If you are anywhere on the east coast in ACC country it will be on TV. I will have to check the channels when I get home but I live in VA and have seen every single game this yr. Only once did I have to stream ESPN3.

Living in VA, you'll probably get the BC/VT game on your local affiliate.

Here's the solution guys, and I've said it before: If you have an HDMI port available AND good Wireless in your house AND a capable smartphone...go to Walmart, get a Chromecast for $35 or so, connect it to your TV, hook it and your smartphone up to your Wireless network, pull up the WatchESPN app, and "cast" it to your TV.

This is how I watch games that come on ESPN3, and I get great streaming (extremely little buffering, about like Netflix), and it comes up about HD quality on my TV as long as the ESPN3 broadcast is the HD stream that they would show on TV.

I have one of the Motorola Droid Maxx phones, and it does better "casting" stuff to Chromecast than my laptop does.

How you watch through your ps3?

My kid's got Xbox Live and WatchESPN is part of that package, I'm assuming PS3 would have something similar. I have watched a couple of games in the past this way.

I have a PS3 and a PSN Plus membership, and there's no app for WatchESPN on there yet. I doubt they'll get one due to Microsoft/ESPN's deal to have the app on the XBox.

I live in VA also near DC.

Ya the only game I streamed was the FAMU game. I have looked several times for this weekend's game and it's not on TV as far as I can tell. We get BC/VT and Syracuse/NC State.

Fing horrible.

Edit: I have comcast

Sorry did not see this, you are right, works awesome, Phone or tablet better than laptop, but all work great!
 
The Cincinnati game (I believe the only other game carried by RayCom) was blacked-out on ESPN3 in Gainesville. Anybody know if that'll be the case this week? Don't have basic cable to watch it on TV...

Here in the Birmingham area I am pretty sure the game will be on channel 21, which I think is CW for us. It doesn't say it's the Miami game on the directv guide but it does say "ACC Game of the Week". So you guys may want to look for something like that on your guides.
 
It's now officially showing up on CW on DirecTV here in Bham.

My U-verse program guide still lists Army-Air Force on CBS 4 starting at 11:30am. Not sure why they haven't updated this yet...
