last year, i wound up watching 3 or 4 games on the sports package...every other game was on CBS or ESPN

true - i can watch west coast games and such but i usually tend to watch the games of the week on ABC

are the cupcake games on the internet?

Every game's gonna be available without ppv here in FL, from what I can tell. Maybe you shouldn't live in yankeetown if you're a gator fan? Or find some good team up north to pull for....oh wait...nevermind on that one.

Yeah, we went ahead and got it because Bill wanted to, he likes to watch South Florida games (one of his main clients) and other smaller schools that they don't usually play on the main channels. I was pleasantly surprised we didn't have to pay for UF vs. Charleston So. though...I still don't understand why but not only was it free, it was in Hi-def too. I think next week's game is on that SEC network too.

m7, with the new SEC Contract almost all if not all of our games will be televised in HD...and while it won't be national television, it will be televised on a bunch of regional affiliates across the country.

i paid 120 for it.

I paid $135 for it, so you got a deal!

The new SEC contract has screwed me. I have no way to watch the game this weekend because our local affiliate is CBS and is playing effing tennis. It will be blacked out on gameplan for me, if it's even on gameplan. I will try that channelsurfing site, or I will have to go to work and watch on ESPN 360. I'm so pissed. FSFlorida and Sunsports are showing Iowa vs. Iowa State. WTF is that about? Their executives need to be tied up by their heels and left to hang outside of hornets' nests.

Never mind. FSN Detroit to the rescue. Dish Network Channel 430. Thank goodness.

I thought this week's game was on that SEC Game of the week on one of the independant channels. Anyway, glad you found it Kyle! Watching GaTech beat the crap out of Clemson right now...rock on!

I try to keep my hands clean of ACC football -- there's Maryland a mile up the road, but I haven't gone to see them play in the seven years I've lived here.

But I gotta say, after watching the Paul Johnson offense several times at Navy, I am kind of pulling for Georgia Tech. Johnson's teams are fun to watch -- Navy still is under Niumatololo -- and they fight like hell. His GT beating the Dawgs last November is what I mean. They keep running at your defense until some part of it breaks down or falls off.

i too enjoyed watching GT last night.

TheTodd · Post by **TheTodd** » Fri Sep 11, 2009 7:20 am

their "defense" nearly blew it for them. Is there a good secondary in the entire ACC?

G8rMom7 · Post by **G8rMom7** » Fri Sep 11, 2009 8:13 am

I dunno Todd...I wondered the same thing. We always root for GA Tech...that is the college that Bill's dad grew up watching and he intended on going there until Ray Graves came and talked him into coming to UF. So we almost always root for them.

Wish they were still in the SEC. Are they are the only SEC team we have a losing record against? I know I could google that but I just don't have time this morning. I'd gladly give up Arky to add GT.
