Sep 1, 2012, 5:08 AM

Areyou freakin' kidding me?!?!?!?!?!?!

I currently cannot get WatchESPN and use espn3 to watch about half of our games every year. I am completely and utterly pi$$ed off if I'm not going to be able to see our Tigers because of this ESPN bull$hit. God knows I'm not going to get any love out here in Texas with more of our games on espn networks on TV. They usually do that reverse mirror BS to screw us over anyway, and sometimes you get screwed even if the coverage map says you won't. Each year espn finds a new way to f&@k us! Every freakin' year!!! Man. I'm too excited to sleep because it's gameday, and I wake up at 4:30 AM to see this. Maybe the bright side is going to more watch parties with the Clemson Club. I hate having to find a bright side.

Well, thanks for posting, anyway. I'll get on this today.

Godspeed!

GO TIGERS!!!!!!

As long as you have a computer with internet access you can stream ESPN. I watched Vandy and SC yesterday. The URL still has SC and Vandy's name on it, but the link will still get you there:

As long as you have a computer on the net try:

http://www.thefirstrow.eu/watch/138050/1/watch-9.-south-carolina-vs-vanderbilt.html#

The address still has the SC / Vandy wording but it still works.

Have fun watching the game and Goooo TIGERS......

When was the last time justin.tv had a bunch of games?


Sep 1, 2012, 6:29 AM

Just wondering. Seems like a shell of itself from a few years back. Certainly not as reliable as http://firstrowsports.eu or http://vipbox.tv

True. It seems to stream better on my phone than firstrow for some reason.

What about the youtube deal the acc made


Sep 1, 2012, 7:24 AM

Will they stream it there.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Not sure about the quality though

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

as you can see on that link football lists audio only***


Sep 1, 2012, 7:36 AM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No, they'll only stream stuff ESPN doesn't have the rights


Sep 1, 2012, 7:35 AM [ in reply to What about the youtube deal the acc made ]

to. Football will never be on there, just the audio. There you'll only get some of the crappier basketball matchups and all the other sports.

Dang...didn't see that***

like i said early in the summer...


Sep 1, 2012, 8:20 AM [ in reply to No, they'll only stream stuff ESPN doesn't have the rights ]

SEC got CBS/ESPN, PAC 12 got Fox, Big 10 has its own network

we got youtube.

great deal by our commissioner

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

We have ABC/ESPN


Sep 1, 2012, 8:46 AM

SEC games are on WatchESPN now too not ESPN3.

Pac 12 has Fox and their own network, yet they can't get anyone but comcast to carry it. In fact they've had to dig to these tactics to try to put pressure on other providers to carry them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtNoRjRBpYc

The Big 10 network is doing well, but some major providers are now talking about dropping it, including Dish Network which will be interesting to see.

ESPN cannot find anyone to pick up the Longhorn Network, even though they did just get UVerse on board last night. There is talk they might use their out clause in the next couple years and terminate the network. Big 12 also has ABC/ESPN just like the ACC and also is dealing with the WatchESPN problems as well.

The ACC's problems vs the other conferences aren't quite as dire as you make it out to be.
