SMU SID - SMU/UTEP - Time Warner ?

Post by Special_Delivery_Smu_Fans »

Why is it that several TV listing sites are not showing the SMU/UTEP game on their schedule for tomorrow under Time Warner Sports Channel 185 at 7PM? If a Texas game was on Time Warner does anyone think it would not be showing on the day before the game TV listing schedule? It may not seem like a big issue, but people scan the upcoming listings to see what they may do Sat night. So anyone browsing the listings, they are not seeing the SMU/UTEP game. I am trying to put together a small watching get-together and even though I assume it will be on Time Warner Channel 185 as the SMU website shows, it is a bit scary to invite people over when nothing is showing on the TV listing guides for an SMU game at 7PM sat night on Time Warner. Am I missing something here?

We really need to start The Mustang Network so we don't have confusion like this.

SMU 86 here is the link to Time Warner Dallas schedule:

You may have to put in your Zip Code and change to "tomorrow".

This is what it is showing when I look up schedule:

Dallas Time Warner 7PM Sat Channel 181 = Rice @ Memphis
Dallas Time Warner 7PM Sat Channel 185 = Soccer

Ok here is the latest for those of you attempting to watch the SMU/UTEP game at home on Time Warner.

First I tried an "on-line" chat with a Time Warner rep which resulted in no answer and only a link to the same programming site that is not showing the game on any Time Warner Dallas channel.

So next I called Time Warner to try and verify if the SMU/UTEP game would be on Time Warner and/or Time Warner Channel 185 "The Texas Channel". After being on hold for 30 minutes and finally getting a person they said they had to transfer me to some other department.

Finally I got someone on the phone that was suppposed to know about "programming" and she said all she could do was verify that channel 185 was the "Texas Channel" in Dallas and she could not verify if SMU/UTEP was going to be shown. So I said "there is no one at Time Warner that can verify programming on Time Warner"? And she said not on the weekend, sorry.

So since the SMU SID has not responded to this post, and Time Warner customer service can't even say what will be on Time Warner, we are basically out of luck and can only "hope" the game will be on at 7PM tonight on Time Warner as the SMU website claims it will be.

Thanks for all your effort, you would think the D.M.N. would list it. :roll:

Ok I just called my brother who has the Time Warner at his house and he went through the "Guide" on the TV again and scrolled to 7PM on channel 185 and it is now showing SMU vs UTEP. So I think we are in business. What a relief!
