What are our Internet options to see the games?
Last year, we had a really good opportunity to see the Buckeyes play on ESPN College GamePlan over the internet. I don't see anything this year. Anyone know what our options are?

This could be a lost option of sorts, but if we could get together a bunch of people with Media Center PC's, we could try out Orb ( www.orb.com), which lets you stream your TV over the internet. If a bunch of people host their TV's to those overseas or out of the viewing area, we could have a BP Buckeye game streaming service of sorts.

So, I am right in that GamePlan has dropped Ohio State this year?

I hope not. I just ordered it via the web this past week. I don't think that they have fully decided on who they'll will schedule yet and will probably add and drop teams each week depending on interest, record, etc.

Not sure how the internet version of GamePlan works, but I've not missed a game in four years...every game that wasn't available otherwise (ABC/ESPN/ESPN2) was available on GamePlan. Ohio State is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, set of GP customers they have, so I'm sure they'll be smart enough to make all the Ohio State games available.

They have posted the games for the first three weeks but Ohio State is not televised yet.
I sure hope they telecast our games.

The reson is the 2 first Buckeye games are national games of the week. If I recall, the NIU game will be national, not regional...and we all know the Texas game is national. Those are not shown on gameplan.
For the 3rd week, look at the red letting. The Cincy game will be on there soon enough. Just look at the list. They normally show way more games than that. Heck, Michigan is not on the list either (the ND game is a no brainer...NBC has the rights). Yet I doubt they dropped Michigan too.
