It appears that DirecTV will be showing each individual NCAA Women's Tournament game in its entirety at channels 788-791 or thereabouts.

Gotta love DTV.

I know...and just when I'm thinking about switching. I swear the price goes up every month and the "fees" have become a long laundry list.

Yeah, I'm not re-upping after my 2-year deal is over. Other than the basketball, I just don't need/want the rest.

I love it, but you have to call and beg for discounts.

It's too expensive the 2nd yr., but it's the most WCB you can get. My sub. ends in June. I might dump it after the tournament and try one of the shitty streaming options then re-up next season.

Another great thing about the men's tournament is staggered start times not all within 15 mins like the women

Dish appears to be doing something as well (on 145-148) although it's not clear if it's every game since they also say you can get all the games by paying for ESPN Full Court on 462-465 (for $79). Too pricey for me so hoping I'll get at least some options on 145-148. |
I think DirecTV stopped selling Full Court two or three years ago, so I think this is free, at least for sportspak subscribers. |
DTV did this during the Olympic games and did not charge even if you fif not have the sport pac. Hope they don't charge for this I'll have to check unless someone finds out before I do and post it.

They show 4 channels for the 4 majors in golf, usually 2 channels of 2 or 3 people groups. In the 4 majors for tennis, they have 6 channels for different courts. I like it because I follow a few "middle tier" players.

It would be nice if wrap around coverage actually wrapped around.

I am not getting any of these extra channels! Seems like one must have Sportpack to get them! Has anyone without spartpack getting them?

Fios airs them...tho I find for the very beginning it often picks up a few minutes late so you may have to look at the national coverage for a few minutes.
also will need to find the college extra channels...normally buried in the high high numbers but they're now in HD (when I had directv they were SD, small price to pay)
Announcers seem much better this year so far...and Taylor lobo and landers do a good job.
exciting games too and apparently they were actually whipping (tho as I said I had all 4 games up)

Sort of similar to today's UConn-Albany game but tomorrow Ohio State-Kentucky is the only game at 12 but then you have 3 games around 2:30. WVU-Maryland, DePaul-Miss State, NC State-Texas. Why not move one of those games to 12 so its easier to follow both instead of having three games at once, which makes it hard to keep up with?

I wish the women's tourny went back to the Sat/Mon & Sun/Tues schedule. Less time going head to head against the men's tourny. More chance for eyeballs on Mon & Tues. sigh

Direct.
Edit: I may not be getting what I thought that I was. Just tried to get the Stanford New Mexico game and says I'm not subscribed.
Only game I'm getting is the L'ville/Chat. game. Yesterday, I got the Belmont/KY game. I'm not in a protected area for either game.
Last night, I thought that I recorded the FSU game, but now I see that I only got the DTV logo.
Guess I'll be happy with what I get. Would be nice to know ahead of time since I'm travelling and setting the recorder.

I got all 4 channels yesterday but today I'm only getting the L'ville/Chattanooga game as well. Plus, we lost our local CBS station with about 4 mins to go in the men's Notre Dame vs West VA matchup. As if I needed more reasons to dump DTV!! I seriously think they have gotten worse since the AT&T thing happened.

Thanks, when I read that there was trouble yesterday, I checked my channels. It had the order form on the cover. I called and asked them to check becasue it was free last year. After a long conversation the first lady told me it was for overflow games. I told her there won't be overflow because they are playing on the same floor. She said there was nothing else to do. After I hung up I opened my guide and on 209.1 "For extended WBB NCAA tourney coverage, please tune to channels 788-791." So I called back. I got a guy and told him thatI called earlier and I just read this and he did some checking. He told me it is included with the sports package. I would have to sign up for 3 months to get it and if I cancelled early, there was a fee. He did some manual things and gave me a credit and a date to cancel it so I won't have to pay the fine. I'm getting them all now.

How much is the sportspack? I thought it was Iike $5 per month.
To me it's the primary reason for having DirecTV. I can't hardly imagine a sports fan paying for DirecTV and not including all the regional sports channels, the specialized sports channels, and extra coverage like these tournament channels.
If it wasn't for all the sports stuff, I'd probably switch to FiOS.

I think it's like 12.00 per month, and the cancellation fee was $10.00.

Oregon and Temple were tied with 5 mins left and I was watching on ESPN Sherri Coales having a conversation with a ref during a review in a 12 pt game in the 3RD QTR.
Yeah I'd say ESPN'S coverage could be better.
