A&M time slot

Look, I'm not arguing with you, I'm just stating something very simply. A lot of us will be at the game and will be TiVoing this game. This nonsense with not airing the beginnings of games has gotten out of hand with The Worldwide Leader, they just think that everyone is aware of, and/or prepared for, some bullsh!ite ESPN News alternative coverage.

I see the issue here. I wasn't thinking about watching it back on replay, his post (at least the way I took it, I could have been wrong) seemed to insinuate that he's sitting on his couch at 9:00 eastern and he can't watch the Miami game because LSU is still being played. That's very easily rectified. But yeah, if you set your DVR to record the Miami game at 9:00 and leave the house, and the first half of the first quarter is on ESPN News or some other ESPN channel, then yeah you're screwed.

I think there is a way to watch it in its entirety on the app, but as far as having it downloaded/saved like you would on your DVR, I'm not sure how that piece of it works.

There is a 0.0000000% chance that the beginning of the game won't be televised. It'll be on ESPNU or ESPNNews, and certainly on the app. It also was probably never kicking before 9:15 anyway. We shouldn't miss much of it on ESPN, but regardless we'll be able to watch it somewhere before the previous game ends and they move our game over to the big network. You shouldn't miss a single play.

Did you really have use all zeros? I was looking for an opportunity to use Jim Carrey's GIF but now I can't.

ESPN dropped the ball on this one. Why would they schedule Miami & A&M @9 when Miss ST & LSU are at 6 for the same network ? There is NO way LSU & Miss State end in under 3 hours and there were NO games scheduled on ESPN for the 3:00 slot. They could have easily scheduled that game for for 3,4 or even 5:00 yet they chose 6:00 for whatever reason.

It is very likely the first HOUR of our game won’t be televised due to the LSU/Miss state game (and very unlikely they move that game to a lesser network). Very **** poor scheduling by ESPN

They’ll just put the start of our game on another channel. Will be a huge pita bc I’m sure half of us won’t be able to access it.

Last time this happened I think most had to scramble to some sketchy stream.
