Traditional college football is being destroyed by the power of TV, as every college in the country whores itself out to make the TV gods happy and get precious TV exposure. . .and then the TV guys start fighting among themselves, which results in college football not appearing on TV.

Now that, my friends, is irony.

Can you pay for it from DISH or is it just not available at all?

I guess I will be watching at my parents house. I would prefer to be in private where no one can hear me scream.

Damn I was planning on being at my parents country place as well. I believe they have dish. I am going to have to completely change my plans. This sucks.

They are just trying to save you all the agony and frustration of watching this blood bath.
BTW- I think they are even showing it here on one of the ESPN channels. :P

Glad I have digital cable, not being able to watch the season opener would be a total suck...even if we are on the wrong end of a lopsided scoreboard.

Is Dish Network the same as Direct TV?

the only way to keep this kind of thing from continuing is to cancel dish if you have it. They should have to feel some pain on this.
