2012 ESPN3 email petition! Get this sucker televised!

WDAY should show the game locally...Follow me here:

Disney owns ESPN which airs games on ABC where WDAY is an affiliate. Let's get this done!

Summary
Rounds 1 and 2: only on ESPN3 (unless some get added to Gameplan)
Quarterfinal round: 2 of the 4 games on either ESPN or ESPN2, other 2 on ESPN3 (maybe the other 2 will get added to Gameplan if enough people complain)
Semifinal round: both games on either ESPN2 or ESPNU
Finals: ESPN2

How do I get ESPN Gameplan?

Call your Satellite or cable provider. Last year it was one payment in the $25 range for the day.

Is it still on espn3?

Yes, it will be on both.

I thought the same thing, but I'm guessing the existing contract with KVLY would put a damper on those plans.

Great find!

I hope we get the ESPN game on December 8!

I don't think the contract would apply here, as WDAY would be negotiating with ESPN, not NDSU.

Thanks, but I was kidding...I assume you didn't pick up on the purple font.

I hope we get the ESPN game on November 8!

ESPN will be televising 2 quarterfinal games and both semifinals in addition to the championship game on their (over air) networks the same as last year (page 10 here):

ROUND DATE TIME BROADCAST
First-Round Games (4) November 24 TBD ESPN3
Second-Round Games (8) December 1 TBD ESPN3
Quarterfinal-Round Game December 7 8 p.m. (EST) ESPN2
Quarterfinal-Round Game December 8 Noon (EST) ESPN
Quarterfinal-Round Games (2) December 8 TBD ESPN3
Semifinal-Round Game December 14 8 p.m. (EST) ESPN2
Semifinal-Round Game December 15 4 p.m. (EST) ESPNU

It does say tentative but at least the are still televising some games. I think there's a good chance that they could choose NDSU as the Friday night games in the case that the Bison make it that far. I'd imagine that Montana St would be an appealing option for them as well.
