From WAC Twitter:

Unfortunately the #WAChoops men's game @NMStateAggies at @ChiStateCougars scheduled for 2 pm CT on the WAC Digital Network will not be broadcast today due to technical difficulties. Our apologies.

Ugh... I was about to tune in and get my first look at Chicago State this year.

Not sure who is at blame here. The WAC has had multiple “technical difficulties” during the year, but then again the game is at CSU....

I don’t see the live audio link being active either so it’s likely CSU.

The last time I watched a game played at CSU, it was on the WAC digital network. The stream quality was good, but the sound wasn’t amazing. Also... the commentators were likely students, and they seemed about as unenthused as possible.

I’m at the game and LOVING how the Coogs are playing. Thanks to the Aggies who made the trip. Not sure why there aren’t concessions.

WACDN= Technical Difficulties.

Ever since the old EP left, the WAC DN has become a joke. Danner and Hurd weren't even considering OTT platforms until a company they were buying production software from suggested OTT to them. This is what you get when you have people with no initiative running a conference.

No concessions?? Jesus, this school is a mess right now. How many are there you think? Ratio of NMSU/CSU?

Really nice arena though. Went through it a couple months ago in Chicago. "Luxery" box was open too! Got a free soda from the fridge lol

There’s more NMSU fans. They brought about 200.

There’s 2 camera people at center court recording (1 from each team) so not sure why the game isn’t available. Game is playing on the projector screens.

Really proud of how the Cougars played the first 18 minutes!

There is a pretty good contingent of Aggie Fans in the Chicago Area.

As for why the WACDN is not working, that's becoming the standard MO.

Looks like NMSU is pulling away at this point. It’s disappointing about the broadcast, or perhaps more appropriately, lack of broadcast. I wish other schools had the same quality local production as GCU was lucky enough to get. I wonder if somehow the folks who produce that would be interested in expanding to the whole conference? NMSU Aggie Vision was pretty decent, but I didn’t like the RoosTV platform as it didn’t work for most of the game I paid for two years ago.

NMSU looked great in the 2nd half.

97-60

Jans really likes Hadley. He will be playing a lot in the future.

So much for technology day!

Chicago State was no match for NMSU. But the other three games tonight should tell us a lot about the conference pecking order.

I think UTRGV beats UMKC by about 10 or 12, UVU tops Bakersfield by about 8 or 10, and GCU edges Seattle in a tight contest by about 4 or 6.

For Lope and Aggie fans, The next game will be telling. I think GCU and NMSU split this year, with each team winning at home.

Looks like the UMKC and UTRGV game is working using Roku and the "new" technology. At least the pregame commercials are working. It may go off the air once the actual game starts.

UMKC game stream is up and going strong. Yay for working technology!!!

Lofton did not start, because he was late to a video session.
