance, Clarence!

Roger, Roger!

I think you should call in sick and hit Elmore at about 5pm on Saturday... I'll drive the rest of the way.

Should the games be blacked out, this would appear to be another option in addition to heading out to a sports bar. It's not free, but the MAC is streaming all of the tournament games for both the Men's and Women's tournaments. $19.95 will get you everything, or you can pay for individual games for $6.95/game.

Again, it's not free, but it is an option. (And frankly, I didn't even know the MAC had their own streaming video channel, so I am interested into how much programming this thing actually has during other times of the year and what the cost is. I may have to look into it if it will prove useful enough in following BG from afar next year.)

DISH appears to have it on an alternate channel (450), though it's Joined in Progress.

Now I guess I just pray for no OT in the PAC-10.

My brother has too many papers to write and cannot make it home this weekend. I will definitely be going if we are playing Saturday (and we WILL BE!).

I'll see you at 5:00

And we can all be there to help ya celebrate, G. Just had my BD a couple weeks ago so it's pretty recent.

I have a great feeling about this team right now...everything is there for the taking.
