Another Dayton Preview of Akron Game

Came across this Dayton website. Check out their Akron preview: The Blackburn Review

“The game will air in its entirety in the Cincinnati/Dayton and Northern Kentucky Markets. In the Cleveland, Akron, Toledo, and Columbus areas, Fox Sports Ohio will join the game, in progress, following the Cavaliers game.”

Yup, any time you are scheduled to be joined in progress you know you have hit the big time. Question: if you moved the game to 9 p.m. just so it could be on basic cable, wouldn’t it behoove you to push it to 9:30? I mean, what’s the difference? Wouldn’t it be nice to ensure that people who want to view the UD game outside of the Cincinnati/Dayton area could watch it in its entirety?

Earth to Blackburn Review: People in NEO are not tuning in to see the Flyers. The Zips? Maybe. :D And when has a college ever scheduled around a pro team 200 miles away? :rolleyes:

I'm sure there are plenty of UD alums in Cleveland, Akron, Toledo and Columbus.

Still gotta give the guy credit, that was a pretty entertaining preview.

I believe I read that the game is being aired in its entirety on the alternate FS Ohio channel. According to foxsportsohio.com, the alternate channel for Time Warner in the Cleveland area (including Akron) is 310.

Thanks for the info on TWC alternate channel. I'd given up after searching for "College Basketball." Channel 310 says a continuous "Data Not Available" on it's portion of the guide.

Nicely written preview. I even chuckled a couple times. I did laugh out loud at an exchange in the comments:

Guy one: My prediction is two Martinis and 3 Miller Lites for THIS guy!

Guy two: Martinis and Miller Lights, really? Translation: "I like nice things in my house. Please poop in my mouth." :lol: :lol: :lol:
