Is this game on the national Pac-12 Network? Or regional?

And F YOU Comcast for the lack of HD!

Wait. WHAT? I was told by the Comcast guy when I signed up that the Pac 12 net was in HD. Is this not true?

In Colorado, one should get the mountain regional net in HD in Comcast (in boulder it's 840). The national net is in sd somewhere in the 430's. I think this emphasis the p12 puts on having 'networks' is a bit confusing for fans. In this case it's pretty simple - the colorado v ucla game is 'national' and on all 7 different PAC 12 nets. The regional aspect would only matter if the buffs or utes played a different game at the same time. I could be wrong, but I don't see that the p12 would air some secondary sport in place of the national football broadcast.... They would show another football game, but that's only an issue in ooc season.

Bottom line is that the buffs will always have their football games on in HD in colorado (and Utah).

Pac-12 Network is NOT offered in HD outside of the Pac-12 footprint.

Good info. Thanks. The regional channel is probably where I'll spend most of my time anyway. Although it would be cool to see some other games in HD. This probably sounds nuts, but what I'm looking forward to most is skiing coverage. CU and UU have nationally ranked ski teams, and the Pac 12 network should really help both programs a lot.
 
Can someone tell me the time of kickoff?

I have seen two different times. 1:00pm or 4:00pm, both mountain times.
 
Honestly, I don't care if Pac 12 Net is being greedy. I want Pac 12 Net to get every penny they can. A lot of that money filters down to CU eventually.
You and I and other Buff fans. Unfortunately, we are probably a minority of their vewership.

WSU AD Bill Moos was interviewed by John Canzano on a local Portland radio earlier today. Have not listened to the archived podcast yet but here what he tweeted
.

Moos: "That average of $20 million a year (in TV money) is far more than what Phil [Knight] and Penny were giving us back in the day."

John Canzano ‏@JohnCanzanoBFT
Pac-12 TV deal with addition of Dish and, maybe, DirecTV is worth another $5 million-10million in additional revenue PER UNIVERSITY

John Canzano ‏@JohnCanzanoBFT
Moos: "The Pac-12 is for real." 750am
 
After reading some of the posts in that article, Scott appears to be the bad guy in all of this.


Just a hunch, but I think the folks at USC fashion themselves to be very much like what UT was in the Big 12 - the king of the hill. Larry Scott has mandated that every school have the same position. I think there's some lingering resentment of Larry Scott at USC. It doesn't make sense, because USC is still a powerhouse athletic program and will make a boatload more money now than they ever did before. I could be totally off here, but that's the impression that I get. Larry Scott is the hero to 11 out of the 12 member schools.
