It is scheduled at 1:00pm (Eastern I believe. 12:00 central) on CSS. They are a divison of NBC Sports but seem to be tied in with Comcast. I am Uverse and it does not appear that I will get it here, but check and see if you get CSS if you have Comcast or another carrier.

You can buy the game from Tulane All Access.

It would seem to me that SMU would/could/should post accurate information about how to watch the games....these vague suggestions are very confusing....I am a uverse subscriber in university park....there are thousands of up residents that have uverse and are SMU fans....but never/nowhere so far as I can tell does SMU actually say turn on channel x at such a time if you have uverse,channell y if comcast,etc....surely SMU has that ability right here on the campus and the surrounding area...it was a nightmare last week and SMU says the game was televised...it was,i guess, if you dont live in hp,university park or wherever tw is available....first and 10 was overcrowdwd in the small area where the smu game was on as we had no interesst in paying for dinner to watch texas,although the food would have been good..

It would be very helpful for SMU Sports information to provide that, and we would (of course) be happy to display that info prominently on PonyFans.

I missed the first minute or two of the UTEP game because I was in a mad scramble to get everything ready for the watching party and I couldn't find the game on Time Warner Texas.

And on the subject, wasn't that the most bush-league broadcast you've seen in recent years? You'd think if Time Warner were branding that channel, they'd at least broadcast it in HD. They would have been much better served just to stream the audio from the SMU Radio Network rather than use whatever two derelicts they rounded up to call that game. My cats are more knowledgeable about our student-athletes that those two were.

I was under the assumption that you basically had to have Time Warner to get CSS, everyone with Direct TV and U-verse is screwed..

Barley House did a great job of creating a pro SMU environment. Even though the A&M and TX games were on at the same time, as well as Georgia, SMU got one of the two main big screens and a bar tv, both were syncing through the computer to All Access

on top of that, there were a ton of SMU fans watching there as well. Between 1st and 10 and Barley House now, I say we have a couple of fun places to gather together and watch the games, I, for one, will be at Barley again for the game this Saturday

As stated above (and on our website), the game will be on CSS. Unfortunately, CSS is not available in Dallas (nor New Orleans for that matter). It IS available in Houston. Beacuse of this, CUSA is allowing us to stream the game through SMUMustangs.com.

As far as I can tell (and I looked as thoroughly as I could), CSS is not on Time Warner either.

So despite what the press release earlier this year stated, all our games aren't really on TV this year.

Bummer.

As usual, very incomplete or sketchy information from SMU regarding information on their sports teams. Almost like they want to keep it a secret.

Great marketing and access again by SMU. You can get home games on local TV but can not get road games on local TV.

The rights are controlled by CUSA. If CSS picks the game, CSS gets the game. We don't make that choice.

However, because of our concerns, CUSA is allowing us to stream the game through SMUMustangs.

Hope this helps.
