ESPN Regional/Big East Game of the Week
Sat., Nov. 22 PITTSBURGH at CINCINNATI or WEST VIRGINIA at LOUISVILLE

ESPN Regional
Sat., Sept. 6 Buffalo at Pittsburgh 6 p.m.
SportsNet New York/ESPN GamePlan

CBS College Sports is what used to be the  CSTV channel. They rebranded it during the NCAA Tournament and after CBS purchased them outright.

More games will be added, but this is what is known so far. For example the October 25 BE Game of the week is open — and just happens to be the day Rutgers-Pitt play. So that will likely get added.

Not bad for Pitt to already have 6 games on national (non-PPV/regional) distribution considering the last few years. As for the other schools: Louisville has 6 games, WVU has 5 games, USF has 5, UConn has 5, Rutgers has 4, Cinci has 4, Syracuse has 3





Very cool. I can’t wait to see Shady against Bowling Green. If everything goes well with the Offensive Line, then I don’t see why McCoy doesn’t rack up 120ish against them. Almost time to move the cooler to the basement and start dreaming of the almighty pigskin.

BG defense gave up an average of 200 yards per game so i hope Shady has 120ish!!! Rumor has it that the Pirates game on Aug 30th is now a TBA and the time might be changed so they are FOX nationally. This might cause havic on the noon start against BG????

No way that game ca start at noon now…Pirates sked shows a 3:55 FOX game since the Brew Crew will likely be fighting for a playoff spot.

I could log in to edit it but I’m lazy…

The question is…what time does Pitt play?

Comment by Dennis 07.29.08 @ 7:22 pm

Just saw an article on Scout.com that reviews all of Notre Dame’s upcoming opponents.

They review Pitt and predict us to have a record (at gametime) of 5-2, give or take a win.

Here’s the link.

How can the Buccos have a start around 4? I thought the Pirates and Pitt had to give each other something like 6 hours between start times for parking purposes. Though I personally wouldn’t mind a late start, it’d be cutting into students’ drinking time and therefore attendance.

I’d have to imagine the Iowa game has a chance to at least be a regional telacast. Looked at the schedule for that week and they’re only a handful of games that have two BCS confrence teams playing each other. Of that handful the best games are SEC games which I believe are tied into CBS leaving the other 5 confrences for ABC/ESPN. Hopefully those of us outside of the Burgh can get that one also.

I see a couple of the Hoopies hoopsters got busted at PNC park. Should be fun chanting “Pepper Spray” at them.
