Fox Affiliates for Saturday

[cloneteach]

Anyone know if we will see any of the fox affiliates like KFXA in CR announce they will carry the game on Saturday? They have in the past. Looks like MLB right now...

In the Des Moines area 17.2 will show the game. I have Directv and it looks like 671 will air the game.

The main FOX channel picks up these games? Unlikely. It's usually Comcast sports channel or one of the regional networks.

Comcast hasn't aired any FSN game since they bought NBC Universal.

I believe the weekly clearance will come out tomorrow

Can we get a confirmation on that? I'm a bit skeptical, I haven't seen it done like that in several years...

It's listed that way on the KDSM website, but I too am skeptical.

Do you think it would it be HD?

If anybody can find out more info on the 17.2 thing, I would be grateful.

Last year KFXA in Cedar Rapids did carry one of our FSN games since eastern Iowa doesn't carry FSN (eastern Iowa has Comcast Sports Net which doesn't simulcast FSN games anymore).

This is excellent news, for those of us that have cut cable. It also looks to be true because they just ran a commercial advertising it during the 9 pm news. What is the main channel this is airing on, FSN?

Edit, yes it is on FSN as is next week at Texas Tech. Will be awesome if I can watch that next week on 17.2. Keith Murphy also confirmed it during the ISU news segment.

I knew the 17.2 thing from a commercial I saw. I think it was during Tech and TCU. Great idea if a local station can pull something like that off.

That website is terrible I still can't even find the 17.2 schedule. Oh well, Keith Murphy is good enough for me. I will be at the game this weekend but will be interested for next week.

 

[khardbored]

For some reason I can use the KDSM schedule on my work computer but not at home.

Game is still showing on KDSM (Des Moines area) Fox 17 web site for 17.2 as of now. I emailed them Monday to verify but no reply yet.

Dish Game Finder has the game listed on 412-35 in HD. Channel 412 is the alternate sports channel that has sub-channels under it.
