I live in the Washington, DC suburbs (Alexandria, VA), and I have Comcast digital cable TV.
Local cable NEVER carries the Sooners unless they are on nationally. Week in and week out I am treated to such classic match ups as UVa and Wake Forest, and MD vs. Delaware.
When I tried to call Comcast at kickoff to buy the pay-per-view, the call actually went to some staff member's personal voicemail box and was never returned, much less the pay-per-view turned on to watch the game.
Therefore, I was a frustrated fan last year.
This year, I would like for things to work more smoothly.
What premium packages do any of you recommend? Remember, i am not living anywhere near Oklahoma or Big XII country where OU's regional games are picked up routinely. (In fact,the only non-national game I got to watch was Colorado, which totally sucked balls anyway.)
I understand that I could buy ESPN Gameplan, but isn't the Big XII contract with other networks? ABC and FOX Sports?
Can someone -- preferably someone in the mid-Atlantic region (college football's god-forsaken wasteland) -- help me out here?
