ESPNU

HFCS said:
I'll eat crow if I'm wrong, but I'm really quite certain anybody who can see "Crunch Time" right now, will be able to watch the game live or late tonight watch it in the archives. I think even watching content from the archive section means you can watch ISU tonight, the A&M/ISU game is still archived and maybe a few others.

This game will be a 200 to 1 outlier in my ESPN3 experience if it's not on there. I watch about 5 games a week on espn3 between college fb, college bb, nba and soccer. If it's in upcoming, it means it's upcoming on espn3.

Now 2-3 years ago ESPNU really did mean "never on ESPN3" which is why I can see people thinking it's not going to be on there.

I've never had an issue, either.

I'm also pretty sure that my parents watched the OK State game earlier this year, which was on ESPNU, through ESPN3.

Did you try it? Did you get the video to play? I am in phoenix, AZ and have a different ISP provider so my results could be wildly different. I got the popup and will be watching via justin tv or similar.
 
PER ESPN Help 1-888-549-3776 The game will not be on ESPN3.

hope this clears up any confusion..
 
Will it be on clonezone? I have never paid for clonezone, but am considering the 1 month since the espn3 isn't panning out.

How likely is it that there will be a stream?

Again, there is a DIFFERENCE between ESPN3 and WATCHESPN. If you are one of the few people with cable TV through Time Warner, Verizon FIOS, or Brighthouse Networks (which I'm guessing you aren't), you get access to all content, including all the ESPNU content online and the game tonight. However, if you are like most people, who just have ESPN3 access, you only get access to the ESPNU content they allow ESPN3 to broadcast, which has been most, but not all ESPNU content from this past year. If you don't believe me, try watching the SEC storied show listed on ESPNU right now and it won't let you watch.
 
Didn't have time to dig through all the posts, so forgive me if this has been established already.. but will there be any internet stream at all (besides espn3) for the game tonight? I can't make it to B-Dubs or any place like that..have to do this little thing called study

I bet there are some people on here that still think the game will be on ESPN3 because it shows it as ESPNU...

The two correct answers here.

ESPN certainly doesn't help with the confusion by redirecting espn3.com to watchespn, making it all look the same.

Its more like everyone gets a 'basic' watchespn, which plays espn3, but not the 'plus' version of watchespn that plays things from espnU.

Unfortunate that this is all tied to cable providers too. Gives you no sympathy for the media cos when they complain about people pirating streams when they dont even give end-users the option to buy an individual subscription.
