Which ESPN games are you talking about?

The BTN will show multiple games on one time slot, but all (or at least most) cable providers/packages will provide overflow channels so you can swith to any game you'd like. The game on the "main" BTN station will feature whichever game the cable provider in any given market chooses to air.

you "can't" do regional coverage with cable channels.
Yes you can when ESPN is owned by Disney/ABC. Watched the Iowa-Penn State game a couple years ago in St. Louis on ESPN or ESPN2. Talked to people in Iowa that said they were watching on ABC.

Not sure if this is what you are talking about, but for the last year or two, ESPN2 has been showing one of the 3:30 ET games that ABC usually divides multiple ways via their contract with the ACC, Big East, B10, B12 and Pac-10. In DC all of last season, they would show an ACC game on our ABC affiliate and a ABC's 3:30 B10 game on ESPN2. Depending on where you live, they'd use ESPN2's feed to bring the viewer another game, like, say if you lived in Louisville and wanted to watch something other than a shit Big East game, which would be somehwat interesting to about 99% of the football-viewing population there.

Not that it matters all that much, but I heard somewhere that the tOSU-USC game will be televised on ESPN because ABC has a prior NASCAR race commitment. How the hell did that happen?
