THis is the scoop on Directv. Still don't understand it, but here it is. I stayed on the line almost an hour and the service rep went through engineering, managers,etc. This particular game is blacked out on Directv in Mississippi and Directv has no sayso according to Directv. The reason they said was because the game was not a sellout, so the SECN would not allow Directv to broadcast it. THey also said that Comcast could have exclusive rights where they could broadcast with no blackout.
