I don't know about you, but my "alternative" is to just go to a bar with Direct TV and watch the game there and get trashed. Thankfully that bar is within walking distance. Or should I say stumbling distance?

Or, I could go to my buddies who has Direct TV and watch it there.

Sure I lose the convenience of watching it at home. But now I get to be away from the wife for a few more hours than normal

Yeah, I like the part of getting out to a bar and watching the game and getting trashed. Plus watching the game with a bunch of other Buckeye fans sounds good to me!

There is significant discussion of streaming in this thread. There are also other places on this site where streaming has been discussed.

The "Search Thread" and "Search Forum" tools will save you a lot of time and a lot of reading.

For those of you on Cleveland's east side, FYI: I just called the BW3 in Mayfield. It is so far "undetermined" whether they'll show the game. My guess is that the guy who answered the phone wasn't able to find out from his manager(s) in a short amount of time, so he gave up and told me to call back later in the week.

I'll call back Wednesday or Thursday and I'll post my results here.

Edit: In case my plan falls apart, does anyone know of another place on the east side of Cleveland to watch the game?

Update 8-31-07: I called back, and the guy answered like, "Of course we'll have the game." So I'll be there. I'll be the guy rooting for Ohio State.

Most of the BW3s I know of have Direct TV. So they SHOULD have the Big Ten Network. Or at least that is what I am banking on as the Avon Lake BW3s is a 10 minute jog from my house.

Just checked Direct TV and the BTN will be channel 220 and won't launch until August 30th. So if I were you I would call Friday afternoon and ask them if they get channel 220. If they do, they should have the game.

You could try the Fox and the Hound on SOM Center Road. It's pretty close to the BW3 you referenced.
