I'm paying for ESPN so how come they're doing this?"

I don't give a rats ass about sports or NECKCAR but I think that happens when they don't sell all the seats in the arena.

either it was not sold out 24 hrs in advance and they consider it in your area, or, it is showing on one of your local channels.

Doesn't ESPN run one of those pay packages for college football games? I'd bet its on one of the channels set up for that and therefore won't be on the regular ESPN channels.

That may be but the game was listed in both the paper and the weekely TV insert. Still shouldn't be a blank screen on my ESPN channel when I pay extra to get that channel. At least show me an ESPN classic game.
