So if they had left the Outback Bowl on ESPN we would still get the game, but they moved it to ABC so more people can watch, and now less people will watch.

I've been with Directv for almost 10 years and there are problems now and then, but before that I had Comcast and they were even worse. I also like NFL Sunday ticket, today I can watch my team play even though the game is not on here locally. For those looking for morning programing, try Fox 35. They are still on and provide much more local coverage in the morning.
I wish I had seen this sooner. I set it up on line so hubby could watch the game on Nbc.com. I did have to log in to our Direct TV account but he was able to watch it on our computer.
