I will be in Missouri. No Cox 22.

Are there other options?

Sometimes the ESPN3 games are on the 790's channels on Direct TV.

WSU 89
ISUB 70

I just switched from Cox to AT&T. So far the WSU games in the 700 channel group on DirecTV seem to follow the same blackout methods as ESPN3.

[1979Shocker]

I think all Cox games are carried on ESPN3. But I'm not sure if the blackout follows your phone to Missouri.

ESPN3 is blacked out for any state that has a MVC team, unless it's not being carried on TV. So that would mean Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, Indiana, and Illinois would all be blacked out.

I hope SM is 100% and motivated. DW playing great offensively
but we are soft defensively when both SM & RN are both sitting.
Hope we send a stern message to everyone in the Valley
Wednesday that we will still rule the roost. Ball movement,
playing angry, and depth are the keys to a solid start. WSU
wins 68-63

Seemed like last Season by the time we reached the Valley Race, the word on the street was "throw every funky zone created at them and even the kitchen sink". The Jackrabbits do such zones anywho but it did not work in our barn. Yes, we have shooters, and we can score, but how so on the cold and lonely road? Dunno, but if we establish our inside game, rebound, and defend/cover on our foes like a cheap suit without excessive fouling, we should be finer than a frog-hair. We used to have "Jack Frost Shooting Games" but our defense and rebounding was ranked rock solid on a National basis and we just won games through it all.

Road games in the Valley get spooky and the warriors that are tough mentally will survive to the finish line. Against Ok.St. was the ball just bouncing their way, they wanted the loose balls more, or both? This I do know. We do have the talent, the coaching, and the quality depth to win another Valley Ship. Even so, that's why they play the game because our foes might just think we are ripe to be surpassed in this here Valley. This first Valley game will be of essence to win and jump-start another Season in the Valley on a positive note.

Thanks for posting this!

Drake and Bradley will win 8 combined games (not counting their head-to-head games)? God, I hope not.

This will be a preview of most of our Valley road games. A LOT of fouls on us, close for at least a half, and then our bench strength closes the deal.
