Just asking a question. The UNLV - UC men's basketball game was advertised to be on Fox Sports Cincinnati and here in SE Indiana, we ended up with a Columbus Blue Jackets hockey game. Did that happen to those of you in Cincinnati or was this a blackout situation for home games on Fox Sports? A couple of weeks ago I seen this also happen with another UC game and also with a Xavier game. This is ticking me off with Fox Sports Cincinnati channel this year. Never had it happen before let alone twice.

who's your provider? there's an overflow channel in the nether regions, either FSO or STO. you'd find it there

Looking at the FS Ohio channel finder it oddly looks like most SE Indiana locations don't receive alternate channels.

I always advise getting the Fox Sports Go app or using Fox Sports Go in your web browser.

Yes, this is a must. The ESPN app is also a must because in the event the previous game runs over you can always get the full game on the app.

There are two different FS Ohio channels as weird as that sounds...much like there is a a National ABC/CBS/Fox/NBC and a local one. If you watch the National channels no local specific programming is ever on, which includes local sports distributions (which was a real problem when the local NBC affiliate wasn't being carried for me on Hulu with Live TV and I got to watch terrible talk shows instead of Sunday Night Football for a few months).

My Fox Sports feed on YouTubeTV was messed up also for the UNLV game. There was some really stupid looking fantasy FB show on - from Fox.

They were about 10 minutes into the game before it got switched.

I still don't know if YouTubeTV that was picking up the wrong feed, or if Fox was feeding them the wrong show. I was not happy, and I let YouTubeTV know about it. I almost felt sorry for the poor customer service rep trying to help me. (almost)

Up by Napoleon, Ohio, we watched on the Fox Sports Ohio Alternate channel.

Wait, you're in Napoleon now? Hey, in 10 more years you might get to the middle of Ann Arbor and Napoleon and we can catch a game with Senior

I had this issue in KY, and was not shown on the alternate channels either. Watched on Fox sports Go

I'm guessing he has Comcast if it is cable in SE Indiana. I'm also in SE Indiana, but I stream FuboTV. There are two Fox Sports Cincinnati channels on FuboTV and they always have the same listing for both, but often have different programming. So it might say Blue Jackets game for both channels, but one is carrying the UC game.

Same thing happens with Reds games. It will say National Rodeo finals or something for both, but one of them has the Reds game.

My in-laws are in Napoleon. And we are selling the place in Ann Arbor.

Just going to be stuck in Minster, now.
