How are things on the West Coast? | by Pat

The coverage map for the ABC broadcast of the Notre Dame/UCLA and Ohio State/Purdue game is out and it isn't good news for ND fans. Most of the country is going to get the Buckeye/Boilermaker battle royale. Click the image for a larger version.

So, what can an Irish fan do to catch the game?

1. Hit up your local Alumni club gamewatch. To find the contact info for your local club, use this site.

2. Order the game using ESPN GamePlan, assuming your local carrier offers it.

3. Tune in to WestWood One Radio and listen to the game. You can listen online here or check the radio station finder to see if any station in your area carries the Irish broadcast.

4. Load up ESPN360 on your computer, assuming your ISP carries it, and watch the game from the comfort of your computer monitor.

5. Roadtrip with BGS and countless other Notre Dame fans to the Rose Bowl and cheer on the Irish in person.
