Unfortunatley I live in Remote part of Colorado and cant get away from work until saturday to head up to the game (I HOPE!!!!)

Does anyone know if Direct TV will be carrying any of the games.....i.e through any of the fox sports channels or other?:lol:

Isn't it disgusting that you can see about a hundred basketball games on all different types of media (cable, satellite, and regular tv) but the NCAA hockey tournament games are part of a scavenger hunt for hockey fans. It's a disgrace. I bought the Direct TV dish a few years ago so I would have more options. Now the local cable company has tied up the Sioux games and I can't see them unless they are on the Fox Sports net or ESPN. I'd be glad to pay for the Sioux games on my dish, but that's not even an option. I tried watching one game on the computer feed from Wisconsin, but that was not very good reception and it was about 2 to 3 minutes behind the actual play. Looks like I'll be going to a local bar, if they will be carrying the game.

If you have Dish or Directv is sounds like you will be able to see the games. For Directv you need to add the sports pack (assuming you don't have it already) which is $12/month (or not too much for just the weekend) and seeing as you say you are willing to pay to watch the games that's an option.

In regards to the Direct TV showing the sioux-game I have checked up on the 3 stations that were previously mentioned and their websites:

NESN - IT's on their scheduled events, though the tv guide with direct-tv shows it being the Maine-Harvard series (i'll go with their website)

http://www.boston.com/sports/nesn/

MSG - does not have it listed on their schedule

Empire - does not have it on thier list

SO far as dirct-tv goes, so far the best bet is with the NESN network. Perhaps the other stations may carry it, but it is thus far not listed in their scheduling guide.

GO SIOUX :lol:
