A TV Update For This Weekend
Notre Dame-UCLA is one of many games being shown on ABC at 8 p.m. Saturday. For those in the Midwest and other places, there is a direct conflict with Ohio State-Purdue, a Big Ten game between two undefeated teams.
At least in Fort Wayne and in other places around Indiana, this poses a problem.
In Fort Wayne, here is the solution. Ohio State-Purdue will be on regular ABC (Channel 21). Notre Dame-UCLA will be on MyTV, which is broadcast on Channel 33-2. In order to get ND-UCLA, your television set needs to have digital capability. You don't need to actually have digital cable, just the capability to show digital cable on your set.
There are other options. You can find your local sports pub, which will be able to show the game if it has ESPN's Pay-Per-View Gameplan option. Or, you could buy the Gameplan.
That, of course, is up to you.

Anyone know where we can see a map of what areas get coverage of game? Or know if the game will be on in Florida?

Just look on your local ABC affiliate's website. It should have the information you're looking for.
