RE: Fox College Sports
The fact that this game is only on some sort of “geographic extension” of Fox Sports is typical MAC execution by the great Dr Jon.

How is is it that last nights game was on ESPN+?

The current semi-final game is on CBSSports.

Yet the second game you need to jump through hoops to view.

Thanks for nothing Dr Jon.

Yes, this needs to be fixed, either keep it exclusively on ESPN+ platform, or have some type of TV package coherence.

I cannot stand DirecTV. When I call them, I get someone in Asia who I don’t understand and they don’t understand me. But the one thing I do understand is when they tell me to smile. So I don’t call them anymore and instead attempt to use their web site. Nope, doesn’t work. Keeps freezing up my screen. So, I have resigned myself to never contacting them. When I want to cancel my service, I will just stop paying the bill and throw their equipment in front of my house.

Horrible on the part of the Mac. Keep it on ESPN + since we’ve all had to subscribe to that now. I believe it is on the Atlantic version of this channel which makes even less sense for two Midwest schools.

I cannot stand them either, horrid customer service. I tried to go the streaming route on PS Vue, but when Bears played Seattle last season their servers locked up and I just could not take it anymore. Also the lag on streaming where you might get a text about the result before you see it happen was not appealing to me. I came crawling back to directv ugh. The actual product is great, the customer service and cost, OUCH.

I'm sure the buffalo game would've also been on espn 8+ if they weren't nationally ranked and have so much hype around them. Now everyone gets to see them choke on national tv.

Nope. Absolutely ridiculous that the game is not available in Illinois.

I signed up for the free trial of PlayStation vue. They have the channel on there. Plan on cancelling after the game.

Tried to watch it on Roku the right way......Even listed the game on the Fox Sports App. When it loads it is a show about high school baseball?! What?

Looks like BWW in DeKalb doesn’t actually subscribe to this channel after all. Waste of time.

WHAT THE F*** IS GOING ON? Why is some bull**** baseball show on when it says NIU is on? I have PSVUE. Absolutely infuriating. First NIU basketball game I've looked forward to watching in my life
