Anyone have any experience with this? This will be my first NCAA tournament with both HD and a 100" screen. Most likely my Tigers won't be in the tournament and I would like an alternative to Illini and shitty MVC coverage. The $69 price tag may seem a little high, but probably pales in comparison to what I end up betting over the 63 games. So here are my basic questions (feel free to add any positives or gripes)...
1. It looks like the game mix might black out some of the channels for local TV. Am I only going to end up getting 2 channels in the game mix instead of the 4 that are going at once?
2. About how many of the games end up being in HD?
3. Does this go past the first and second round? The sweet sixteen and elite eight rounds are usually where I feel the worst pinch if some team of "local" interest has made a run while real high quality game is being passed over.
Side question: Why does DirecTV clutter up the game mix channels with 50% crap? It would be cool if I could get four 50" games, but I will probably (from the looks of the screen caps) end up getting four 25-30" games.
