t it was a DirectTV blimp.

DirectTV has Fox Sports 2 in the bay area.  Comcast does not. 

I *knew* there must have been a conspiracy!

My lovely DVR faithfully recorded the Fox Sports 1 channel during that 1st quarter.  Oklahoma was up by a million points.  And after the game they spent time with a post-game interview of the OU player.  Errrr....

The Pac-12 needs to take those games if the broadcaster is overbooked.  Should be an automatic.  It would not have helped my DVR or many others without Pac-12 nets, but it would send a message that if our conference is not important to you then we will broadcast it until you are ready.  Ideally a missed start would force a simulcast on Pac-12 Bay Area,  in this case, and whatever Fox Sports Channel Fox folks select.  Catch is that once the start is missed the Pac-12 channel gets to simulcast the rest of the way.

Not going to happen, but just hate that the Big Game was pushed away so that everyone could enjoy Oklahoma win by more than 30 points over Kansas in a driving rain storm.

At a minimum, the Pac-12 should be able to rebroadcast the entire game that same weekend so that everyone can record the full event.
