UK/UL - Live on ESPN Classic and Local Networks

[WOFOJP61]

The University of Louisville's football game at the University of Kentucky on Sept. 15 will be televised live on ESPN Classic at 7:30 p.m. ET, as well as on local stations in the two school's markets. WHAS-TV in Louisville and WKYT in Lexington will also carry the ESPN Classic telecast live. The local stations are also permitted to produce their own pre-game, halftime and post-game productions.

 

It is the Cardinals' seventh game this season which has already been selected to one of ESPN's family of networks.

So all of WKYT will get the game or just Lexington. Because I will be in Morehead and wanting to know where I can watch the game.

[SvFan4life]

Ah well nevermind I'll probably just go to Bdubs and watch the game while eating some wings.

Espn Classic huh? Maybe they know something we dont, perhaps they are expecting a classic?

Many said the game would only be on tape delay... the freaking out can be taken down a notch now.

Glad to hear this news, looking foward to it.

I still think so. Exposer is reduced, it just isn't as bad as it could have been.

Are there truly that many football fans that don't have a way to watch this on ESPN Classic that would watch it anyway? On top of that, 95% of the people that don't watch it will catch it on SportsCenter anyway...

 

They'd still be 'exposed'...

It doesn't have nearly as much to do with it being on ESPN Classic as it does with it not being the only game in town.

 

The reasons for moving the game still have to do with "losing" the game. If UK were winning every other year, it wouldn't have changed. That make them chicken.
