Any idea if the score will be picking up this week's SAT night game like they did last week?

You would think #1 Ohio State would draw more interest than last week's battle of 12 vs. 14 (FLA/LSU), especially with the huge potential to be upset on the road against conference rival #16 Wisconsin.

Currently on their schedule for 7-10pm is the lethal combo of vintage wrestling, poker and fighting.

I don't know if they will, but they seem pretty set on airing WWE Vintage on Saturday nights. There was no Serie A this past week, so they were able to air WWE Vintage earlier than its regular slot of 7-8, which made the 7:30-10:30 slot open for football. This week Serie A is on from 5-7, so they would have to air WWE Vintage after football if they pick up the Ohio State-Wisconsin game.

I'm not agreeing with their choice of making WWE Vintage their main Saturday night program, but for some reason they do.

So far this year The Score didn't air Oregon State-Texas Christian, South Carolina-Auburn or Penn State-Iowa, all games that are probably worth airing.

TSN2 has "NCAA Football: Teams TBA" scheduled for Saturday October 30 at 7:00pm ET. At that time Versus has a Pac-10 game, which TSN2 could pick up; however, I think it is more likely supposed to be for the 8:00pm ET game on ESPN. That night Ohio State-Minnesota or Michigan-Penn State will air on ESPN, with the other airing on ABC. Expect Michigan-Penn State to be on ESPN unless Ohio State loses again next week.

This Saturday night at 7:00 TSN2 is showing the Michigan versus Penn State football game.

Great job by TSN2. Kickoff is at 8:00pm ET, so it looks like we will get College Football Scoreboard too.

TSN2 will have a Pac-10 game on November 6 at 10:00pm ET. Look for it to be either Arizona-Stanford or Oregon-Washington (the Pac-10 makes their 12-day picks today).

Do we have any idea yet about the Canadian schedule of 2010-2011 bowl games? Now that all but three of those games will be on ESPN and its derivatives, we can not rely on US broadcast channels anymore.

I think that TSN and TSN2 has BCS. Otherwise the schedule usually isn't released until the Bowls are determined. Based on TSN's other programming, the BCS schedule should end up looking like this

Sat 1/1, 4:30pm - Rose Bowl - TSN
Sat 1/1, 8:30pm - Fiesta Bowl - TSN
Mon 1/3, 8:00pm - Orange Bowl - TSN2
Tue 1/4, 8:00pm - Sugar Bowl - TSN2
Mon 1/10, 8:00pm - BCS Championship - TSN

The Score won't have games on Monday and Friday because of WWE and TSN won't have games on some nights because of NHL and World Juniors coverage.

Can anyone explain to me why Rogers (New Brunswick) Ch 491 says that the Missouri-Nebraska game is on in HD on that channel but I can't get it? I can get the SD broadcast on a different channel but I want the HD obviously. When I go to the channel, the guide tells me it is one, but the screen is black. I have the full Sports Pack and the Rogers HD package. And this is not the first time this has happened. It seems to be every week now...

I know that in NB on Sundays, we only get 4 HD NFL games at a time, and I understand that (although I am not happy about it). But, I don't see why we can't get this one HD college game on Saturday.

I'd call Rogers, but I'd spend hours on phone trying to find someone on the other end who actually knew the answer.

Wow, what a treat it was to see "college football scoreboard" available on a Canadian TV channel.
It's extremely rare, if ever, that a Canadian sports network not only delivers on what was being clamoured for with regards to US college sports (granted after many weeks of disappointment and future disappointment in 2 weeks time), but also "overdelivers".

While CBS College Sports has a weekly 30 minute wrap up show, it's obviously half the time but also far inferior to ESPN's college football highlight/analysis shows like "college football scoreboard".
This comparison unfortunately cannot even been attempted when college basketball season starts, as CBS-CS turns their studio dark until march madness.

While ESPNU (ESPN's college sports network) being added or replacing CBS-CS on the Canadian dial could be a while off, why not show ESPN's "college football final" on a Monday/Tuesday afternoon instead of endless taped 9ball on TSN2? This would seem to be a good compliment to airing "NFL Primetime" around the same time.

Thanks Josh for Line-up

I see only 3 games listed that are available on major networks. I guess we will have to put up with those repetative TSN-Score promos.

One correction for Josh's schedule.

The Armed Forces Bowl for 30 December at 12:00 has been relocated from TSN2 to The Score. It is because TSN2 will air Spengler Cup. This is the confirmation from TSN. It is such a bummer for me since I do not get The Score HD.

Good morning,

Thanks for contacting TSN.

The Armed Forces Bowl is being shown on The Score Television Network.

Also, the Pinstripe Bowl will be joined in progress on TSN2 following the hockey at 4:30pm ET, probably around the start of the 2nd quarter.

Yes, all BCS games are exclusive to ESPN (US) and TSN (Canada). There are very few bowl games left on broadcast networks.

I kept waiting for them to show up in the super sport pac & when they didn't went looking, just switched from sat to cable finding what channel is where is not easy.

So, The Score has a commercial where they basically read off all of the bowl games that they will air. One of the games mentioned is the Chick-Fil-A Bowl, which isn't scheduled to air on The Score according to their online schedule. Every other game mentioned will air on The Score. I'm hoping this means they will have the Chick-Fil-A Bowl, but I doubt it. I contacted them about it, and I'll post what they say.

Yeah just watched the ad not sure when its played but its not on my OSG for Friday or Saturday, but lately my OSG has had a lot of errors.

NB Josh

It is a Friday night 7:30pm ET game. Currently The Score has WWE Raw scheduled from 8-10 and Top 50 Plays of the Year from 10-11.
