You need to find a friend in the US willing to "sling" BYU games to you (my brother did this for me). The box goes at that person's house, you log on and watch what they are watching. Greatest invention EVER for BYU fan expats...

They have a pay per view option? If true, that would be great because I don't

No. No. No. I'd have been their first customer. Non-Subscribers don't get ESPN

No idea. Have a tv, but don't have a cable service.

Wait, wait, wait. The LHN got rebroadcast rights to this game and we didn't?

The difference between paying UCONN for the rights

It tells me there's going to be demand for it in Texas leading up to the game...

Does this mean I can't watch it free on WatchESPN on replay?

Pretty sure you'll be able to if you have ESPN3 access.

Without logging in with a cable provider?

ESPN gave LHN that right to rebroadcast BYU-UCONN

Heinz57

8/29/14 9:06am

It wasn't ESPN that gave the rights

mogelijk

8/29/14 9:38am

And ESPN said to LHN sure, yes show case BYU vs UCONN

Heinz57

8/29/14 9:41am

The question is still "why"? Why would LHN pay for the rights?

Marking Time

8/29/14 11:35am

Because Texas doesn't know what to do with their $150 million budget?
