question on live streaming of niu football games
this completely sucks that we will not have most of the road games on television this season. i wanted to know-- if you were to watch live streaming through mac-sports.com, would a niu football game be shown on there if its not on tv? how much is it usually to view it live-stream online? or is the huskie-all-access the most reliable one to use?

any idea if the non-conference nontelevised games (idaho and purdue) would be shown live-streamed online? if so, where online?

If you can access it, most of the away games are on ESPN3.com. I think I watch one game on the MAC website last year because it wasn't on ESPN3. If none of those work, try googling to find a website that streams every college game.

All games will be on ESPN3.com or the MAC stream on their site.

Idaho is the only game that is questionable.

Will Purdue be on the BTN or is that an ESPN3 game?

Likely BTN but small chance it may be on ESPNU if we are undefeated.

B1G home games are not put only on ESPN3.com

Anyone know if I can I stream ESPN3 over my Samsung TV? I stream Netflix, Hulu+, etc., over it but haven't tried searching for ESPN3.

Nope. The ESPN3/WatchESPN app is only on certain devices. I recommend getting an Apple TV. Well worth the $100, especially since they now have the WatchESPN app on it. Beautiful HD picture on the screen.

Other options to get ESPN3 from computer to TV
- HDMI cord
- AirPlay Mirroring (only if you have a Mac)

Good luck trying to find one.. Had one in my cart on bestbuy.com earlier this week, went to checkout, and all of a sudden is was out of stock. Couldn't even backorder it. Tough luck for me.

I haven't seen it being used yet, but my friend said that ESPN3 was blacked-out when trying to mirror with his chromecast.

Incredible quality for streaming video. I have yet to see any buffering or stuttering when using the WatchESPN app on the Apple TV.

The only negative to the app is the lack of a "Search" tab to get games that don't show up in "Replays." For example, the Orange Bowl is still available using WatchESPN on my iMac, but you can't get it on the Apple TV.

You still have to have Comcast right? Or maybe AT&T? Somebody that gives you access to WatchESPN?

Yep you need to be able to access it still with a login. I have Comcast Internet (no cable subscription). Luckily my parents still love me enough and gave me their comcast sign-in info so I can use that to access WatchESPN apps on computer, tablet, ATV etc.
