Yep, the one thing OSU couldn't do is go 3 and out to start the game, then they give Texas awesome field position and a quick TD. They need to respond here or it could be a long game.
I had to rig up the antenna to watch this since Tegna pulled WOI off DirecTV yesterday. Thinking I'll be switching back to the DirecTV here in a bit as this one is just about over.

Texas is going to name the score today... doing whatever they want. Probably will score 50+.

But I'm still glad OU isn't in it.

Btw... we played Texas about as good as anyone this year.

You take the friday night slot starting 2024, assuming the network is for it, no matter the location.
I guess that's true, but it's also likely a short week of prep. This matters even more with a big conference where you might not have played your opponent before. And it's shortened even more by travel considerations, media responsibilities etc.

It's less than ideal. Especially for our eastern teams. I like where we are at. Dallas is fine.

Who is going to fill the noon slot for Saturday? Toledo and Miami? Makes more sense to move the MAC and ACC to Friday.

You should go Hulu or YTTV and avoid all that bullsh*t. I remember when it happened with Mediacom cable, maddening.

I wouldn’t be upset if Texas made the CFP. I’m assuming it means more $ for us.

Freshman backup RB for OSU (#20 I think) looks pretty good.

I messed around with both of those over at my brother in law's house last weekend and they were both really annoying UI's to deal with. I like my DirecTV DVR setup. Having to sit through these commercial breaks is truly mind-numbing. I rarely sit through commercial breaks for sporting events that don't involve ISU where I want to watch live. Tegna did this same thing to us 3 years ago when we were in the B12 CCG. (edited my post, as I do watch ISU events live at times)

I haven't sat through commercial breaks watching a sporting event since ISU was in this game 3 years ago and Tegna had done the same thing.

As someone who really liked the interface I had before (with Tivo) you get used to the YouTube TV interface.
