    Negative. I think WGSO will carry it but you won't be able to pick up an AM signal inside the "Dome.

    Will the UL Network that carried the regular season games throughout the state carry your broadcast of the Bowl?

    It's my opinion. You might agree. You might not. It might hurt your feelings or offend your sensibilities. Too bad. You don't have to like me. I don't have to like you. We don't need to be drinking buddies. That's the greatness of America. At least it used to be.

    Problem with Radio pup is there is a delay of almost a minute or so from live unlike listening to it on the AM or FM, figured this out for the Arizona game.

    I was going to say Radiopup, too. Hope there's an internet connection there. During a home game, I couldn't find out about Gauthier's injury via twitter, FM, or internet streaming radio because of no connection (thanks At&T)

    Jay, would love to hear your call of the biggest UL football game in 41 years...any chance you'll archive the broadcast?

    Also good luck streaming data in a cell that is going to be packed with 20,000-30,000 extra users. Observe how troublesome it is to make calls and send texts on campus during the week or during tailgating/games.

    You realize that you are talking about a facility that routinely handles 80K? I think the Superdome can handle it.

    In years past, the WWL broadcast would be re-broadcast within the Dome. Is that no longer done? Or will it be the wrong AM/FM broadcast?

    Trust me, AT&T can't handle it. I was there Sunday night for the Saints-Lions game and I had turrible service.

    Yep, me too. Only about 10% of my texts went out. Now maybe with only 40K in there it may be better.

    I was at the same game. Verizon coverage was decent. Not great, but it worked.

    I have ATT and can never get Internet to work on the iPhone during saints games at the dome. Also get the red exclamation point when trying to send texts usually too.
    Maybe with 25-30k people there the service will improve, but don't count on it.

    Again, just echoing he above posts.
