FSU game rebroadcast on BYUTV Sat. at 9:30pm?

I was flipping through the channels last night and thought I saw the FSU game would be rebroadcast on Saturday night at 9:30pm. Did I see that right? But I can't find any confirmation on the BYUTV website anywhere. I don't think it could be for last year's game as we don't get have the rebroadcast rights from VS/CBS-C/MTN. And that would leave 4 hours for the game to air before ESPN turns it over to BYUTV. This is exciting for those of us who don't get ESPNU. What's more, it must mean that in the Independent TV contract signed a couple of weeks ago, BYU must have gotten the rights for all previous BYU games aired on ESPN, as well as those for this season (before the Indy season starts). I did see a VOD for the Tulane game (originally aired on ESPN) on BYUTV's website so that must be the case.

I was wondering this too. I have seen the OU and Tulane games on BYUtv on-demand on the internet and was hoping that ESPN was giving games to BYU now. My cable where I record the games doesn't get ESPN-U, so I'm hoping for a rebroadcast on Saturday night.



Fortunately, I'll be at the game in Tallahassee.

Yes, it is this year's game. Awesome.

MST 9:30 just confirmed it on Directv schedule. Cool

Wow. How refreshing it is to have a TV partner that will work with you.

very nice. dvr is set.

Will they show the ESPN ads or will they be stripped out? Will they edit part out to fit it in 2 hours?

Usually, they take out all of the time outs, commercial breaks, half time, injuries with significant stopped time, etc. to condense it to two hours. Not a bad way to watch the game if you can't be there live or you don't have ESPNU and DVR. I get to watch the first hour, go to Stake Conference and listen to Elder Bednar for four hours, then come home and see the remainder. I love DVR.

They won't have much time to edit it.
