First, we won't rush the court. Give me a break ...

Second, how is a traditional rivalry game among top 10 teams, one of whom is the defending champy, relegated to ESPN+? Is it because it's just the State of Kansas? Is it because the network folks expected KSU to be dead last when the TV schedules were made? I'm outraged that more people won't get to see us wax that #7 ass.

ESPN sets the time and channel for all of its basketball games before the season starts, and KSU has finished around last for the last few years.

imo, part of it is because we were supposed to be booty this year and the @KU games aren't usually too close. also i think they do want to put some "bigger" games on ESPN+ to get some more subscriptions.
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

And that was what I thought, but what I didn't know was whether there were any ability to flex scheduling during the season, like the NFL does. I guess the answer is no?

I'm sure the national media will check the scores tomorrow morning and notice our ho-hum victory over a top 10 Kansas. Probably will decide to slap us in the face with a no. 5 or 6 ranking next week.

Spracne is absolutely correct.  All the middle-aged Johnson Countians won't have the moxie or energy to rush the court if the Squawks win.

They flex between the 3 linear ESPN channels, not from linear to and from plus though

line is up to +8.5

I think I am going to do it. With that being said, I was pissed that I didn't see Flood Aggie +2.5 last night in enough time to bet it, and we know how that turned out.

I think the safe bet here is the over.  Too much variance to pick a side in my opinion.

How do you access it through HULU? I just checked and the sports section is blank.
do you have "hulu plus live TV" or just plain hulu?
:dunno: The wife got it to watch that GOP wet dream show. I would bet it is plain hulu.
It is on the hulu plus live tv but not plain hulu. If you use disney +, I think the disney +, plain hulu, espn+ bundle is the same cost as just plain hulu and disney +
I have the bundle without live and watch on Hulu. No lag. Works much better than the espn+ app.

I have a thing tonight that should get over around 7:30 and I'm now regretting committing to it because I'll miss the start of the game.

That +8.5 was only -110 so I hit the money line. I'm feeling confident, the 40 year streak ends tonight.
