Does that include ESPN 3? I hope to god it doesn't.

Cue a stream of cheap old people complaining about them not being on OTA channels.

Sweet no more missing games because of American Idol or some other BS like High school basketball due to KFXA not wanting to broadcast week night games.

 

[CornFedIABoy]

Wasn't WOI talking about trying to make a deal with ESPN to locally rebroadcast the lower-tier/ESPN3 games?

 

[MNCyGuy]

I don't think it does. I believe I saw something about ESPNEWS getting some Big 12 games next year, so I would imagine the really lousy games would go there.

I'm just hoping that they're not using Classic for any conference games since that's the one ESPN I don't have.

No ESPN Classic so you are safe.

I'd guess that's all ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU

EDIT: In the article
Essentially, that means the 32 games that weren’t shown on an ESPN network or any other network this season, will move to ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU or ESPNews.

They don't normally use ESPN Classic for live games, they only put late starts games on there if ESPN News is taken already

I know, but they didn't use to put games on ESPNEWS unless there was an overrun, and it sounds like that's going to be a thing now, so I wasn't sure.

Good, I was on the verge of a murderous rampage through the offices of KXVO in Omaha for not showing the Kansas-Iowa State game on Friday night instead of their regularly scheduled reruns of "The Middle".

:realmad::arghh:

I hope none are blacked out like the ISU ku game. I got home yesterday from the tourney ready to watch that game only to find out it was not available due to black out.

Does anyone know if ESPN sells videos of games?

Just get cyclones.tv

 

[CycoCyclone]

effing espnu

 

[ISU_REV]

I have cyclones.tv but it does not come in very well...besides I like to record the games and watch them later.

 

[carvers4math]

If it includes ESPNU, would be nice if that was in the campus cable package.

If you're talking about the Kansas game...it's available on cyclones.tv right now. Full game and condensed version.

Mediacom doesn't offer it over analog or ClearQAM, so ISU would have to outfit everyone with digital boxes. IIRC, students are allowed to rent digital boxes through Mediacom and pay the sports and info package fee; they would not be charged for family cable (this is what I do at my current apartment, which provides family cable).

Am i the only one who LOL'd at this sequence of posts from MNCy?

Online? You can watch games whenever you want.
