The good news is that if you live in a certain corridor and have the right TV provider you will be able to watch Dartmouth-New Hampshire this weekend without taking out a month's subscription to FloSports. CLICK HERE to see if the game is being carried in your zip code and if so, on what providers.

If are hoping to watch in Hanover it will be in HD on Comcast channel 779 and on DirecTV channel 630-I. (It will not be available here on our Vermont hillside.)

EXTRA POINT
I dropped Mrs. BGA off at the park & ride to catch the shuttle bus into Hanover at about 6:25 this morning. There was just a hint of fog. By the time I turned for home and got halfway up the hill the fog had started to roll in and it has only gotten thicker.
