According to lsusports.net, channel 698 – LINK It may not be ready until Saturday morning, but if you tune to the channel you should be able to order it with your receiver.
I'm curious about this game as well. Is it not on ESPN Gameplan? Surely someone will pick up the South Carolina game? major network? Doesn't make any sense otherwise.
The MTSU game will be on ESPN Gameplan. The SC game will either be on CBS in the afternoon or ESPN/ESPN2 regular starting time. An announcement is due Monday.
The MTSU game will be blacked out/unavailable in Louisiana on ESPN GamePlan (channel 777 in the rest of the country). But it will be available via the PPV purchase option, supposedly on channel 698. At least that's what I've concluded.
If you login at DirecTV’s site, this link should let you order the Tiger Vision game (LA and TN only): https://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/mydirectv/ppv/order/orderPayPerView4.jsp?program_id=401950727
