Trojan fans not traveling to Dallas this weekend can still catch their home team in action thanks to a new contract between Troy Cable and ESPN 3.

“We surveyed the customers and it’s what the customers wanted,” said Jake Cohen, chief financial officer for Troy Cable.

The service is free for Troy Cable Internet users. Simply log on to ESPN3.com at game time and watch the Trojans vs. North Texas live on a computer.

Once users navigate to the ESPN3 website, there is a blue button at the top right of the screen that says, “watch now.” A click there will bring up the live feed.

“You can actually watch up to four games at once,” Cohen said. “There are also features where you can watch game replays from previous weeks.”

Everyone who subscribes to Troy Cable should have immediate access to the website, but if there are any technical issues, Cohen said the Troy Cable help desk will be ready to assist.

“We are happy to provide this,” Cohen said. “We wanted to be competitive and satisfy our customers.”

Kick-off is set for 6 p.m. Saturday.
