iceberg Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 The NCAA site says 7:30 central is game time NESN is picking up the feed JIP at 9 (or after the Sioux game) For the people who have Victory (not the preview), UW will be shown tape delay at 9 (or after the Sioux game) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
