Guest WXboy Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Recently moved to the South, will be at Keesler and Maxwell through college football season. Do they show Big 10 games down here, on ESPN or ABC? I am a big Ohio St fan, they are usually on ESPN but I don't know if they show them just in the midwest or show those games down here too. If not do local sports bars have those games on? Thanks for the help. Can't wait for the upcoming season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timbonez Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 They show Big Ten games down south sometimes, but don't expect to be able to watch every single one. Your best bet is to go to a sports bar like disgruntled said. You should be able to catch every game, especially when Penn State beats Ohio State.

Lawman Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Direct TV will give you the "Big 10 Network" for free with any of their basic cable packages. A Must for any Bucks Fan since they dont even know to show The Game down here and look at you like your crazy when you want to watch something other than Bama. Time Warner can go suck and egg. I love my Direct TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JS Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Not sure if I should start a new thread, but along these lines, does anyone know what the availability of watching football is like at the Deid? Last time I was there I never hooked up a TV in my room, so I don't know what channels they have with the basic cable connections in the rooms. Does the game room place there have major sports channels for the big games or anything like that? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slacker Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 The bigger question is why would you want to watch big 10 football when you're now in the land of REAL football- SEC!!! Forget about watching the insignificant and start watching the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odium Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 If you're really desperate you could get someone to plug a slingbox up to their cable system at home in Big 10 Territory and you could watch it streaming over the net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WXboy Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Are we seriously slamming the big ten? I was on here to get a simple answer, as a new user, but now I see its just sec fans who feel they have something to prove. Yes Ohio has a football team, hosting 7 National Titles and 7 Heisman trophies, tied for most. The only other sec school to come close to that is 'Bama, good teams years ago, Utah took care of that tho... Yes the sec is good, I'll give you that, and espn makes sure we hear it day in and day out, quit watching bc thats all they talk about. I don't jump on that bandwagon, I stay loyal to my teams. I Didn't start this treat to start an argument, just wanted to know if I could watch my team down here, I watch sec back home, some good games and great atmospheres, too bad all I got was people slamming me...

Going on recent history, maybe when the big ten doesnt choke in the big games they will get more attention. They went 1-6 in bowl games this year, their one win coming against S. Carolina, a decent program, but far from a dominant anything. They lost to the Pac-10, SEC, Big-12, and ACC, with the one win being against a lower tier SEC team. The past is the past. Show me some results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No slam here, good buddy. I'm all for the Big 10...just ask fellow Badger Spoo. When I read your thread, I assumed that you will be there TDY and hence only have lodging cable service, thus no cable or satellite tv options. That leaves the sports bar. Now that wasn't too hard, and I didn't even slam OSU in the process. Out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WXboy Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 disgruntled, thanks. Ive seen many comparisons b/t the sec and the big ten and going on their histories: nat'l titles, heismans, all time wins and we are pretty close. Both GREAT conferences. Yes the big ten is down the past couple years, go back to the early part of the decade and the big ten was the dominant conf, now they are down, this happens a lot in college football, the sec is on a high now, who knows a few years it could be different. Keep in mind no Sec team has more wins than Mich or OSU. I'm not trying to start a battle here, just have a little respect, I have tons of respect for the sec, but I still love my big ten, Im a loyal fan. I don't look forward to having to go to sports bars in bama trying to watch an osu game, Im sure all the ppl will do is heckle me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When teams/conferences have a down year, they are hard to find on TV when not in their area. People are fickle and want to watch the winning teams. *which makes sense. Who do you care about outside of your own team that you root for? Probably the teams ahead of them to see how they are doing* The only team that defies all logic and would still get all of their games broadcast even if they went 0-11 is Notre Dame.

I don't see how that's a "rediculous" (sic) question. The answer is 0-9. But they have a rich tradition at OSU, no doubt. There is always this year.

Herk Driver Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Are we seriously slamming the big ten? Seriously, you take this interweb thing too seriously. All us southern hicks don't ever watch any teams outside the SEC. No, you can't watch the Big 10 in the South; we don't know what that is. [/sarcasm] too bad all I got was people slamming me... Paranoia, paranoia, everybody's coming to get you. I didn't see anyone slam you personally, but like sandlapper said, you were bound to bring out the cynicism from the loyal opposition.
