I know they said the ODU at ECU game would be on Fox College Sports, but I'm not sure which channel it is. I have directv and the game is not showing up on the TV guide. I found 3 channels that say Fox college sports, but they don't have anything on them. Does anyone know what channel number the game is suppose to be on for directv.

From Wikipedia:

DirecTV (U.S.) 617, 623, 626 (live games only)

Anyone know if they have an internet feed (other than firstrowsports)? I'll be in Pittsburgh so I'll have to stream it.

might have to go through ECU for that. perhaps a small fee, too. though maybe FS1 will stream it from their website. they are supposed to have a watchespn thing but not sure if its up and running.

I don't see channel 617... But there is a 608 that is Fox College Sports but it doesn't say anything on the guide either.

Game is showing up on the TV guide for Fox College Sports Atlantic on Fios.

First of all, DIRECTV doesn't carry all of the Fox College Sports Programming.

But, it should carry the ODU @ ECU game on channel 608, 623, or 626. Those channels pick up the live events that are carried on Fox College Sports (Atlantic, Central, or Pacific). It probably won't show up in the DIRECTV program guide until the Friday before the game.

With regard to Channel 617, that is where Fox College Sports live events primarily resided before the recent launch of Fox Sports 1 & Fox Sports 2. It now appears to be 608, 623, and 626 are the Fox College Sports channels.

Side note - I believe that I read that DIRECTV doesn't pick up all of the FCS programming because it offers most of the regional Fox Sport Channels across the country in a Sports Package.

Bottom Line - don't fret yet. I have DIRECTV and I don't expect it to show up in the program guide until the day before.

I wonder if I need to upgrade my Fios package to get this channel. Hope not. Will have to check tonight if I have it.

Do you think Directv people will have to have the sports pack to get this game?

Does anyone know if it will be regional or national broadcast? Have U-verse so.... :(

I believe if you get channels like 610 (BTN) and 618 (FS2) then you should get the FCS channel when they program live games on there. Otherwise, you will probably have to whatever package gets you those channels... at least for a day...

Found it this weekend, I've got it. Shame it's not HD, but I'm just happy I'll be able to watch.

Fox is pretty mysterious. Just checked their line up for Saturday night in the Richmond area and they are still not listing anything yet. Looks like it will probably be on in the 600 channel range.

comcast/xfinity channel 720 FYI.

Did cox cable pick this game up? There was word out that they intended to.

Yea. It will be on 114. No HD. I didn't even know that no HD was still a thing.

Of course it is. Some of us choose to not bankrupt ourselves at the alter of the TV providers.

I'll be in Atlantic City. I'm sure I can find a sports bar that carries it.
