I'm about to get a new tv provider. What channels are carrying UAB and CUSA games going forward? I'm confused trying to keep up, lol.

For starters, Al Quieda Sports Network will be on Directv I believe.

Whatever package gives you beIN Sports will make or break the deal for you.

During basketball season I get the ten dollar a month sports tier, channels, that have the UAB games. Generally, there are about twenty games that I can get each season. Then when college basketball season is over, I drop the sports channels until next season.

BEin tv channel 620 on direct tv
very nice channel with a lot of European and Olympic sport
the hd is very nice

I hope charter gets it since they bought Bright House...

all of our games will be on espn3 now, right?

We could ask our commissioner if I had a clue who it is.

We get beIN on Uverse.

I think so, or FSN1, I believe. But I'm probably wrong.

Yeah, FOX didn't bid.

No. C-USA is replacing All Access, which will have large number of games.

So what's the deal with espn3? And with c usa new all access hopefully we can watch games online even if it's on beIN or ASN.

No deal with ESPN3 has been announced, although a limited 15 game or so arrangement is rumored. beIN sports has their own streaming app. ASN games weren't streamed last year so I would not bet on them being available.

Okay, walk me through this. I don't have a cable or satellite provider. Just my interwebs and my phone. Will I be able to watch games?

It pisses me off when they ask for a provider. If I had a provider, I wouldn't be trying to stream it online.

My plan is that it's Iron City's problem to figure this out.

Soothing sounds of David Crane are available.

I man to either be there or watch the games I want on tv or Internet. I figure it out later what platform I use.

They just want to be paid for the product they are selling.
