TV: 1:00 p.m. CST (2:00 p.m. EST, 12:00 MST, 11:00 PST) on ESPN2

Let's hope for a great game with a great showing of fans in the stands and good TV ratings. If we FCS fans don't watch it, who else will?

Good luck to both teams and I hope nobody gets hurt, other than their feelings.

By Edward Lee, The Baltimore Sun
12:05 p.m. EST, January 4, 2014
FRISCO, Texas – Towson will play in its first Football Championship Subdivision title game without a pair of starters.
The team announced Saturday morning that senior cornerback Jordan Love and senior tight end James Oboh were suspended for violation of unspecified NCAA rules. No other information on the reasoning behind their suspensions was available.
Love played in 14 games, starting 13. He led the defense in pass breakups with 10 and ranked seventh in tackles with 64.
Oboh played in all 15 contests, starting 12. He caught 24 balls for 354 yards and was tied with injured junior wide receiver Spencer Wilkins for the team lead in touchdowns catches with four.

Freshman Juleon Killikelly-Lee, a Gwynn Oak native and Woodlawn graduate, will make his first career start at cornerback. Killikelly-Lee has made seven tackles in 11 games this season.
Sophomore Sean Mooney will replace Oboh at tight end. But the Tigers could go to a three-receiver set frequently.

If you cannot watch it on ESPN2 or ESPN360.com, then try the Wiziwig forum links:

Look under January 4th for the links to each of the games. Some will work for you, some will not. I have had my best luck through my Chrome browser - and not very good luck with Explorer.

DO NOT CLICK ON THE ADS or the links to "update your Media Player"! It wants to download crap onto your computer.
Wait out the 30 seconds until the ads clear and then click on the "CLOSE" button or the little "X" for the remaining box.

You are welcome.

Apparently, ESPN is NOT showing the game on ESPN3, just ESPN2, which I don't have. Ugh!

Try the Wiziwig Forum links. I have the game up on my computer.

Punt on first series for NDSU.

[Bronco]

Looks like the wind might be a factor

I agree with the talking heads
NDSU had the easier path to the championship

If you see the blue Norton box or others in the middle of our screen, don't click on it. Click on the very, tiny "X" on the left and it will go away. Then you can full-screen it on your computer.

Towson forced to punt. Wind pushed the pass down.
