Berg Announces NDSU Bison Quarterfinal Game to be Broadcast on ESPN Gameplan

Fargo, N.D. – Congressman Rick Berg today announced that the NSDU Bison NCAA Football Championship Subdivision Quarterfinals against Lehigh will be broadcast Saturday on the ESPN Game Plan package, in addition to ESPN3.com.

“This is exciting news for NDSU fans everywhere. All the credit goes to the NDSU Alumni Association for their call to action and for Bison fans working hard to show their support for NDSU,” Berg stated. “On behalf of Bison fans everywhere, I am happy to announce that ESPN heard our request, allowing Bison fans across our state and the nation to come together and cheer on NDSU. Thanks to ESPN for being responsive to our request—now it’s time to ‘be herd’ in the Fargodome this Saturday! Go Bison!”

The game will take place at the Fargodome on Saturday, December 10 at 3:00PM CST.

Earlier this week the NDSU Alumni Association sent an email calling for NDSU fans to urge ESPN to broadcast the Quarterfinal game on its Game Plan package, in addition to the Internet webcast on ESPN3.com. ESPN notified Berg this afternoon of its intentions to broadcast the game on the Game Plan package.

Berg, a proud Bison fan, graduated from NDSU with a degree in ag economics.

Nice job by Kent Conrad and Berg.

[Da_Bizon]

It's not ideal, but it's better than nothing. Good job to everyone who harassed ESPN, as well as Berg and Conrad.

[WYOBISONMAN]

This is fabulous news!

Make sure to drop State Senator Tim Flakoll an email. He really got the ball rolling on this. tflakoll@nd.gov. Tell him thanks, as well as the
7000 to 10,000 good people of this state that called ESPN according to my contact at Cable One.

[Bison03]

Nice job by Kent Conrad and Berg.

Now that's some bipartisan cooperation I can agree with.

Looks like we can wield some political clout too. I like some of the folks who made fun of those of us who pushed this from the bisonville end...:rofl:

[BISONBRI53]

GOOD WORK BISON FANS!!! So is it still gonna be on ESPN3? :hide: JUST KIDDING!!!!!

[CaBisonFan]

Now that's some bipartisan cooperation I can agree with.

I totally agree. If we could only get that on issues that are more pressing.

[Bison"FANatic"]

Good job to Bison and Lehigh fans as they were also calling and complaining to ESPN, maybe even more than us being so many of them were not making the trip out.

[HerdBot]

Awesome news. The 40 emails I sent off werent a waste!!! :) Fine work everybody!

[CaBisonFan]

Can someone tell me if this game is going to be on tv anywhere?

It's a legit. question. Does anyone know which espn channel we'll be on? I don't expect it to show up the menu (schedule) by tomorrow.

[funteddy]

I will have it at Chubs...................Good work to all who banged on ESPN's Door

[bri-dog]

DirecTv channel 792.

And we have the channel to ourselves (no game before us), so we shouldn't have to miss the beginning this time...

[JustinTyem]

And I remember when Gabe and I got bitched at for all the ESPN Threads We made. Maybe we can get some respect now??? I earned it,atleast Im happy with my own honor and respect!!! http://www.bisonville.com/forum/showthread.php?25753-1-888-549-ESPN-Call-THEM-NOW!!!!! http://www.bisonville.com/forum/showthread.php?25750-Contact-ESPN

Good Job to Conrad and Breg for making calls to ESPN and getting this game on.

[funteddy]

501-505 on Cableone gameplan (pay for package)

[NDSUFan_Sav]

Awesome news. The 40 emails I sent off werent a waste!!! :) Fine work everybody!

they didn't read any of your emails

[Youcankisswhatsunderthere]

$25 on direct tv channel 792

[CaBisonFan]

$25 on direct tv channel 792

Does this show the full game, or does it switch back and forth between games?

[BisonTeacher]

You know...sometimes being put on ESPN in prime time isnt everything you think it will be. Just ask UNI. (winning, good for recruiting)

[KC Bison]

I checked last night and Dish wasn't listing the game but its there this morning. Its on ch 464. BTW, Senator Conrad could have put out a statement but apparently didn't think it was worth the time.

[Youcankisswhatsunderthere]

Does this show the full game, or does it switch back and forth between games?

This is for just the full NDSU game.

[KC Bison]

Dish has each game on a separate channel although they may show other games during half time but there should be no interuptions during the game.

[Hammerhead]

Didn't espn say the gameplan season ended last week just a couple of days ago? Next year we'll have to work on getting the games in HD.
