GFG Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 FSN will air the UND-WMU game live, the UM-BU game live and the UMD-Maine game live as well. All on FSN + http://www.foxsportsnorth.com/03/20/12/FS-North-to-televise-first-round-of-NCAA/landing_gophers.html?blockID=691832&feedID=3550 Quote
sioux rube Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Do have the site links? Just want to see it for myself. http://www.foxsportsnorth.com/03/20/12/FS-North-to-televise-first-round-of-NCAA/landing_gophers.html?blockID=691832&feedID=3550 Quote
Eggs412 Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 I like that the Gopher game is on FSN+. We get to watch ours on regular FSN. Quote
GFG Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Woops, UND game is on regular FSN. My bad I like that the Gopher game is on FSN+. We get to watch ours on regular FSN. This is due to the Wild game at 6:30 on FSN and the pregame show starting at 6. Quote
SiouxFanatic Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Woops, UND game is on regular FSN. My bad This is due to the Wild game at 6:30 on FSN and the pregame show starting at 6. That and the UND game starts at 12:30pm. Not going to have major conflicts with a timeslot like that. Quote
kfah1 Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 For what it is worth... if you have an XBox 360 and subscribe to XBox Live Gold you can watch ESPN 360/3 on your television. My kids watched some regional action last year on it (including North Dakota I believe). Not sure how it works as I just pay for it... my kids set it up... Quote
focker Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Great news on FSN picking up these games! Hopefully anyways... Quote

It's pretty simple when you're used to playing with that stuff. Problem is that the quality on live games is terrible. When you watch the replays on there it's usually perfect quality. I watched the UND-Michigan game when I got back from the Frozen Four last year and the quality was perfect on replay Quote
UNDColorado Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Awesome, my internet here in Denver is through Century Link so I cannot get espn3. Good work all around to get this done! Quote

When you watch the replays on there it's usually perfect quality. I watched the UND-Michigan game when I got back from the Frozen Four last year and the quality was perfect on replay I watched the UND/RIT game last year on ESPN3. I hooked my laptop to the TV and the picture was very good (right between HD and SD quality) with only a few minor hiccups. Quote

deansteg Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Any idea what channel that is in Fargo on Cableone? 33 - SD 431 - HD Quote
deansteg Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 33 - SD 431 - HD Should clarify that, those channels are for FSN, CableOne doesn't have FSN+ Quote
luapsided Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Clghckyfan Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Does anyone know what channel the games will be on in Minneapolis (Western Suburbs) with the announcement of FSN picking it up? I looked on Comcast website and scrolled through the stations but didn't see it listed. Sorry probably bonehead question just want to make sure I have it. Quote
focker Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Either 201 or 694 clghckyfan... 694 is FSN+, 201 is FSN HD, 52 if you don't have HD... Quote
Trunk Monkey Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 This is great news as I will be in Vegas and was nervous about not being able to see the game! I would rather be there in person but have had these plans for a long time and what a place other than actually being there to watch. GO SIOUX! Quote
Goon Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 So does that mean that the game will be on FCS as well right? Quote
NDRPinLV Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 So does that mean that the game will be on FCS as well right? That is the big question for us outside the Fox North broadcast area (for me Las Vegas), will Fox College Sports be able to pick up the feed and broadcast it? Quote
82SiouxGuy Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 That is the big question for us outside the Fox North broadcast area (for me Las Vegas), will Fox College Sports be able to pick up the feed and broadcast it? It is very doubtful that FCS would be able to get the rights. UND is not involved in arranging the rights for these games. ESPN has the rights for almost all NCAA championships. In this case they sold the rights to these few games to Fox Sports North. I doubt that they would include Fox College Sports in those rights because they are trying to control which areas have which coverage as much as possible. But I guess that anything is possible. Quote
UNDColorado Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 I have Directv out here in colorado with the sports pack add-on so I am able to get FSN as well as FCS. If the bar you are at in vegas has directv you should be able to see it. Quote

I looked on Comcast website and scrolled through the stations but didn't see it listed. Sorry probably bonehead question just want to make sure I have it. FS North is usually 28 (at least in the SW Burbs) FS NOrth + is 23 in SD and 694 in HD.....neither channel will show the game in the guide but that is the chanenls they are on Quote

The entire Final Five this year was on FCS Central without any problems. However, the guide for the FCS channels is currently saying high school basketball, college lacrosse, and college baseball. Who knows. Quote
