Well I guess it's WKBC 97.3 for me this Fall.

Re: Comcast viewers beware
Unless I am missing something this is only a concern for the Pen St game and should not be a problem otherwise. I am making a strong assumption that the Gardner-Webb game which is still TBA for TV coverage is not going to be the networks named in the article.NewApp wrote: ↑Wed Jul 25, 2018 12:08 pmCornCobPipes wrote: ↑Wed Jul 25, 2018 11:19 amhttps://www.cbssports.com/college-footb ... n-btn-fs1/

There are workarounds for the Penn State game.
This is my very generic signature added to each post.

Re: Comcast viewers beware
I'm pretty sure you could sign up for Sling TV for a month. I know you could do it last year but seems like there was a question about BTN being available through Sling TV moving forward.
There are other streaming options that can get it. I think HULU is one but not sure which package you'd have to get. A quick Google shows multiple streaming options.

Tech question:
Didn't want to start a whole new thread for this, but I watch my netflix, hulu, prime through my PS3 but I'm looking for a device that'll give me access to ESPN+. Looking at either a Roku or Chrome Cast. Not asking about how you get your streaming TV but anybody got a preference over those two devices specifically for streaming ESPN+?

Re: Comcast viewers beware
Still pisses me off more I'd have to pay for ESPN streaming to watch any of our other games.

Re: Comcast viewers beware
I find Roku more user friendly as a device that doesn't rely on your tablet, cellphone, etc but rather seemlessly incorporates with your television.APPdiesel wrote: ↑Wed Jul 25, 2018 3:14 pmTech question:

Re: Comcast viewers beware
Since ESPN+ will be of interest to many on this board, does anyone know which streaming devices will or will not support ESPN+?
I. Have a ROKU, Fire Stick and Visio Smart TV. All three can serve up most streaming Apps that I typically use. Is ESPN+ limited to any devices?

Will I be able to get ESPN+ on my desk top computer like I did ESPN3?

If they continue to make this more complicated, people will start going to the games again.

Re: Comcast viewers beware
I do think ESPN+ will be accessible through your desktop and through the updated ESPN app, as I understand it.
