mjmartin1970 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Ok, this is the second game that is on FSN pay-per-view that I cannot order on comcast in Denver; however: 1 - I know that Comcast realizes there are a lot of Husker fans in Denver as we get the Coach Callahan show on Comcast's channel. 2 - I know they have the ability to offer the games as they are offering them in other states. Does anyone know if I can call/write anybody to try to get the ppv games on Comcast in Denver? Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Does this help at all?!??? Nebraska Football Pay-Per-View Information Courtesy: NU Media Relations Release: 10/11/2006 Updated Pay-Per-View Information Courtesy: Scott Bruhn/NU Media Relations Brandon Jackson and the Huskers will try to improve to 3-0 in the Big 12 this weekend. Lincoln - The Nebraska-Kansas State college football game on Saturday, Oct. 14 will be telecast via pay-per-view on participating cable systems and nationwide to satellite dish customers. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:00 PM CT from Bill Snyder Family Stadium in Manhattan. Suggested retail price for residential purchase is $29.95. Big 12 Special Order Sports, Fox Sports Net’s pay-per-view division, will produce and distribute the telecast. Additional information about how to purchase the telecast is listed below. Updates will be posted on K-Statesports.com, Huskers.com and FOXSports.com (search: Midwest) as they become available. The game is being televised on pay-per-view because it was not selected for over-the-air broadcast or cable television coverage. Under Conference TV rules, games not picked up for regular television distribution can only be televised live on pay-per-view if during a Conference TV window. Big 12 games scheduled for television on Oct. 14 are: Iowa State at Oklahoma (11:30 AM on FSN), Missouri at Texas A&M (2:30 PM on ABC) and Baylor at Texas (6:00 PM on TBS). Participating cable and satellite providers will offer the telecast to their customers on a specially designated pay-per-view channel. The telecast will not pre-empt FSN’s regularly scheduled programming. The Nebraska-Kansas State game will be the eighth Nebraska football game distributed on pay-per-view, following: Oct. 12, 2002 vs. Missouri; Oct. 25, 2003 vs. Iowa State; Sept. 4, 2004 vs. Western Illinois; Oct. 2, 2004 vs. Kansas; Sept. 3, 2005 vs. Maine; Oct. 15, 2005 at Baylor; and Sept. 23, 2006 vs. Troy. Nebraska won all seven of those games. This is the first K-State football game distributed via pay-per-view since the Wildcats 40-6 win over Kansas on Oct. 27, 2001. Dan McLaughlin (play-by-play) call the action with Richard Baldinger (analyst) and Brent Stover (reporter). To date, the following programming providers have agreed to offer the Nebraska-Kansas State pay-per-view telecast. For availability in their specific areas, customers should contact their cable or satellite provider. Additional providers and ordering information may be announced later this week.

mjmartin1970 Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 Thanks Eric, but it doesn't help. They aren't broadcasting it here. The problem is I tend to get a little drunk and obnoxious (yelling at the screen, etc) during the games. So, I have found it best to watch them at home. Do they have a Nebraska Football Anonymous club to help? Quote Link to comment
