UT men's hoops at VCU on ESPNU Nov. 18th
Part of the ESPN Tip-off Marathon. Game starts at 6:00 p.m. Eastern. 02-13-banana

Even better news: apparently (unless I missed something in the schedule, always a possibility) we don't have to worry about one of my biggest complaints regarding college basketball on TV: the 2-hour time block. Doesn't appear to be a game at 4 Eastern on ESPNU. Games inevitably run more than 2 hours, and fans miss part of a game unless ESPN is able to switch it to another channel. So if I'm right about that and we see it from start to finish ... 02-13-banana02-13-banana02-13-banana

Here are two links. This was announced almost 2 weeks ago, and I just saw it for the first time. I don't remember seeing it posted here. Sorry if it was and I missed it.

E$PN is dumb for giving only 2 hour blocks for the game. Should be 2:15 at a minimum.

You're absolutely right. And it doesn't seem all that difficult to figure out either. On those rare occasions when a game runs less than 2 hours or 2:15, they have guys in the studio to discuss games and show highlights until the next game begins.
