WTH DirecTV again?

Dish says the same, The game didnt even show up on search..

So either it will change before the game, or the game will just play hopefully, Texas A&M's schedule says they have a 2:30 ABC slot? so WTH.

Dish shows Texas A&M on channel 8. The Nebraska game shows on ESPN2, but when I tried to select it for recording, it said that the game was blocked out in my area. So, what Dish channel is it on?

 
Cox is saying the same thing here. ISU on ABC WTH! I know that can't be right you'd have a ton of angry fans here. I should call Cox to see what's going on.

I live in Omaha. My guide on DirecTV says that ISU is playing on ABC. ESPN 2 says either FSU or NEB. Is this accurate? This is my first week with DirectV and I have a stupid bday party to go to and I need to know which channel to DVR.

If you aren't getting the game on ABC then you need to DVR channel 209 (ESPN2).

This is what's going on. I don't know what guide software Cox uses, or DirecTV, but TimeWarner uses TV Guide's software, and they (TimeWarner) have no control over what it says.

I called TW about this a few games ago, because the papers were saying the game (Washington?) was on ABC, but the TV Guide thing said a different game. They assured me it was on ABC despite what the TV Guide thing said.

So 99.99% sure that anyone in the above coverage map that should be getting the Husker game will be getting it on ABC, even though it says the Iowa State game.

 
I figured as much. Very annoying and I know many people who don't know better will look at the guide thinking the game isn't on ABC despite what's been said the last couple of weeks leading up to today especially older people.

 
I take it none of you looked at the coverage map?

I live in Sioux City area and I'll get the game on ESPN 2 because I have DirecTV and in that area it'll be shown on ESPN 2. I checked the guide this morning and it said I'll get the FSU/Maryland game or Nebraska/Minnesota game. I'm not worried

 
KETV just had a marquee going saying the programming was wrong and they will be showing the game, So it is indeed mislabeled.
