Yep.... two ISU games for $10.

I completely understand the whole "but I don't want to support ESPN" thing.... but if I can watch ISU football, I'm going to watch it. I'm not going to sit here and suffer through not watching ISU football just so I can say.... "take that ESPN!".

I get where you're coming from, but this is sort of like asking why Ford won't sell you a Camaro. Disney offers the bundle you're looking for, with Hulu, Disney plus, and ESPN plus. I'm sure YouTube would love to offer the package you're looking for, but Disney isn't going to let that happen.
That’s what I do and I am currently enjoying the game on the big screen in my living room.

Man I hate it when we are on the app. Id like to switch to the Iowa game on commercials but the app takes too long to load so you can’t do that.

That’s ********. The world needs to work EXACTLY the way I want it to work.
Haha. Have fun with that!

I'm having some 1st game issues. Not sure what to think about it. I've got espn+ however it is not playing the game. I get the link, click on it, it goes there, buffers awhile then just stops. Other appletv is working fine so I don't think it is an internet problem. And I did plug in to etherent also. Just that espn+ not working. Joy! :(

My good and trusty cyclone.com standby is working fine, so I am able to listen to the game via cyclone radio. So there is that. Good ole John and Eric!

Just looked up that score. At 5-3, it's probably OK to pass on that one.
Wow, 5-3, you're right. Unusual score for sure. About 4 min left in game.

Edit: now 3 min left in game. Iowa scored just a bit ago, with another 'safety'! Score now 7-3. Weird.

Now, in the early 2nd half, trying the espn+ and the game working. I'm able to see it finally. A lot of buffering. I think with us it's just the rural AT&T internet conection, not great (at all) speed).

Duh!
It’s a little annoying because the games used to be on tv and for free and now ESPN is making a killing by charging everyone another fee on top of their cable bill. It’s a joke, but whatever.
I used to pay for the Fox Sports Pack to get FSN channels and Cyclones.tv for these games. Now I pay ESPN, not out anything.
