BTN Regional Games

[Great Plains Gopher]

Somebody mentioned that BTN no longer has all those overflow channels. Does that mean if you live in another region, you might not be able to get a Gopher game? Or would there be some way to get it from your cable provider?

This is the only game that won't be covered. For tonight I have DirectTV and will pick it up on ALTa682. here in Ely.

I gave bad info in another thread. BTN just has two overflow channels. Today they broadcast four games so the Purdue game was not shown in Minneapolis on Comcast. So if BTN2Go can stream the game, for more money BTN probably could've aired tonight's game and just bumped a game from one of the overflows in Minnesota. Doubt it would be worth it to the BTN's bottom line but would've been great PR

Not to start a whole "thing" but just to state facts, DirecTV had four BTN games going on that the same time (3 overflow channels).
