Is Saturday's Game Televised?

[FanHam]

I'm pretty sure it's at the Mohegan Sun and it's at 2:15 PM, but I can't find it in my television listings.

Is it going to be televised? If so, by who? Does anyone know?

Espn3 only

Aarrrgggghhhhh! I live in Connecticut and ESPN3 has been blacked out every time I've tried to use it for a UConn home game. Maybe I'll get lucky since, technically, this isn't a home game.

It won't be blacked out, sny games are blacked out in their home territory because they want you to watch on tv. This is an ESPN game and there is no TV option, unless you get espn3 as a channel. But if you live in CT and are worried about seeing it just go to the game

My channel guide is showing the game on ESPNU. Good viewing!

Unfortunately, even though I live in Connecticut and would LOVE to attend a game, I'm disabled by severe COPD and haven't the stamina for such a venture. Also, supplemental oxygen tanks (or a portable oxygen concentrator) take up a lot of space and would not be welcome in a crowded grandstand.

No thanks for the lack of thought though.

Welcome aboard! Thanks for posting.

Wishful thinking? Wistfully, I'd go with the B1G, but on the matter at hand, the ACC is listed on the U. It's ESPN3 for the "2017 Frontier Communications American Athletic Conference Women's Basketball Championship (Quarterfinal #2) (The American Women's Championship)" Saturday
3/04 at 2:00 PM EST.

Sorry to disappoint, but on my channel guide, it says ACC, and NOT AAC tournament at that time. I too am without a way to see the UConn game on Sat....

 

[FanHam]

Yeah, no deal with ESPNU - they're showing the ACC tournament. Nerts! I'll have to trust that it won't be blacked out.

My cable provider here in Ohio does not carry ESPN3. However, a while ago I found out that Sling TV, a tv streaming company, does. Sling TV also gives out free trials, which I think are good for a week. So, I got one of those and it enabled me to watch some UCONN games. Now, for other reasons (they also have the PAC-12 Network), I have an actual subscription to Sling.

But check it out. It's a way to get the games if you can't get ESPN3 in another way.

ESPN3 is not a cable channel. It is live streaming of games and replays via the internet. If you have internet and cable package that includes ESPN you can get ESPN 3.

Is ESPN3 an actual cable channel or just an Internet channel? WatchESPN on your phone, computer, or smart TV should have it if you have some ESPN channels as part of your TV package.

Coco, unless things have changed, I don't believe this is correct. A few years ago when I was still in Wisconsin, the small company which we had for both cable television and internet carried ESPN and their related channels on cable, but hadn't signed up to carry ESPN3 on the internet side which would have required them to pay additional fees. It isn't (or wasn't) an automatic given. It was really frustrating because our cable/ISP provider had a monopoly in our town for the cable side of things.

You better recheck you guide. My guide is showing the second ACC semifinal ,not the AAC games.

 

[OldAlum]

If you have Watch ESPN (ESPN3) the game should be available to you since there is no TV feed to protect.

There is an AAC Tournament quarter final #4 on FSSEHD at 8:30 Saturday CST. It does not yet name the teams but I believe it is the Uconn game. The championship game is on ESPN2 at 8:00 pm CST on Monday. The first semi-final is Sunday at 4:00 pm CST on ESPN2 and the second semi-final is on ESPNU at 6:30 pm CST Sunday.

Exactly. My cable provider (MCTV) won't pay the fees, so I have no access to ESPN3 through them. What I have not understood from the get-go is why ESPN doesn't just allow individuals to subscribe to ESPN3. But they don't.

It's a shame my computer screen capture is so stuttery. On playback it's nearly unwatchable. But I'll record it nonetheless.

If worse comes to worse, College Sports Live has a live audio broadcast of the game. Their broadcast starts however at 1:30 pm. I've a feeling the starting time for the game may be 2:30 pm.
