The mtn was founded by Comcast and CSTV. CBS bought CSTV, now CBS college sports, and thus has ownership of half of the mnt.

Talk has been made of showing games on CBS, but it would have to be worked around the SEC schedule, as they are obviously a higher priority. To not cut into prime time TV hours this means a noon eastern, or 10 AM MT, kickoff. This is unpopular as it would seriously cut into tailgate time.

If the MWC expanded to 12 and added a championship game it would almost definitely be on CBS after the SEC Championship game.

The .mtn really needs to be sold. This is a great time for the MWC to sign a great TV deal and their stuck.

That's what I was thinking. Thanks for the heads up on the channel.

The worst part is since I don't have the channel, I can't record it.

Unless you have Direct TV, or live in the MWC footprint, you don't. The answer?

Buffalo Wild Wings, or an equivalent.

You might need to politely inform them that 616-1 needs to manually entered.

I really want to see this game. I have like 700 channels including both domestic and international sports packages, and HD packages, and I'm 99% certain that I don't have that channel. I'm pretty sure that my provider doesn't carry it at all. That really sucks. I'm trying to figure out a way to see it, but it doesn't look like it's going to happen.
