Ok, how do I watch the game this week?

State game last week was blacked out 0n ESPN3 because it was available in NY and Ct on MSG+ Haven't checked MSG for this coming week.
 
Not to be the bearer of potential bad news, but keep checking ESPN3 Upcoming page. Last 2 weeks, at least in Mass, the SU game on ESPN3 (live) was blacked out. I really have no idea why they bother blacking out internet feeds, especially to very limited parts of the country, but I guess they have their reasons. :noidea:

ESPN3 games are blacked out when a regional cable sports network in the area has the game. It's a contractual thing, TV is protected before Internet. So I imagine that in Mass either NESN or CSNNE was carrying the SU game.

For cuseguy, if there is no over-the-air station carrying the game in CT then you'll get it on ESPN3. Like others suggested, if the small screen bothers you (it does for some) then buy a cheap HDMI cord and plug your laptop into your TV.

The ACC over-the-air network is a vestige of a different time, very surprised it hasn't moved fully to cable yet.
 
Can you connect your computer to the TV via HDMI?

As a more expensive option (especially before Black Friday) you could buy one of those "Smart" tv's with wifi built in. It will definitely be one of my next purchases.

This has been huge for me. Game might as well be televised b/c I connect it to a 32" TV and it is glorious!

I didn't even know TV's came with Wifi now. I can't wait until the day where I am buying shoes that can emit a wireless signal.
 
Well, this is interesting. I live solidly in the green area on the map (SW Ohio) but the game wasn't available on ESPN3.
I ran through all my channels a couple times and it wasn't on tv.
I live in SW Ohio as well, and I watched the game on ESPN3 replay (I was out of town for the game)
 
I live in NE Ohio and the game was on Ohio sports network. Really hoping this game is on As well.

Hopefully it's on ESPN3 or Ohio Sports Network.
Everything would be a lot easier if there was a national SU network.
 
If you have XBOX360 or Apple TV you can watch ESPN3 through those as well.
 
I searched direct tv and wasnt able to locate the game anywhere
 
I am disappointed with the ACC TV setup thus far. I've been lucky in that I've gotten games, but last week our game vs NCST was blacked out on every DirecTV channel except for Fox Sports West. This kind of programming will do wonders for the ACC in the NY/NJ market...

What's the deal with the blackouts?

Really pissed me off, i was at a wedding in DC - fully expecting to watch game on ESPN3 - but to no avail. It was blacked out in my "area"
 
I did. well I looked at the list of the 87 channels listed on the forum. Then I went through the direct tv guide for saturday and never saw the game listed. here in iowa that list showed WHO out of DSM...the guide says soccer for that time slot.

This is an over the air channel.. think antenna..it will not show up on the guide. You will have to switch to TV mode..I do this with the original TV remote. It shows it as a D3 channel so it should be 13.3 where the game will be Saturday. I apologize if I am telling you something you already tried.

I'm watching on a computer too...San Antonio TV is showing it on some low powered sub digital channel this week...usually it makes the regular channel but The AAC with the SMU game got the nod this week over the ACC game.

Of course maybe I'll go to a sports bar...
We can meet halfway between Dallas and San Antonio. Of course I am going to Dallas to visit my son. I just may even miss the game if we are dong lunch or something.

This is the updated blackout map for Saturday's game. Green = ESPN3, Black=blackout area
 
So I guess we should only recruit in the blacked out areas?
 
wow, I'm blacked out...what the hell options do i have now?

Blacked out means no ESPN3. There should be a local affiliate in your area showing the game.
 
Have to work to tomm , how to watch online in Cuse? Or do I have to drag an old school mini-tv w antenna? Good lord, blacked out stream? Who the hell would choose stream over just flipping the channel. What is the point of blackout...still don't get it.

I preface this by saying that I have never attempted to watch a game this way but according to the ACC website you can also watch the game on line live here...
