I would recommend signing up for the free 30 day Hulu trial the day of the NIU/BC game, that would mean it would expire on Oct 1st. This would allow you to stream both the BC and SDSU games on the Hulu live tv service for free. Just be sure to cancel before Oct 1st to not be charged for the first month of pay service.

30 days does not offer live tv streaming. That is the 7 day free.

Good catch. I was thinking of ps vue with the 30 days. Too bad ps vue does not offer CBSSN. At least one can watch the BC game for free
I believe You Tube live offers it. I believe they offer a long free trial.Having said that I think it us on limited devices(not on Roku). In limited areas too but believe Chicago is one that is good.

I'm talking about DirecTV Now, their streaming service for cord cutters. You get 60+ channels for $35/mo, with premium options.

AT&T has announced that it has signed a deal to bring the CBS family of channels to its DirecTV Now service.

The deal will see entertainment, sports and news content from CBS, Showtime, The CW, CBS Sports Network and Pop arriving on DirecTV Now over the coming weeks, with at least some of that content being made available ‘on demand’.

If you're an AT&T unlimited choice wireless customer you get $25 credit every month towards DirecTV Now. So you can get that $35 per month package for $10. That's what I do now.

Sweet. I will switch bact to DTV Now. Good deal. I might switch to Hulu when it becomes available for ROKU though. Direc tv now may even give me something for switching back.

The San Diego State game will be a late one, hopefully not as late at the Wyoming game.

I like the CBS announcers and won't have to watch the ESPN3 stream.

It's scheduled for a 930 PM Central Time start but there will be plenty of places open late enough to take it in. Friday's locations are open till 2AM every day of the week now.

Speaking of start times, hopefully the CMU road game the Friday after Tday won't be too early. If it's a 1PM start, a drive to Mt Pleasant Friday AM is possible. At least it's not a mid week night game

I really miss those 11 a.m. Black Friday home games. There was a sort of magic in the air, albeit those games were not too well attended (like other weekday games). Wish we could get at least one of those back. For me, it's a ton better than a midweek night game.

I think I remember a game on the day before Thankgiving one year, starting at 11:00 a.m. Snow maybe that day too?

Not well attended...

That was vs WMU in 2005 to win the MAC West.

RE: CBS to show three NIU games.
Scheduling being what it is and in the control of morons, it is completely stupid to schedule a game the day before Thanksgiving. Many people have off or take off the Friday after Thanksgiving ("Black Friday") and are not about to take the day before Thanksgiving off to attend a Huskie game. But, we all know who controls the schedule, and getting fans to the stadium is not their concern.

Just for the record we had 18,361 against Western Michigan the day before Thanksgiving.

No. 1: Attendance as a whole was better then. No. 2: There was a lot on the line that game and it was marketed as such. People made the effort to be there because a lot was on the line. Set up a game now the day before Thanksgiving with no meaning attached to it and see what attendance we get.

I agree with you I was just stating what the attendance was for that game because it was higher than what I had remembered.

RE: CBS to show three NIU games.
Keep getting ads for something called fubo.tv which claims to have CBSSN, and is a sports-centric streaming service, has anyone tried this, and if so what was the picture quality like?
