I have an amusing story that's somewhat related.
I work midnights, but never sleep straight through the day; usually I'll wake up around 1pm or so. I had the idea to record the game, get up, and walk on the treadmill while watching.
Did this before with the Pitt-V Tech game in 2015. It was great as I could fast forward commercials, replays, etc.
Anyways I set up the recording on Thursday. I notice the cable company listed the Notre Dame-Boston College game twice, both at 3:30pm and at 12 noon. I set it up to record the Noon broadcast, figuring they'll correct the menu to say Pitt-Ok State.
I get up around 1pm today, look at the TV, see that it's not recording. What the hell? Of course I turn on the TV and see that it's 21-0, so my plan wasn't going to work anyways.
A few minutes ago, I head back downstairs and see that it's recording the ND-BC game.
Figures....
