Big time!

http://www.soonersports.com/genrel/121312aac.html SoonerSN has been available on FCSC for quite sometime. I don't know if this is an expansion for what they've got now, or it's just a press announcement for something that's been available for awhile. For instance Sooner Sports Talk is on now of FCSC on Comcast.
Hopefully, they'll expand the Sooner Classic Football games (and other of the old Big 8 and Big 12 classic football and BB games) because ESPiN Classic and ESPiNU never show hardly any of the Sooner Classic games (and zero where we win). It's been a while since I watched either of these 2 ESPiN channels because their programming is so lame. In BB season they don't show anything but basketball and after basketball season they very seldom show any classic football. In fact, if it weren't for their live programming during FB and BB season, I could do w/o ESPiN altogether.

I'd love to see a replay of the OU/Kansas Natl BB championship game.

I get FCS out herein Seattle on Comcast. Just wished they would do it in HD.

If I get all of these lousy regional FS channels on U-verse anyways... might as well watch the Sooners on them! :D

Does anyone know how much revenue this is projected to make?

[LiveLaughLove]

meh. I'd rather the Big XII have a network like the B1Gs than have these individual ones personally.

I guess this is the second best thing though since UT would never relinquish the LHN thing.

Meanwhile, oklast plots to remove all poke athletics from tv so that fans are forced to buy season tickets.

Fox: we would love to broadcast you
Poke: no.
Fox: money? Recruiting? Fan service?
Poke: no
Fox: are u blaming us for bad basketball attendance? Cuz not going to the tourney in so long will also decrease attendance.
Poke: leave me alone!
Fox: is it the gooner loss? I thought u all were used to that happening by now...
Poke: :(

Did I miss some announcement, or has this been available since the beginning of the football season? I've had it on one of the FCS networks since the season started, so maybe this is just their "Grand Opening" after they've been open for awhile.

I believe it was initially announced that SoonerSports Network would be on Fox Sports in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana and there would be times when events were telecast nationally. Also, if you have Fox Sports Oklahoma, Southwest or whatever the other alternate channel was anywhere in the country you'd be able to view the content. I think this is an expansion to televise on Fox Sports Pacific, Atlantic and others all over the country so going from 9M homes to 80M homes is pretty significant in my books! Boomer Sooner!

Unfortunate. I really think Fox's production quality, announcers, etc. are subpar.

Compared to?

I can give you just as many blowhard goobers on the other networks.

Now if they could just find a way to expand this internationally, notably Europe, more notably England....

The definitions help a little.

:D

Believe me, I'm not exaggerating. They sometimes can't even understand each other over here! Not even people who have grown up in the same neighborhood and everything.

I'm going to have to run this one by a couple of my colleagues. Some of these words are a bit stronger in language than you might think. I knew 'git' and 'tod'.
