ABC/ESPN College Football map for Saturday

[ThePosse51]

Has anyone seen the coverage map for this week? Living here in Dallas, I'm worried the Iowa-Wisconsin game isn't going to be shown. According to the Star-Telegram listings, the ABC game here will be Nebraska-Oklahoma State and on ESPN, they are showing Georgia Tech at Clemson. Very very very concerned!

The coverage maps usually come out on Wednesdays, but this week's isn't out yet:
College Football TV maps: Week 7 - ESPN

If Iowa/Wisc is not on your local ABC, the opposite game is usually carried on an ESPN alternate, at least that's the way it was this last weekend here in Iowa -- realize that doesn't help you in Dallas necessarily (local ABC aff = Iowa/Mich, ESPN alternate Texas/Neb).

Some games are blacked out if not in your region (ACC games, etc.).

I think the game will be shown on ESPN 2 if it is not an ABC in your region. ABC/ESPN 2 is the normal reverse mirror they use for games. Last week they used ESPN because there was a Nascar race on ESPN 2 for the afternoon time slot.

I am pretty sure that part of the Big Ten's deal with ESPN is in the regions that don't have it on ABC it is shown on ESPN2.

I at least think that is the case.

Check ESPN 2, sometimes the reverse mirror image game gets moved to ESPN2 and if it isn't on that it will be on an alternate channel. The Big Ten contract with ESPN is that if the game isn't on ABC it will be carried on ESPN also known as the reverse mirror image.

Don't worry you will get the game.

It won't be on ESPN2 because I just checked and there is a NASCAR race at 2:30 that will be on

You can always watch it online at JustinTV. It is where I get lots of the games not aired where I live.

I have ESPN3.com but would rather watch it in HD instead of my laptop

 

[Hawk4Life25]

I thought I heard at least in the DM area that the Iowa/Wisconsin game would be on ABC channel 5.

The Nebraska game would be on channel 5.2. Not available for Directv customers but mediacom and over the air customers can see Nebraska play.

65% of America will see Iowa vs. Wisconsin on ABC

Sorry for not understanding.....what do those of us MO Hawk fans get on ESPN if we are in the Neb/Miz region?

 

[uofihawkInation]

If you live in Dallas you will get the game in Standard Def. on ESPN

Same with Miz.

That means I have to watch it on crappy ESPN sandard definition - I know in the past they have screwed up the reverse mirror thing with ESPN HD and ESPN SD out here (I know several po's tOSU fans from last year), lets hope they don't do that again.

Oh how I hate living in SW Iowa.
