I can't believe that AFN Korea (AFN Prime) is showing neither the Notre Dame/Michigan game nor the Texas/OSU game. Boy will I be homesick this weekend. |

Oh it gets worse. They don't carry the Oscars. AFN Japan does. Lots of times I see AFN ads for shows that get black out in Korea. Not sure why. Probably some local station has the rights to broadcast it. Labor day there was supposed to be some huge Johnny Depp movie fest but that never made it to AFN Korea. |

Not showing the Oscars is a good thing in my opinion...
.. but not showing the Michigan game is an absolute crime... |

yeah, I got the bad news this morning. I am from austin and thought for sure they would have the game. Instead we get Nascar, freakin' nascar. Not #2 vs #4, we get guys taking a left turn for 4 hours. Total crap |

Yahoo sports has the Texas audio feed if you want to pay for it
CSTV.com has the Ohio St and Notre Dame audio feeds again if you want to pay for it.
WBNS radio (1460 the Fan) MAY have a free Ohio St feed
Also ESPN game plan on line will have the video feed of Mich-ND if you want to shell out $20 for it and can get around the blackout area, I think your cc billing adress zip code determines that and according to the blackout map only areas around Memphis won't be getting the game
AFN sports will have both games if you know somebody on base, Damm USO won't be open tomorrow though  |

I think you are woefully underestimating the mental challenge of making a left turn for 4 hours. Perhaps you should walk around the same block for the duration of the broadcast and improve your appreciation of the 'sport'. May I recommend that you drink 12 beers first? That will help increase your speed as you near the hwa-jang-shil breaks. |

From the score I just saw late in the 2nd, maybe it's a good thing they're not showing this game ....  |
