Football Game Pay-Per-View Info

NORMAN, Okla. -- Several cable television systems in Oklahoma and Texas and nationwide satellite TV services DirecTV and Dish Network will offer Oklahoma's season-opening football game against Chattanooga on Saturday, Aug. 30 at 6:00 PM CT on pay-per-view. Suggested retail price is $29.95.

A one-hour pregame show beginning at 5:00 PM CT will commemorate coach Bob Stoops' 10th season at Oklahoma and will feature interviews with former Sooner players and celebrities in attendance about the impact Stoops has had on the OU program in the last decade.

The game is being televised on pay-per-view because it wasn't selected for over-the-air broadcast or cable television coverage. Under conference TV rules, games not picked up for regular television distribution can only be televised live on pay-per-view, giving fans the option to watch a game they otherwise wouldn't be able to see.

Tim Brando (play-by-play), former Oklahoma running back Spencer Tillman (analyst), former OU quarterback Paul Thompson (sideline reporter) and FSN Southwest's Emily Jones (sideline reporter) call the action. Former Oklahoma quarterback Dean Blevins will host the pay-per-view telecast from Memorial Stadium in Norman, Okla. and anchor the pregame show.

FSN Southwest will replay the game in a one-hour format on Tuesday, Sept. 2 at 11:00 AM CT as part of its new "Big 12 No Huddle" series, which will feature condensed telecasts of Big 12 games throughout the season.

Listed below are programming providers that will offer the live telecast on a designated pay-per-view channel (more could be added prior to kickoff). Cable TV subscribers must have digital cable to order the telecast. Customers can order the game from their set-top boxes or by calling their local programming provider:
