Thanks Matt, added ND.
Is it me or is this too much coverage even for a diehard fan?
Probably. But it’s convenient for fans who can’t or don’t want to go to the game.
that said….I’ll be watching the UGa game….and where is the coverage for SJSU’s game,espn???
SJSU as in San Jose State?
yes….SJSU is my team….ranked 120th last year at 1- 12 and another nasty schedule this year as well
A few corrections need to be made. The Georgia game, while it will be on ESPN3.com, is a CSS game, not an ESPN game. CSS will broadcast 5 spring football games, not just the 1 you have listed. The CSS schedule, as found at their site (http://www.csssports.com/pages/schedules) is this:
Saturday, April 9
4 PM- Clemson
6 PM- Mississippi State
Saturday, April 16
1 PM- Georgia
3 PM- Auburn
5 PM- Ole Miss (tape delayed)
Okay, further research shows the Clemson game is posted as being on ESPN and CSS, but since ESPN sent out a press release confirming they are showing the LSU game, then Clemson could just be a taped game on ESPN or it could be on ESPN2 or ESPNU.
A big correction to be made though is the Virginia game is not on ESPN. It is an ESPN3.com exclusive.
Corrections made to the schedule. Apparently, the initial schedule that ESPN posted was full of errors. Thanks for the assistance!
Michigan Spring Game is Saturday, April 16 at noon ET on the Big Ten Network
Added, thanks.
All CSS games will be available on espn3.com. Here’s a new game not listed. Florida’s Spring Game (Saturday, April 9 at 11 AM) will be available on SUN sports (http://www.gatorsports.com/article/20110308/ARTICLES/110309542).
The name CBS College Sports is no longer applicable. CBS College Sports changed their name to the CBS Sports Network as of April 1 (http://www.dailygazette.com/weblogs/schott/2011/feb/15/cbs-college-sports-becomes-cbs-sports-network/).
Thanks. The only CSS game not listed on ESPN3’s site is Georgia.
The SEC web site confirms the Georgia game will be on ESPN3.com (http://www.secdigitalnetwork.com/NEWS/tabid/473/Article/223883/2011-sec-spring-football-game-schedules.aspx). Additionally, the Tennessee game will be shown live on FoxSportsTennessee.com and shown tape delayed on Fox Sports South.
The Florida game will be streamed live at FoxSportsFlorida.com for viewers who don’t have access to Sun Sports.
Great, thanks.
