I sure as hell hope so. I feel like I haven't seen half the games this year.

Seriously...how is it that every night the Big 10 Network has 3 games like Ohio State vs. Southwest Ohio Tech or Northwestern vs. Des Moines School for the Blind....and yet half of Michigan's games haven't been on any channel this year?

I'm a little peeved that tonight's game isn't on BTN but by my count the only games that haven't gotten coverage nationally or on BTN so far this year are Houston Baptist and AR-Pine Bluff. That's pretty good coverage for hoops IMHO.

Which a lot of people don't get. My issue isn't with BTN but just the fact that I live in Michigan and haven't been able to watch three games already this year.. Tonight makes it four.

The game's at Utah, so the BTN doesn't have the rights to this one. The Old Spice Classic games weren't on BTN either... again, it wasn't a Big Ten event. The two games against HB and APB were on BTN online, there were other B10 games that aired that were considered "better" match-ups.

Comcast's sports and entertainment package has the CBS channel. I was watching it last night since they were reshowing the Florida vs Alabama game. I love seeing Tebow cry.

...but what the hell is CBSsports? And why is the game on such a weird channel that no one receives?

Ok...I just called Comcast and this is my recommended gameplan: -Add the "sports & entertainment" package. It costs about $7/8 per month. -Watch the game tonight. -Cancel the package tomorrow. Comcast will prorate the cost...so it will cost you about $.25 to watch the game. Do enjoy.

Comcast told you you could do this? Don't get me wrong, I haven't called Comcast and I'm not calling you a liar, but that seems almost too cheap and too easy for Comcast to allow. I will definitely try that if this is the case...also, follow up: Do you know what channel CBS College Sports is on Comcast? Thanks.

No worries...it is cheap and easy. I confirmed that they would let me cancel tomorrow and that I'd only be charged for the day of use. On Comcast, I think the HD Channel is 255 (or 256?), the non-HD is maybe 734/743. Look in the guide around both of those channels and you'll find it. Go Blue!

I'd guess they'll cut your access when you cancel, but when the next bill comes around, the full charge will still be on there.

dahblue is right, Comcast will prorate your coverage. So, if you only have the channel for a few hours, you only pay for those few hours. They will not charge you for the whole month. This works for all of their channels, including stuff like HBO

Well, that sounds like the way to go then. My other option is staying at the store I run until 11:00 or later so I can watch on our DishNetwork that we have here. I'll have to get on the phone and get that ordered up. Thanks for the confirmation.

that comcast has a charge everytime you change your service right? Regardless if they prorate it, you still have to pay the service fee.

Turns out I was supposed to have this channel with Time Warner anyways and it just wasn't working for some reason. So, they fixed it for no extra cost. HAIL!
