Given time ESPN+ should gain great market penetration.

Is ESPN+ really going to be a thing? No way that's sustainable, right?

I thought it was a fad at first, but with Hulu & Disney+ it's staying.

It's the future. Most people in my generation don't even have cable.

Looks like it is $5 to watch. Lame but better than nothing.
BYUtka
9/16/19 9:40am
You are wrong. Nothing is a lot better than $5.
ochobeeguy
9/16/19 12:34pm
Then don't pay the $5 and get that "Nothing" you claim is better.
BYUtka
9/16/19 12:40pm
No
ochobeeguy
9/16/19 12:44pm
TIC alert...Paying nothing is better than paying $5
ochobeeguy
9/16/19 12:46pm
Not when paying nothing means you don't get to watch the game.
BYUtka

Remind me, ESPN+ is not available except through a separate purchase, correct?
RexIdaCoug
9/16/19 9:40am
Correct. It is a separate subscription.

I hate that I have to pay more to watch my team, even after I paid for ESPN.

I have ESPN+ and I love it and will bundle it with Disney+ and Hulu in Nov
nephicoug
9/16/19 9:41am
That bundle will be when ESPN+ really takes off IMHO. But it is already doing pretty well.
Tokolosh
9/16/19 9:42am
When can I buy that particular bundle?

How many games will Boise & UCF have on ESPN+ this year?
BYU Fan
9/16/19 9:46am
You don't have a Roku, Apple TV or Chromecast in 2019?
molodyets
9/16/19 9:49am
Or just a smartTV? Almost every TV sold in the past several years can have ESPN+
Tokolosh
9/16/19 9:52am
Or PS4 or XBox?
2FarGone
9/16/19 9:52am
Or smart phone? You can stream through that as well. So many options!
TailgateU

Nope - I watch TV for sports
BYU Fan

You can likely access this through your TV if it can have apps installed.
Tokolosh
9/16/19 9:58am
I actually figured out how to cast it to my smart tv.

9/16/19 12:34pm
We can't control the TV coverage of road games like Umass
cougaman

Honestly, BYU shouldn't schedule the game then
BYU Fan

You should be the AD then, Genius.

Disagree. We don’t have to play at Umass but Toledo is a really good team

9/16/19 9:44am
Sure. The AAC just signed a huge contract to have a significant number of their games on ESPN+ too.

Experts are also saying the Mountain West could end up with ESPN+

Do you think we don't have better TV coverage? It's easier to watch BYU football than ever before.

As of now I won't be able to watch 2 football games on my TV this season
BYU Fan

Why can't you watch it on your TV?

I've got to figure that out - I've never tried streaming anything before
BYU Fan
9/16/19 10:12am
Happy to help or offer advice on what is possible.
Tokolosh
9/16/19 10:13am
Since half the games are based on the opponent's TV contract, this has nothing to do with independence. Besides,

Boise has exactly 0 on ABC so far and 0 on ESPN proper. They will play 4 games on CBSSN

Can ESPN+ be DVDed
BYU71

That’s what I don’t like about it. Probably can’t DVR it, doubt they’ll let you

Will BYUTV repeat the game. Might be hard to not find out how the game went,
BYU71
9/16/19 9:43am
No because it's not a home game
Indy Coug
9/16/19 9:43am
They often get away games that are on ESPN. So I'd say maybe
Schultz is back
9/16/19 10:38am
I'm sure BYU promises ESPN an ESPN+ game each season.
kccougar
9/16/19 9:45am
This game is at Toledo so not even part of the package that BYU has with ESPN.
cwilke1
9/16/19 9:54am
...and YouTubeTV doesn't allow ESPN+ access anymore. Time for HuluTV
Saxa
9/16/19 9:46am
ESPN+ is not ESPN3. It's completely separate, stand alone.
molodyets
9/16/19 9:48am
well.. that's not so bad then. I'm up for $5.. but I need to reset my brain for
Saxa
9/16/19 9:54am
This is such an easy solve. You likely can do a 7 day trial and if not it is only $5.00 to sign up.
Tokolosh
9/16/19 9:55am
It's $5 for a month. There's a decent chance the USF game could be on ESPN+ too and you could get both games for $5
Pete
9/16/19 10:00am
Are games on ESPN+ available to watch after it is over?
BGRTHNUMEGO
9/16/19 9:47am
It's $5 people...I'm sure we can all step up.
B Blue

Tokolosh

with inflation adjustments, costs less than watching in the stake center

Early east coast game. Could be tough for the team to be ready that early.
cougaman
9/16/19 9:50am
That’s the worst part. Western teams tend to struggle early in 12 noon ET games.
chilango

We played Michigan in the morning. That was a fun one.
D.T. Survivor

Part of the problem with that game was we flew in so late too. We got there
BYUtka

Got there late + did a fireside.

Yes, it’s really dumb to only arrive the night before with a 12 noon kickoff and
chilango

This true? Very poor planning
puntersarepeople
9/17/19 12:13pm
I'm guessing ESPN knows they are going to get BYU fans to pay for this game; hence the reason to put it on ESPN+.

Hulu has live sports

This has nothing to with your cable provider.

Just pay the $5, watch the game, then binge all of the 30 for 30’s.
