MUBB and Cable Question
« on: June 27, 2011, 12:51:21 PM »
Moving to IL. Do they get any of the games down there or is Full Court the way to go? Haven't picked out a cable company either if one is better than the others. Thanks for any help

You should probably make sure that whomever you chose is an ESPN 3 service provider.

IIRC, all but two conference games were available on ESPN3... if your download speed is at least 6MB/s, you can watch these games in full screen, HD quality.  MU games typically are not broadcast locally, so if hooking up your PC to your TV isn't an option, then you'll need a box/dish & some sort of package.

Full Court will get you just about every game (including many non-con) except those on national TV (CBS, ABC, ESPN/2/U, etc.).

A "Sports-Tier" package that includes SNY and MASN gets you many Big East games including Marquette.  My cousin had this package on DirecTV two years ago and caught all but three or four conference games on TV.  Last year, I think you would have missed five or six conference games live (some are shown on tape delay).

Occasionally, you'll catch an MU game on WCIU's sub-stations (26.2 or 26.3 OTA) when they're playing DePaul or playing the Saturday morning Big East Game of the Week... mind you, it won't be in HD quality.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.
