kstateHD was absolutely awful. Audio never synced up with video, and of course the "HD" feed looked like dogshit on a tiny 17" screen. I think I preferred the trouble free and money free ESPN3. (ryhmes)
espn3 isn't free

how much does it cost?
well here in kc you need the Internet to watch espn3, they charge for that here.  you also have to buy espn, which they also charge money for

add both of those up and espn3 costs a portion of that sum

well I have the internet and ESPN and I pay about $150 a month for both. what portion of this sum is paying for ESPN3?

Michigancat, do you have DirecTV?  Back when the FSN games were only available in Kansas it reportedly was possible to get them out of state if you changed your DirecTV billing address to a Kansas address.

I don't know if this would still work, might be an option if Kstatehd doesn't improve

you don't need to give a Kansas address.  As cc pointed out earlier the games are now on Fox Sports Midwest, as opposed when they used to be on FSKC.  Now anyone in the country that gets FS Midwest can watch the Cats.  All you have to do is have the sports package.

Hopefully that is the case, especially when the Cats get moved to the alternate channel (673 or whatever) when the Blues are on

i'm just saying for someone that has it all-in for currie getting these new bball tv contracts hammered out with learfield and fsn, i would expect you should be able to describe, in vivid detail, the variances between what we paid to be able to watch ksucats bball last year when frank was here, and what we would have to pay this year to watch them.

ok, someone should add that info to the schedule, or somewhere else. Where did you pull it from?

http://www.kstatesports.com/sports/m-baskbl/sched/ksu-m-baskbl-sched.html

If you click on any game in that schedule, the little box to the right will have a link that says "Watch" in there if it is being streamed. Most of the non con games have that, except the one that is on ESPN3.

Now, I will say that normally by now there would been a release from K-State about where every game is on TV throughout the year. That has been delayed by negotiating the FSN-KC/FCS/KstateHDTV relationship. There is ongoing discussion about what areas should be blacked out online, who has rights and are they exclusive etc.

My guess is they are waiting until that's completed and announced before listing FSN or FCS for all of those games in the sched.

I love that 1-page PDF schedule.  I've had the earlier one up on my office wall for weeks now with a shitload of TBAs and no tv listings.

Also, MIR, the "other" games in the early rounds of the NIT are in fOOD.  Mush.

CC, if I'm getting off a plane in DFW at 7:30 next Friday and want to watch the game, do I have this right that I can either quickly find a place with FCS OR find wi-fi and get on my kstatehd.tv account with my latop?  No ipad options?

A slingbox is cheaper than an annual kstatehd account.  Also more reliable and less of a hassle.

Well, I've already paid for the kstatehd (which KK and I used game 1 to watch the football game before seeing it was broke and moving on to an illegal foreign distributor).  Ideally, we'll promptly find a nice place to eat, pak & watch FCS (correct?), but if you'll have it on your TV and give me the password to watch it via laptop/ipad/whatever, I'd take that as a backup.

It works for me. Much better than Tuesday, actually.
