WCC ESPN Schedule

Saw this on the USF board... looks like the WCC has 17 total games on the ESPN networks... not too shabby! The Gonzaga @ UP game will be on ESPN2 and the UP @ LMU game will be on ESPNU. I think that's a few less games for UP than last year, but I can understand that with SMC and USD being so strong.

Hopefully Comcast Sports Net will pick up a few more games... they aired a few last year...

I am sure that UP @ GU will be on FSN, as well.

All the away conference games will be on t.v.

Glad to see the Home game against Gonzaga on ESPN. At least it won't be a blow out if Portland plays the way it should.
Once again watching on the Stretch-net Computer TV, Hopefully Bill Gates worked on it and has the fuzzy- ness ironed out.
If anybody knows of a Satellite Network in the Southwest that gets many games please E-mail or post me. (Comcast in So. California doesnt get many of Portland Games)

Mesa-

I *think* that if you order the total Comcat Sports Package you can get all the regional networks of Comcase, Comcast Northwest included. But I'm not sure on that.

Usually the games @ USF get picked up by Comcast Bay Area and the game @ San Diego gets picked up by the local channel USD has a deal with. (I want to say Ch. 4 for some reason). The other GU game will definitely be on FoxSportsNorthwest, which you should be able to pick up with a sports package.

Hopefully the SMC and SCU games will get picked up too, maybe by Comcast Bay Area.

We'll have to wait and see, but considering we got something like 7 or 8 WCC games on TV last year I hope we can get a similar number or even more this year.
