Just a stab, but maybe try to find the coordinates to the game and then find a place with a big satellite dish that can show the game after they input the transponder numbers. It all depends if you can even view it, whether they have it blocked or not.
When Bradley men would play Creighton, it would air on KMTV (the CBS affiliate in Omaha), and somebody here said that you could go to a bar if they still have that big satelitte dish (Kouri's down in Pekin?).
Otherwise, I'm not so sure if Mediacom would distribute it to another town where another cable company has the city's franchise.
And while Mediacom does have cable franchises in certain towns here in Illinois, there's probably a determination on how much interest there is in the game. If it's the Quad Cities, I would think they would air the BU-Iowa game simply because of geography.
Not so sure in other parts further from Iowa. Mediacom would not distribute it based on Bradley.
Hope this helps.
