HERE'S MORE
ETA:
Cox cable advises they can not make the LSU game available on ESPN 2 because of contractual obligations with ESPN.


In short, if you have Cox basic service, you can’t watch LSU. If you have digital service, you can watch on ESPN Classic, cable ch. 245. Part of their sports tier.

If you want to get digital and don't have it, Cox does make digital boxes available on a short-term basis, similar to their treatment for games on TigerVision. Offices (BR, Gonzales, Denham, Lafayette) will stay open an hour late tonight and open early at 8am tomorrow to accommodate customers. They will have to subscribe to digital cable in addition to getting the box, but Cox offers short-term subscription plans.

Bottom line -- people looking to watch the game will have to pay about $15 (15.25 per month actually, but no contract commitment – they can cancel when the month is up).

Box is $5.25 a month…service which includes 2 tiers is $10 a month. One of those tiers would be the sports tier which includes ESPN Classic.

Hope that helps.

it will also be on espn 360.

eta:

When I talked to my guy at espn this morning he said it's up to local providers, but they have the option to put it on ESPN2. So you might get lucky and they can use that programming on their air. Not saying it's going to happen, but there is the availability.

Also, just got back from the presser, the band, walk, etc. is all still a go for tomorrow morning, albeit very early.

Link? I heard on the radio that it was reported, but ESPN had jumped the gun and it wasn't confirmed yet.
