Contact ESPN to air game on ESPNU

[KnightinPeace]

Saw this hinted at in another thread but if enough people contact ESPN we may have a chance to get UCF Akron in to more households via ESPNU since the La. Tech-Texas A&M game is postponed due to Hurricane Isaac

Submit a quick e-mail suggesting it here

There have been movements by UCF fans. So hopefully this game is able to separate itself from the other ESPN3 options. Couldn't hurt.

Thanks KiP

As a former resident of NE Ohio, I have seen the results of the desires of the masses in NE Ohio. Petitions and public outcry gave America the Cleveland Browns. I'll pass on this one. Thanks though and enjoy ZNO. I'll be watching on my iPAD.

Apparently a guy with influence is:

ESPN's Mike Humes ‏

His twitter is:

@MikeHumesESPN

"With Texas A&M-La Tech postponed, ESPNU will now simulcast Goal Line, capturing action from many games"

So even though the whole game won't be on; it might help to tweet at him so the game gets the most exposure on ESPNU...

FWIW, our Rivals guy is in Akron & is VERY impressed the stadium, campus & community etc. Evidently Terry & co has the facilities to get something going.

Maybe the team is better off not having been televised being shellacked at home by another mid-major. If only the same were true of oh, say Clint Eastwood.

I watched ESPNU from late first Qtr to end of SCar-VBilt game, and I didn't see a single play from INfocision. On the other hand the game @Dicks got both replays and live play (but, darn, I missed that wrong-way run!). What I don't understand is -- if you're not going to show another game in the entirety, why devote about half the time (maybe more like 2/3) to showing the same game at the same time on two different channels??
