Not bad. I count 12 UAB games in all, but I easily could have missed one or two.

I think it's 13 televised games plus the rest of the battle for Atlantis tournament.

RE: CUSA TV Basketball Schedule
Very pleased with the coverage and lineup... I really like the American Sports Network. Probably the only positive thing I can say about Banowsky as Commissioner. However, it made me realize, again, just how far we've fallen as a conference with our Championship game going from Nationally televised on CBS to being on Fox Sports 1.

Much better time slot than on CBS, though. No more 11 AM ET / 9 AM El Paso

Every game of the Battle 4 Atlantis is televised so 15 guaranteed.

Fox Sports 1 is distributed nationally. MLB playoffs got moved to FS1, so it's not the doldrums that you make it out to be.

Yep. I think it's more widely available than CBS Sports Network. FS1 is in my basic package, CBS SN requires a higher tier.

Same here. I have fs1 and nbcsn but no cbs sports.(this works for me because of the premier league). I think most people today consider basic cable to be much different than what it was 20 years ago.

Not having fox sports 1 is like not having espn. It just doesn't happen.

It's not as great as you think either. I have the sports package with Dish and can watch all of our ASN televised games, but Fox Sports 1 isn't included in the sports package or my coverage tier (which is a required level to get the sports package).
I have Fox College Sports, FS2, all the ASN channels, CBS College Sports...but no FS1...tell me how that works?

I like the TV schedule. Lots of exposure there. However, the only game I can get with my hotel's lineup is the ESPN2 UAB @UNC game.

I liked it on CBS because, no matter what cable provider or plan you have, or even if you don't have cable at all... you could get the game.

ASN games are on broadcast channels. You can get the ASN games with a free over the air antenna.
On Dish there is no package that has CBS SN but doesn't have Fox Sports. You have to have the "Top 200" to get FS1, which is all of $5 more a month than "Top 120+" although looking at this chart I found you then lose FS2. Dish seems really complicated, so, I guess I would just switch away from them. With Charter FS1 is in the base package.

For Directv, CBS SN is not on the basic package (from what I remember).
You have to go up a tier.
