ESPN has BIG 10 game scheduled before the Cats!

[FlCATFan]

ESPN will be showing Mich. vs Ohio State at 7:00. So if this runs true to form the game will run long and the Cats won't be shown until about 9:30.

Thanks for the heads up...

Ohio State actually plays a somewhat quick pace by the standards of everybody outside of the B1G, so we may be in luck.

Count on it being late.

Well based on our last two games missing the first 4-5 minutes could either mean you miss the best part of the game for UK (Ole Miss and 15-2 lead) or the worst, falling down 9-0 to A&M.

Either way, OP is right in that we will miss it. They will delay the tip to 10 after no doubt to try to help.

Why worry? They'll just move it to ESPN News probably until the other game is over.

 

[GLR5555]

ESPN ballgames, doctors appointments and airlines suck at sticking to scheduled times.

 

[KyFaninNC]

If that game doesn't go into overtime.

Sometime they start in on ESPN3 or the WatchESPN app.....which I nor alot of people have due to DirecTV. But it is what it is.

And that is what will happen tonight because there is a game on ESPNEWS from 6-8pm CT.

Not really a big issue any longer with ESPNN and all the Alternate ESPN channels. I use to hate playing behind the BIG 10, but not any longer.

 

[WACB]

I'll be steaming tonight, so worst case scenario, I'll be re-streaming the ESPN3 steam if they don't move it to one of the other channels, until the first game is over.

I hate following a Big10 game.

Those games always run LONG !

Re: I hate following a Big10 game.

eh, it's a minor annoyance. Worst case the first 10min will be on ESPNNews or 2, or the U, but they won't let their prime time game go unseen.

Re: I hate following a Big10 game.

yes Big 10 games NEVER get done on time!!

We better hope OU at WVU does not run long on News because the other two are NOT options tonight.

On Tuesdays they always have a B1G game at 7pm followed by an SEC game at 9pm.
Been that way about 20 years or so.

If you look up the history, the Big10 probably has all their overtime games occurring on Super Tuesday.

At least we don't have to deal with Gottlieb prior.

 

[UK1919]

You will love Saturdays game, too. Again we follow ohio. This time on CBS. Them @ 2p, us @4p ... or 4:15p, ... or 4:30p ... or ............................................................... ?

It really pisses me off that the rest of the world doesn't understand the importance of UK basketball like I do.

Oh really? Because NEXT Tuesday the SEC game is first, on February 10th, SEC game is first, and LAST week UGA played Arkansas first while we played SEC Network at 7pm eastern. So what you say is not true every Tuesday.

It's true when Kentucky plays. We are rarely the 7pm game.

5/9 weeknight games are at 7pm. That seems fair and even to me. You may be right based on previous seasons though.

Try 11:30 - they should have about 11 overtimes.

 

[BigBlueFanGA]

So far it seems on time with little risk of an overtime. For once.

 

[zannmann]

Holy crap, watching the half time show of the game before ours. They are at Rupp doing it but all I hear is "blah blah Duke, Duke, Coach K, blah blah, Duke Duke Duke Coach K. WTF, our game is next and they are in our gym.

 

[zannmann]

Don't have to worry about OT tonight. Michigan is horrific.

 

[WildMoon]

are we going to wait till the game for ohio state and michigan ends?

i hope not. I see there's 14:43 minutes left...

 

[sound defect]

Looks like it ended right on time.
