Is it true directv is using their spot to show the ndsu/UNO basketball game? Have their ratings with the midco broadcast gotten this low?

No alcohol in lower lever of the x for the final 5? Where did you see this?

So what if und is playing wisco on a cbssn double header weekend and und isn't in the cbssn schedule. Could wisco not air the game on fsn or big ten?? I know these are both considered regional networks but they are available nationally. Can the nchc contract really force a team from outside the conference to not air these games on tv?

I understand this is all about money. How many business owners in this same situation would have handled this the way und has? It's my opinion you don't take this kind of risk and hope all cards fall in place.

The wait and see how it pans out attitude is what is frustrating. Lets hopes this works out? Seriously?

But wasn't und a pioneer in getting this conference started? I think many fans would have liked to see them use their pull in improving und's visibility rather than downgrading.

Very indicative of how much of a player midco sports net is for directv. I hope they prove us wrong !

Get a set of old rabbit ears and the bemidji picture quality trumps the mighty und/midco picture.

Excellent point. Exactly the reason I refuse to subscribe to pay tv now. Why should anyone need to pay for 100 plus channels when you only watch 10 of them? Once this ala carte hits our area, I'll subscribe to someone's service again. For now free tv via antenna works just fine. Maybe the big ten network could really find their true worth in our region. Could be some interesting results.

Has anyone found a good web feed for the games? nutjob.eu works for me but there's no sound.

Absolutely disgusting. And these idiots keep picking places where they know they won't be shot back at.

After seeing the midcosportsnet quality of broadcast so far this year, I'd be shocked if they get a deal done with dish or direct

Hey goon I just got that db4e antenna that sprig was showing. $55 shipped to my door. I'm missing the 2 VHF channels I got with rabbit ears but picked up another mn PBS channel. And it's the Minnesota PBS channel....and in hd! Channel 15-5. Hopeful I can pick up the beavers in hd....at no additional cost to me;) Edit....just read Lakeland plays the games in hd in bemidji and distributes in sd to PBS. But I've never got this PBS channel in hd so maybe there's a chance.

I save the money I'd spend on tv for beer;)

I got sick of paying $100 plus a month for tv long ago. Around grand forka Ota you get CBS, wdaz, wday, cw, wdaz weather, fox, kvly, this tv, and 4 different PBS channels. The following are hd......CBS, abc, fox, NBC, and 1 PBS. And best of all it's free! And thanks for the info on the db4e. I'm gonna give it a try:)

Goon all I use right outside of Gf is a set of rabbit ears and it works just fine. I get PBS 3 for bemidji games on 3 channels. 2.3, 13.3, and 16.3. I forget if these are on VHF or UHF but just try with an old fashioned set that has the rabbit ears and loop on the base. Give it a shot!

Can you pick up Lakeland/PBS Minnesota ota with a set of rabbit ears? I can pick this game up with a set of rabbit ears near grand forks on 3 different channels and the picture isn't hd but is better than what even midco offers in grand forks.

Feed working for now!

Do you have midco? Those of us without midco have noticed a sub-par sd broadcast. And aren't the bemidji Games available hd in much of Minnesota? Here in grand forks I can pick up a great widescreen sd picture ota with a set of rabbit ears. Now their picture has greatly improved this year over last. Kudos to them!

Exactly how it looks on mine. Thanks big!
