I guess Nate Yeskie is the big winner.

Jim is now at Texas.
Do you think Evans will start Wednesday when LSU wins Monday?

There is no game Friday.

Win Monday then you play Wednesday and should throw Evans if Evans isn't used Monday.

You win Wednesday, you advance to Saturday and then you will use Anderson.
Eyanson would throw Sunday (22nd)

re: Anderson or Eyanson vs Arky?

Losers bracket is still Monday 1 pm. Bracket 1 plays Fri Sun
Bracket 2 plays Sat Mon.

That’s definite.
This is a prediction

Coastal Carolina and Arizona will play 1 pm Friday
Louisville and Oregon State will play 6 pm Friday
UCLA and Duke/Murray State will play 1 pm Saturday
LSU and Arkansas will play 6 pm Saturday

only a prediction by LSUBBG82

However, you could argue that Friday's matchups are interchangeable. Coastal Carolina's 23 game winning streak up against Arizona.

But Oregon State and Louisville is a good program as well.
The Schedule was released last week. All games are on TV in some fashion, the only question is the 4 games. DBU and Frisco classic.

These might be the only game i miss, or work hard to find coverage.
I’m looking to buy 4 basketball tickets to A&M game on March 8.

Let me know if you got some

re: WAFB/GCSEN Antenna

Screw WAFB and it's ineptitude antenna, I signed up for Pelicans+ for only 1 month though, will see how it starts. hope it gets on YoutubeTV soon.
Problem is, i don't live 50 miles, i only live 8 miles from the tower.

FCC reported that WAFB uses a 10,000 watt tower, and others are using 30,000 watt tower (Whatever that means).

Our indoor antennas are likely to work with 30,000 than 10,000. I don't speak tower language, or antenna language

If WAFB would upgrade their tower to par with their competitors (WBRZ, WGMB, WVLA, and LPB) then they would be available on more type of antennas.
Where the antenna is i get Channel 2 easily and clearly.

I'll try the Antenna point app.
I don't live in a brick house, I have indoor antenna.

Antennas Direct ClearStream Flex Amplified Indoor TV Antenna, UHF, VHF, Multi-Directional, Reversible, 50+ Mile Range - w/Jolt Switch Amplifier

This is what I have.

I live 8 miles (Saint Gabriel) from WAFB tower,


I pick up other channels clearly.
WBRZ (2.1 & others)
WGMB (44.1 & others)
WVLA (33.1 & others)
LPB (27.1 & others)

I still fail to pick up
WAFB (9.1 & others)

My current streaming provider is YouTube TV.

I guess i would have to subscribe to Pelicans+ for 14.99 a month until WAFB gets their shite together, or YouTubeTV gets their shite together.
But indoor antenna works to the point where i get 2, 27, 33, 44 clearly!!!

Just not 9. WAFB is just being cheap.
WAFB called back and said they are not required to work with indoor antennas. They said that their broadcast tower works well with outdoor antenna.

WAFB still blocking Antenna service in Baton Rouge Area.

I can’t even get 9.3 to save my soul. Where in BR are you? I’m in St Gabriel. But still only 8 miles from WAFB tower.
I’ve gone through 3 different antennas and still do not have access to WAFB’s channels via antenna and i live 8 miles from the WAFB tower. This sucks donkey balls

WAFB sucks balls and FCC tells me WAFB uses VHF instead of the more common UHF signal.

WBRZ
LPB
WVLA
WGMB

They all use UHF

WAFB uses VHF

Sucks donkey balls!
