Big XII Tournament - T.V. Coverage

[wonkadog]

How pathetic is it that our tournament does not have all the games on some "major" network channel of some kind? I would think even the Wednesday night first round games should be on something, but beyond that, the Thursday late game is currently listed as only being carried online on ESPN3.

I like watching the small tournament finals a bunch but it seems odd that a tournament out of such a major conference would not be completely televised. (Just looked again now and the thrilling Iowa-NW matchup that the whole country is waiting for seems to be clogging up ESPN 2 on Thursday night...)

There are 5 or 6 games on the Big XII Network. I'd assume that's part of the current TV deal.

Does anyone know if this will be streamed online somewhere? Need to make plans to catch the game Thursday, either from the office or a long lunch break.

Just to clarify, the game Thursday will only be available via WatchESPN, so depending on the cable provider (most provide WatchESPN) you just need to log in to using your provider log in when prompted to do so.

Or firstrowsports if you don't have access to the ESPN streaming

We play at 11:30am on Thursday and its on ESPN2. The afternoon games are on ESPN2, its the night games that got the shaft for TV coverage. I believe the Friday night games are going to be on ESPNU.

ISU is on ESPN2. But if you don't have access to tv then watchESPN is the only other option that won't give your computer a virus.

I've never used watchESPN, but I'd assume DirecTV subscriptions give access.

I don't believe it does.

Yep, having DirecTv I'm always screwed when I want to watch something on watchESPN. And wow, ESPNU for our semifinals, that's hillarious.

Wow, that's lame, usually Directv is on the ball with those services. Guess it's long lunch break for me.

ISU games would be:

**Thursday at 11:30am on ESPN2
**Friday at 6:00pm on ESPNU (apparently the American Conf. gets ESPN2 at the same time :realmad

**Saturday at 8:00pm on ESPN

No Big 12 Network for us.
