They gave up those rights. ESPN wants you to sign up for ESPN to watch.

They want you to rewatch on the ESPN app with your paid subscription. Same with Fox. They don't make money if people are willing to wait for the free rebroadcast. Other than some rare (impossible?) circumstance where a game doesn't get picked up at all, gone are the days of sports on BYUtv... Other than men's volleyball because that's not a Big 12 sport and maybe replays after some extended period of time.

BYU playing Sam Houston on FS1 is cool

Icelandic Cougar

Its nice to have this as our first game too.

MormonTupac

5/31/23 3:28pm

Same with SUU

Sam Houston St is now FBS as of this year. It's the same caliber of game as

jreid191

5/31/23 3:30pm

How can we watch that game for a fair price? Is that even possible? I don't

Mitty

5/31/23 3:32pm

I don't know that BYUtv will have any games anymore

CameronG

5/31/23 3:33pm

Can't tell you how frustrating that is. Basically my only source for seeing

Mitty

5/31/23 3:34pm

That would be a bummer.

Icelandic Cougar

5/31/23 3:41pm

I'm guessing they'll still produce the game but will air on ESPN+ instead

jreid191

5/31/23 4:28pm

I just hope that somehow byutv gets the rebroadcast rights to these games

Loyal2Royal

Get Hulu Live and you will get it

Pergamino

5/31/23 3:33pm

How much is that, like $75/month like everything else?

Mitty

5/31/23 3:34pm

For being snarky, I will let you investigate the price yourself.

Pergamino

5/31/23 3:39pm

I didn't know, went and looked. Regular Hulu is <$10/month which I could swing

Mitty

5/31/23 3:45pm

Are you new to this? FS1 is a “cable” channel. You need cable. YTTV, Sling,

rainorsnow

5/31/23 3:47pm

Yes, totally new. Haven't had any kind of TV subscription since I could split

Do YTTV 1 week free trial. Fubo Tv 1 week free trial, Hulu 1 week free trial,

UMWolverine

5/31/23 7:31pm

Come over to my house you can watch.

baldcoug74

5/31/23 8:25pm

You need Hulu Live not regular Hulu to get FS1

Pergamino

5/31/23 4:16pm

Sling has ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN 3 and FS1 for $40/mo. Doesn't have ESPN+

Florwood

5/31/23 6:32pm

I believe Sling Orange has ESPN and ESPN2, but not FS1. Sling Blue has FS1, but

rainorsnow

5/31/23 6:52pm

That’s true, but you can switch back and forth between orange and blue without

Florwood

5/31/23 8:47pm

You can probably find some sketchy streaming site

Icelandic Cougar

5/31/23 3:42pm

Nope, believe me I've tried and tried for 10 years.

Mitty

5/31/23 3:46pm

You are terrible at searching if you haven't found anything in the last 10 years. BM me on game day and I will help out

scootsy

5/31/23 3:59pm

Sling is great. Like $40/month

Backcountry

5/31/23 3:43pm

Looks like it's $55/month if you want FS1 and the ESPNs, so still too rich for

Mitty

5/31/23 3:50pm

Dont buy both. You can switch back and forth and then cancel when football is

Backcountry

5/31/23 4:02pm

Appears that is the cheapest possible option discovered so far, but so

Mitty

5/31/23 4:15pm

I get it. You can watch the entire season and just about all CFB games for $160.

Backcountry

5/31/23 4:20pm

Question - can you watch the games on replay on demand with Sling? I don't

Mitty

5/31/23 5:03pm

I cant remember..

Backcountry

5/31/23 5:26pm

Generally, I don't think you can watch on demand, but their may be a record

here's to hoping

5/31/23 6:05pm

Don't we all. That's the ideal we've been asking for for decades.

IdahoCoug

5/31/23 4:36pm

I don't understand why a disruptive company hasn't started doing that,

Mitty

5/31/23 5:06pm

Sling Blue package is $40/mo and that package has FS1.

rainorsnow

5/31/23 4:06pm

$75 a month to watch 4 games isn't a lot of money.

RSL

5/31/23 3:48pm

I'm sure it doesn't seem like it to the rich.

Mitty

5/31/23 3:52pm

Who's rich?

RSL

5/31/23 3:55pm

Rich people.

Mikey

5/31/23 3:53pm

+1. I'm sure if you tell us the general area where you live, someone would

rainorsnow

5/31/23 3:55pm

Great idea, but with three tiny kids at home I don't really have the option,

Mitty

5/31/23 3:57pm

If you're in Idaho, hit me up. You can even bring the kids.

IdahoCoug

5/31/23 3:59pm

Check that. We're talking about a home game. I'll be in Provo.

IdahoCoug

5/31/23 4:01pm

Are you intentionally trying to make your life sound miserable?

Sports bar.

It will be interesting to see if our viewers increase this season. I bet they do

thewaterboy

5/31/23 3:55pm

If ticket demand is any indication, sounds like people are excited to watch BYU

rainorsnow

5/31/23 3:57pm

Will BYUtv televise any FB games during the 2023 season?

Forzaitalia

5/31/23 4:30pm

Probably not. BYUtv crew will probably do the game on ESPN+ against SUU.

Narfin'Coug

5/31/23 4:51pm

Nope. Only options already got broadcast details announced. Sam Houston is on FS1 and Southern Utah is on ESPN+.

scootsy

5/31/23 4:54pm

Will BYUtv do a rebroadcast later that night, next day?

BYUHgrad

5/31/23 7:41pm

Highly unlikely.

rainorsnow

5/31/23 7:44pm

They gave up those rights. ESPN wants you to sign up for ESPN to watch.

Narfin'Coug

5/31/23 9:41pm

So, who do I cheer for?
