My local ABC says Iowa @ Penn St 3:30 Does this mean @ 3:30 on ESPN I will get the Florida St game I hope. If not is it possible for me to buy the game on Gameplan?

I think you will get it on espn..... espn shows both options in the guide .. either or... so if the penn game is on your abc the fsu game will be on espn....

I live in the Twin Cities in Minnesota. Iowa-Penn State is on the local ABC affliliate (NOT in HD). When I tune to ESPN2 I'm getting the "Blacked Out-Program not available in your area" message. Is this correct?

D* is screwed up this weekend. What is supposed to happen is you get one game, normally the game of local interest, on ABC and the "reverse mirror" game on ESPN2 or one of ESPN Alternate channels(210 or 211).

I am in Indy getting Iowa/Penn State on my ABC affiliate(not in HD either) so I should get the NC State/FL State game on ESPN2 or one of the alternates. 209 is blacked out and I am getting the Iowa/Penn State on 211. So I am getting the same game on two channels.

Sorry D* is screwing this up for you guys. I have $12 basic cable as a D* backup, and I'm watching NCST vs. FLST on ESPN2 right now with Comcast.

This is getting rediculous. Very dissapointed with this. Here wehave the perfect partnership between abc and espn so we can view maximum games and they are screwing up royally. I wonder if this is their way of making us order it via gameplan for 21.95!!!!! Again rediculous.

Yeah, so the ESPN2 alternative channel has the Iowa/PSU game available that I can watch locally and the NC State/FSU game is blacked out. Their blackout was applied in reverse in my market/region/etc.

Since their blackout timer kicked in before the noon game was over, maybe due to the weather delay we'll be able to see the end of the game?
