The Battle for the Territorial Cup 2013

[FArting]

Game has officially sold out

Standing room tickets are $45.00. Get them at the box office on Saturday.

I will be at the game.

Evidently this game isn't good enough for a real broadcast outlet. Game is on Pac-12 Network.....which is not carried by DirecTV.

Sadly I will be buffering my way through the game via an internet stream. Maybe I will get to see the replays.

Welcome to the club! ESPN.com also has a "Gamecast" deal that is pretty good for following the stats. My son is in town from college this weekend, so I may end up just watching the highlights post-game, which is fine w/ me under the circumstances.

News Flash!!!

Direct TV is the "ONLY" real broadcast outlet that does not carry the PAC 12 Network.

Maybe you should direct your ire towards them.

The home team has lost the last 4 Territorial Cup games.

Hopefully, that trend changes on Saturday.

Well, most of my ire would be directed at the Pac-12 network for not being willing to concede to DirecTV's offered compromises. It's not worth having the network if it would force a rate increase because they're charging the carriers such a high price to carry it. I've been with DTV for over 15 years and I'm not giving up the Cardinals and NFLST just to watch one ASU game.

This is the very first time they have even had one of the games I was really interested in watching. All of the other marquee ASU games--Wisconsin, Stanford, USC, Notre Dame, and UCLA were all carried by ESPN, NBC, or FOX. Even the WSU game was on ESPN. So it's not worth it for me to complain about not having the Pac-12 Network for the likes of one preferable game and a couple of other one sided matchups. I'm OK with not seeing the likes of Sacramento State and Colorado.

When they keep rights to ALL of the ASU games, then I'll bitch louder. Right now, I'll be content with watching the game online.

I understand, however I personally don't believe the party line being preached by DirecTV that they would have to do a rate increase in order to provide the Pac 12 Network.
To my knowledge no other carrier raised their price. I have Dish and it is included in the package I already had, no increase what so ever.

DirecTv subscriber here that doesn't get to watch the game this year either. Can't believe they still haven't reached an agreement with Pac12 Sports yet.

I've still got last years game on my DVR… maybe I'll just watch it again.

I have Cox and my rate wasn't increased when they brought on the Pac-12 Network...

OK people, before I feel too sorry for you all who don't have right cable package, let me throw this out there for you.

Grab your Thanksgiving leftovers, your drink of choice, maybe a blanket, and definitely some binoculars and head up to the top of Hayden Butte, aka A mountain. Your choice, portable radio or mobile device for the stream and join the festivities. Scroll down here for directions to the top of Hayden Butte, super easy "hike": http://www.yelp.com/biz/hayden-butte-aka-a-mountain-tempe

That would be the best experience if you can't get into the game. And if you are within driving distance of Tempe, its something to seriously consider.

You can't see into the stadium from Hayden Butte w/ the 2nd level and press box there nowadays. Or are you suggesting they listen the radio and just sorta feel the ambiance?

OK, then you won't need the binoculars! :wink: It would still be amazing

That's a good idea.. Because you won't see a ASU win this year.. Might as well remember the good times in the past..

Or if you really want to re-live a classic, just watch the 2010 game again.

How is 4th and 1 working out for you?

The KittyCats can't convert a 4th and 1 or stop a 3rd and long. 27-0!!

 

[gmabel830]

Embarrassing showing for my Cats thus far... but hey, we beat Duke!

 

[TheHopToad]

Looking good so far. A lot more confident in the ability to beat Stanford at home than in Palo Alto.

Interesting twist with Auburn beating Bama today, that should propel Ohio State into the National Championship game instead of the Rose Bowl (provided they beat Michigan State next weekend). So the question is...who would ASU play in the Rose Bowl now if they get there?

 

[gmabel830]

And the comeback is on!

Probably Michigan State, but they could choose anyone not tied to another bowl.

That was a nice momentum swing.

You'll probably get your running back back next year, too. Can't think he impressed the scouts with his performance tonight.
