Will the UCLA game be on direct TV Saturday night?

No. Its my understanding that directv doesn't carry the pac 12 network. Or channel 5 as of the time of this post


RE: Direct TV - 80sTiger - 09-01-2014 09:10 PM

And away we go


RE: Direct TV - memphomike - 09-01-2014 09:26 PM

Well now to find somewhere in town that will have it.

Which causes me to wonder --- what happened to the proposed a la carte cable TV service idea? You remember, where each channel could be bought separately instead forcing you to purchase a package. Guessing the cable people paid off the politicians.


RE: Direct TV - FranklinTNTiger - 09-01-2014 09:47 PM

Does anyone know if one of the local affiliate's will pick up the game OR is this game exclusive for PAC network TV only?


RE: Direct TV - Tiger46 - 09-02-2014 08:15 AM

I am a DirecTV subscriber who gets force fed the SEC channel here in Dallas, but can't sniff the PAC12 because of "contract negotiations". I guess we might get lucky to find a source streaming the game.


RE: Direct TV - Brother Bluto - 09-02-2014 08:16 AM

Direct TV don't even have Channel 5 why would think they would have the Pac12?


RE: Direct TV - Mick Light - 09-02-2014 08:51 AM

They just dropped channel 5 yesterday though, right?


RE: Direct TV - BinghamptonNed - 09-02-2014 08:52 AM

1- I am sure a sports bar in your neighborhood will show the game.

2- Maybe you have a friend that has ATT Uverse..

A la carte has never been on the table. Monopolistic cable and satellite companies do NOT want to offer this as they THINK it will reduce revenues in long run.

Or Dish from my understanding.


RE: Direct TV - Swearingen20 - 09-02-2014 09:09 AM

Is there any chance our game could be on the ESPN gameplan package?

More like people came to their senses and realized what it would have done to the price of programing. Without the ability for networks to package all their channels together the options we have would go down and the price would go up.

PAC12 Network is FoxSports.

The Oregon game was streamed online last week free. Not sure if the UCLA game will be streamed but here is the link.

ESPN3's website doesn't have the game listed when I look at Saturday's games...

It will be streamed... You can get it on a mobile device or a real browser.

EDIT: Unfortunately, it looks like you have to have a Comcast account that actually gets that channel. Bummer...
