That's for TV right. Who are you using for Internet? The ISP's are the ones that have to deals with ESPN to show ESPN3 not the TV providers.

If your ISP is listed here then you have espn3

Thanks sir. I have comcast internet so i guess i get espn3. Funny, i didnt get it last year. I guess they picked it up for this year.

my only problem with ESPN3 is the Bama games are always blacked out where I live....in Florida, no less. Go figure.
If they are blacked out in Florida it is likely a broadcast station in your area is playing the game. For example the 11:21am Central time SEC network games are usually available on ESPN GamePlan and ESPN3, but only for areas where there isn't a station that carries the SEC network games. For me in Atlanta, I believe WPCH carries the games, so it would be blacked out for GamePlan and ESPN3. If it were just a PPV game only available in Alabama, it should only be blacked out in Alabama.

Dish Network is $5 cheaper at $34.95. I'm a suck and paid it but, it sucks to pay that much for the poor quality that CTSN produces. You would think that the athletic department could throw some money at the CTSN for some upgrades. HD would be nice but, at least get the SD up to todays standards.

I thought I remembered from some months back that the PPV was going to go HD, but I'm not sure.

I was referring to the PPV games being blacked out on ESPN3. I get all the other games on U-verse

If/when someone finds out what channel the game will be on with Directv, please post it. Sometimes I have a hard time finding it.

I just ordered it and it will be on channel 461 in my area. I have Dish; and I live in the extreme south part of Alabama. I tried to find it on DISH.com, but it doesn't show up, not even with a search. I complained about that and they waived the $5 extra charge for ordering over the phone. Still 34.95 though...

This is probably an easy ?, but I've got three TVs (two receivers) that will have the game on..... will it be accessable through all TVs or do I have to pay an added fee?

I also have Dish Network....

WOW! That's crazy! WWE Pay-Per-Views cost about the same and that's outrageous to me. I have Comcast but I haven't looked up the price for the game yet. I'm guessing it will be around $35. I'm not even sure if I am going to order it anymore; there are a lot better games on TV that are free.

Also for the Uverse subscribers here...start checking around Tuesday to see if the game is listed. Look at channels PPV 100-107 or ESPN GamePlan 4401-4406.

As soon as I see it I will post in this thread.
Finally, this a.m. I found it. However, I was told to go to 102 for PPV & I finally saw other games listed for Sat. but not AL so then I went to 100 & saw it listed on 101 & I ordered it. Whew! I was getting worried.....
