Anyone have any idea who will carry it? CST again or do you think a network will pick it up?

ESPN has all the rights to the super regional...all 8 of them are broadcast on the family of networks.

Actually, if you've got satellite wait till they start that "whip around" coverage crap where they leave the lsu game in the fourth to check out Texas, FSU or some other.

Last year I can recall that during one of the lsu games, they left it to check out the uga game. I checked and had uga on espn2 espnU and espnAlternate with no lsu. I live in Mandeville, La. ESPN is crap and the Directv/Dish network subscribers will find that out this weekend.

Not that anyone watches, but the baseball "expert" on ESPNU just said we were the favorites to win it all. Hopefully they can get at least one game on ESPN or ESPN2.

Did that last year, believe me. Nothing. I looked at every possible channel and subscribe to every possible sports channel there is ESPN ESPN2 ESPNU ESPNclassic ESPN360 ESPN A(several). I called and emailed both Directv and ESPN and they both blamed each other. It happened in 2004 and 2008 and will happen again this year.

If you don't get the local cable ESPN broadcasts(and you don't with satellite tv) you get national coverage with rotating between the games.

Yeah I remember it happening last year as well during one of the super games iirc. Had two channels covering the game the went to then they decided to start showing the LSU game on yet another channel, but didn't start the scrolling alert about it till well after the fact. ESPN hates college baseball!

Kyle petersen from ESPN is hoping he geta shipped to LSU. All he ever talks about is the food at the tailgate parties.

I remember switching to the alternate ESPN channel after ESPN/ESPN 2 went away from the game. I believe it was during Game 3 vs. UC Irvine. It was a blow out, yet, the alternate channel showed it until the end.
