I noticed that ESPN has the game at 9 listed live, 2 hours. My local channel 20 has the game at 8 listed live, 2 hours. Unfortunately, my ESPN is often blacked out when 20 has the game. DBR has 9 as well, but I know things get moved around. So, anybody know what's going on? ESPN couldn't be playing it on a delay and still saying live, could they? Just don't want to miss any of it, but I won't be around during the game and will have to TiVo it, so I need to get it right. Thanks.

Which means we will be behind some meaningless Big East game, fouling at the end and running late . . . .

Oh well.


GO TO HELL CAROLINA!!!!

It's listed as ESPN/ACC Network. It may be picked up by a local channel. Some TV providers, like Dish Network, have Alternate ESPN channels that sometimes are activated when preceding games go long.

Syracuse/Georgetown is the 7 p.m. game on ESPN followed by Duke at UNC.

Like I said . . . .


(Although this is a quasi-ACC-BE challenge game now)

Thr game is at nine. It's listed on espn but in the acc footprint it's the acc network game. Typically the first unc game is on the regional partnership as its In the middle of the week. That means if you're in the acc region you won't get it on espn because of blackout rules. If that's the case no worries about the first game at seven running long

Exactly! Don't look for the Status Check thread until after I get home from the Miami game Sunday evening, probably around 7 PM. Anything (much) before that would be a fraudulent thread! :cool:

While I know what the majority of readers here are following, I should point out that one Duke basketball team's next game is against the evil, sartorically challenged Smurfs.

(Of course, mentioning sartorically challenged should identify the specific opposing team immediately!)
