Game Week -> UConn vs. USF (10/5/19 @ *NOON*)

In the 40s Saturday night--not exactly mosquito weather. Maybe they changed the timing of this game to get a perceived advantage from a quick turnaround for USF (assume they are flying in early this afternoon). Or maybe its payback for the hoops we had to jump through in 2017 when USF said Hurricane Irma was going to flatten the state of FL and we won't be able to get back. At least our future independent schedule will feature true warriors like New Mexico State, UTSA, and UMass !

I think it's more of an advantage to play them in the cold. Those Florida boys don't like the cold and there's a good history of us winning against USF and UCF in cold games.
 
any ticket code's out there? have 10 or so that need tix

Hey Randy (this doesn't even warrant the HCRE2.0 moniker), yah think maybe this kid who plays 3 quarters of the game with a fractured clavicle might have a little bit of "IT" also.

No, because he doesn't drink Molsons.

There’s dozens of cable channels and our game isn’t good enough to be live on any of them. Sad.

I know right! Or maybe, oh I don't know, the TV schedule was already set and the expectation to have networks rearrange their schedule for a last minute mosquito based schedule change is an unrealistic expectation?

I'm thinking about cutting the cord so I'm think I might sign up for YouTube TV. They will have the game, though it will probably be taped delayed.

Yep. CBSSN will have the game televised on tape delay Saturday night.

Supposedly the game can be live streamed with the CBS SN app on a computer or mobile device. I'll believe it when I see it tomorrow.

Thank you. I don't get why people need to make asinine posts like the one you responded to just to be a jerk.

Good job, no one is gonna bother you....except for those bloody marys.

LOL. This is the one tailgate a year I do for my wife and a few of her friends, and while they bring husbands the menu is done with the women in mind.

So, to play this completely straight -- on CBSSN at noon is Tulane/Army. So, we're not attractive enough to bump that game (which is objectively true). I have no idea how these things work, but if CBS owns the rights and they could have optioned it to, I dunno, CBS, noon-3 is paid programming.

I get that we're not going national on CBS in the noon-3 slot (local stations must have some protections to make $$, etc.), but how can we not get on WFSB, at least, live at noon? Or is it that important for CBSSN to protect it''s rerun in the evening as a 'first aired' or whatever?

CBSSN has the rights. They have a contract with Army - they aint moving Army and Army and Tulane is a WAY BETTER game.

If the game was better a network might try and do something but it’s a game between two teams working on a combined 3 calendar years since an FBS win.

CBS doesn’t own WFSB. WFSB would have to acquire the rights and figure out how to broadcast it. It’s not like there are a bunch of people sitting in their building who can drop everything and do that - if they even had people capable of it.

Tons of games only stream - who cares if this meaningless to almost everyone slopfest is on the internet instead of CBSSN.

LOL, I might have phrased that slightly differently, but yeah.
 
That CBS Stream is currently in 1080p so potentially could be a pretty good picture if you can HDMI to your TV
 
My problem is that don’t get it on cable so I won’t get the stream. I think YouTube TV would help me with that.
