Angry Tennessee High School Championship Football Games Not On Local TV Here!

I can't believe that WAPK isn't picking up the state football championship games this year in my area. They carried them all last year and for whatever reason they aren't this year.

That's not right. We have Greeneville right back there this year and an even better shot at a championship. The games can be gotten on old time rabbit ears from local PBS station(Channel #2).

Are we going back in time or something? I mean to use over-the-air after all this digital technology. What a bunch of idiots. I honestly am just baffled that some local digital channel like WAPK couldn't carry these games. It's really a darn shame!

I did just find out that I could get them all via TSSAANetwork site. I slightly remember seeing this mentioned earlier this year. Do they stream them all Live?

I tried to get the Alcoa game but it wasn't available. Maybe the game was already over. I'll try the 8:00PM game here soon to see if it goes live. I do have another option after all but I'm still mad about some local digital TV station not picking these games up.

Umm.... You do realize that all over-the-air (i.e outdoor antenna or rabbit ears) broadcasts are digital now? The games were broadcast all across the state on local PBS stations in not only digital but in High Definition.

Well, DirecTV doesn't carry the local PBS station that aired the games. I was able to watch them from the TSSAANETWORK site though.

This is a great addition for Tennessee High School sports now. I'll be watching the basketball championships when the time comes.

I have DirecTV and antennas for OTA. I have rabbit ears setting behind a 42 inch Samsung for OTA with all the digital subchannels you should look into trying it.
