So the North Texas - Southern Miss game is going to be on Fox College Sports. This is the same channel that the North Texas - Tulane game was on. I'm looking for a place in Collin County to host a watching party for the Southern Miss game, but want to make sure that the establishment actually gets that channel.

As some of us ran into for the Tulane game, DirecTV puts restrictions in place that prevent larger establishments from getting Fox College Sports. It's tricky to test without having them call DirecTV because the channel isn't always airing content. Did anyone happen to catch the Tulane game at a bar or restaurant in Collin County? If so, could you let me know where? I'm looking for ideas. Little help?

Thanks.

I know there are Fuzzy's out here in Weatherford and one in Denton. If you have a Fuzzy's in your area they have just about any cable sports station you want. They did out here for the North Texas/Tulane game and put our game on 3 screens.

GMG!

There is a Fuzzy's in Plano on US 75. Maybe I'll look into that. Thanks!

I had the same thought, but I've got Time Warner Cable. My cable just isn't long enough.

(Insert "that's what she said" joke here.)

That makes DTV nice we carry one to the ranch during hunting and many carry them to tailgates

Fuzzy's RULES! Stinks that the closest one to myself is up in FoCo (Ft. Collins). But, I'd drive 75 miles to go to a Fuzzy's, than 5 miles to a Hooter's.

I went by the Fuzzy's in Plano. The have Dish Network. I googled around and found multiple references to Dish Network not carrying FCS. Fuzzy's didn't get any of the channels I found as possibly carrying FCS.

I guess I'll keep looking. Shouldn't be this difficult.

In all serious... Isn't there a BWW, 3rd base, twin peaks, those two bars in the shops, the franchise, or Allen has kristys

Hmm after re-reading I think you may have just been giving us the overall channels, not necessarily if UNT is televised on them for any given game in any given region, is that right? Ugh if so, back to square one on SMiss, though at least I know what channels to have them check...

My post above on the Fox College Sports channels was regarding the Southern Miss game. It will be on FCS Central. The tricky thing is that these are not part of standard packages. The establishment has to be paying for the sports package that includes FCS. Also, for whatever crazy reason, DirecTV won't sell the package to places that seat > 100 people.

      🙄 like I have stated before DC under a lame duck coach is not a highly desired job for coaches with options.

      That is very subjective. Boise State or UNLV probably will get the G5 spot in the playoff over a one loss Army team. Louisville, SMU, Houston, Rutgers and Cincinnati left conference for greener pastures. So I don’t know who anointed the AAC as 5th, but the playoff committee isn’t listening to them. Army, a team brand new to the conference that came into the conference and dominated. They were independent juggernauts last year at 6-6 🙄. AAC is viewed as better than the MAC, CUSA and Sun Belt. But we certainly won’t be viewed as better than the reconstructed PAC 12 and right now it doesn’t look like we are viewed better than the current MWC.

      Don't if y'all know this or not.....but the last two years we've had Texas high school football games played in Louisiana. Both years the games have been at Turpin Stadium in Natchitoches. As a matter of fact, this year they hosted two games on the same day. (Daingerfield versus Newton, and Texarkana versus Port Neches Grove). Both games were last Friday.

      The exact same thing was probably thought by other fan bases about Eric, Seth, Dan, and any other head coach we’ve hired here.
