According the blogs:
Not all games are guaranteed to be on Fox College Sports Pacific. Our contract calls for coverage on FSN Northwest, which is a separate station from FCS. In the past some Gonzaga games have been broadcast on FCS if there is a conflict with FSN Northwest (usually because of a Sonics conflict). FSN would probably not carry a game both on FSN and FCS Pacific because they are in the same footprint. Therefore, it doesn’t necessarily surprise me that Tuesday’s game was not on FCS.
Your local cable company should be able to give you a schedule of upcoming events. If you want to be guaranteed to catch most of the games you should see if your cable provider has a package that includes FSN Northwest.
Bottom Line- No Fox Northwest, No GU Games
From what I've been able to figure out, if you live out of market, the only way to watch the games is through Direct TV or Dish with a specific sports package that has Fox Sports Northwest.
This sucks. The Zags are one of the few things in the world that have the power to either bring me absolute elation or complete and utter disappointment/anger/rage. This is a case of the latter.
Man...now I find myself wishing that I could hear Craig Ehlo's brilliant commentary more frequently. Well, then again....let's not get too carried away. Maybe watching the games on mute at some dingy sports bar may not be such a bad thing after all. That said, I will still drink the blood of whomever made the call to sell the rights to ESPN.

Seems you've cooled you jets? Get fired up do something funny again. You're a turd fergusen.
Suck it up and get the dish brother. life is too short to miss the zags.
Bravo Matt, however I think the best way to avoid this in the future is to move back to the NW. Go Zags!
