As I was preparing to set my TIVO for tomorrow's midday contest between Georgia Tech and Dayton I was absolutely shocked to find that ESPN was not carrying it - or any of its affiliates. Not even CBS College Sports or the local sport channels (MASN and CSN). I simply don't understand how they could leave this game to a local Fox affiliate. This is the first match up of the year between two ranked teams and it looks to be a real close(and high scoring)game as Vegas set the line to a "pick 'em". Not to mention a chance to introduce the world to the diaper dandy that is Derrick Favors.
Isn't ESPN the station that was airing Clemson/Liberty and Tulsa/Arkansas-Little Rock during the same time slots two days ago? Maybe there is some unknown TV contract that nobody knows about, but this seems inexcusable. Its not like ESPN doesn't think its worth it to take the trip down to Puerto Rico (the site of the game)...they are televising Villanova/George Mason which is the game that follows Georgia Tech/Dayton in Puerto Rico!
Still some good games on TV tomorrow:
#6 Villanova vs George Mason - 2 PM ESPNU
Indiana vs Ole Miss - 5 PM ESPN2
#24 Syracuse vs #12 California - 7 PM ESPN2
#4 North Carolina vs #15 Ohio State - 9 PM ESPN2
(If you want to still see GT/Dayton you can find it online. I'm going to give this site a shot).
