You can always subscribe to NFL Game Pass and plug-in to the TV monitors in a dorm lounge. Maybe you can get together with a couple of other fans and split the cost. I know many students who do this for soccer games.


You actually cannot get NFL game pass in the US,...only available to those outside the US.


There's DIRECTV's NFL Sunday Ticket.

*sigh* Steeler fans. :roll: (kidding)

Don't worry, Mooze.. I'm with you. NFL Sundays are pretty close to non-negotiable for me.

Murphy's is actually pretty decent (and within walking distance from the dorms). They have a nice setup and a few solid TVs... I joined a bunch of prospectives/students at Murphy's during DivCo to watch the Thursday night game (Raiders/Chargers?). No idea if they have a satellite though.

Consider me in the same group. Personally a long time Sunday Ticket subscriber, and I've got my wife just as excited for Sundays as I am. Heck, she watches the draft with me, now that's true love!

The DRAFT?! Is she running for wife of the year?

I almost want to start a new thread titled "Tuck 2012 - Calling All NFL Fans". At the very least, I'm going to friend you all on gmatclub. This is (ironically) not a game, people.

I don't respect, and cannot watch, any league that can't fairly determine a clear cut champion at the end of the season. The fact that my school blows at football has absolutely nothing to do with that conclusion.

Seriously,...how do you recruit arguably the best pro receiver (Fitzgerald) best corner (Revis) and one of the best RBs (McCoy) in the league and can't even win the lousy BigEast at least once over the past 10 years???? That mess doesn't even make sense.

Does Tuck do background checks? Not worried at all but just want to know if I can expect to be contacted in the coming weeks to sign some kind of consent form.
