The game did not air on directv columbus either. My recording came up blank.
Must be something with your recorder. I watched it on DTV Channel 7. Had to share the first half-hour with Jeopardy to keep peace in the family.
This is why it's important to record Jeopardy every night!
I set the recording from my phone, which has always worked, but I think it tried to record off the comcast feed, which I don't have, so something went awry.
Life is hard.
