The unofficial online home for fans of the Western Michigan University Broncos. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

I'm ticked off. Just figured out this morning that on any Bronco football game not televised, I'm SOL. My ISP does not carry ESPN3.

So, I figure I'll go to the MAC website and watch the stream there. No such luck - they are only carrying ESPN3 streams this year.

So, I figure I'll subscribe to Bronco Insider again. Now, THEY are only showing the ESPN3 stream. Screwed again.

F'n ESPN ruins most everything they touch and they screw the fan by negotiating rights so that if you can't receive ESPN3, you can go pound sand. And the league and schools agree to that shiite.

It's like I've been transported back in time 10 years! Thanks, MAC. It's like you really don't want to grow your fan base or even keep those fans you have.

AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH!! Resigned to just listening to Robin and imagine what things look like.

Find a less-than-legal stream online. Like the one Chipfan posted

This works very well and it is legal... if your in Europe.

It's been a whole year and I had forgotten about that site. I'm betting though, that the stream they pick up will be ESPN3.

I'll give it a shot tonight.

good luck MHB!

MHB, I switched ISP's last year when espn3 figured out that I should have been blocked all along, I was on a subnet provider to the old QWEST group, the new people sorted it out, I was blocked and having had ESPN3, I knew I'd miss it and switched right away.

I have read rants from people all over the western U.S. stuck with CenturyLink and unable to get ESPN3 so I know I'm not alone.

Yep.

I wish I could say it is different up here in Montana, but sadly, it is the same.

I am really bummed to hear that about the Insider feed. I was contemplating getting it, but now,....

MileHigh, and others looking for tonight's game - Go to the ESPN website and check out something called WatchESPN. It's been awhile since I was there, but I believe they show the ESPN3 and ESPNU games now. As long as your internet service provides ESPN, you should be able to get the WatchESPN games. No charge. It will take a little time to get it set up, so give it a try. I know that ESPN3 is only shown here via WatchESPN, and it's impossible to get it online in any other way.

Hope this works for you guys! You've got a couple of hours yet.

BTW, the Broncos vs. Northwestern are scheduled on BTN or one of the alternate BTN channels next week at 9 p.m. ET.

No go on that one, as well. Same deal - it requires you to find your ISP on the list of 'partners.'

MHB, I got it to work, but ONLY the live feeds from ESPN 3 (not ESPN, ESPN U, etc). When you are on the main Watch ESPN page, on the right hand side in a list going down are current live ESPN 3 feeds. Clicking on those works. Don't click "watch live" or any of those buttons, those ask to choose a provider. I hope it works for you (fingers crossed).

Nope - it always goes to a screen that tells me it is unable to confirm my ISP.

Finally got the stream from the eu website. Missed most of the first Q. but hopefully, that is the worst part of the game for us.
