Not uncommon where I live, but I went to my Dish channel guide last night to set record for the game today on CBS. Of course the local affiliate is overiding our game for the instate FCS teams game. This happens too often.

So now I have to hope I can find a CBS stream that isn't shit. I have the CBS apps on my devices, and on my smart TV. Can't tell yet if the app will let me watch the NU/Mich game or if it will overide to the local broadcast of the instate FCS game. Worst case is tvapp.whateveritis to stream the game, but the quality won't be great and it could buffer or cut out at any time. I don't have cable or fiber to my house in the mountains, so rely on wireless 5G internet, which is decent but not "fast" and can vary by how many people are using the 5G Tmobile network. In other words, no clue if I will get to watch the game live today yet. No ALT channel for the game is showing it on Dish that I can find. The ONLY reason I have Dish is for sports. It's a waste of money as to actually get the stations one wants to actually get all of the sports I want, you need an almost all-in package on Dish. But sports streaming is so sketch, even with good high speed internet, let alone with my Tmobile home internet option, that I have hung on to Dish for many years for that singular reason.

So I won't be in the game thread today, as streaming is usually 5 to 10 secons behind, and don't want to read about plays I haven't seen yet (if I find a stream that works). It's actually better to not be in the game thread anyway, as it distracts from actually watching the game. But man, 2025 and STILL have this kind of shit happening where a nationally televised game may not be available for me.... sucks.
 
Just filled up on gas. 20 bucks for 7.25 gallons, so my prediction:

Nebraska - 20
Michlgan - 7.25
friends fail GIF

I don't know if this will work for you or not, since you said you have a SmartTV and I don't know if that's Android based or not, but this works great on our Firesticks.

Paramount Plus has a one week free trial. The game should be available to you on that.

Paramount plus brother. $5 a month but pretty sure they offer a free trial as well
 
Feels like Biff's Butthole Surfers fans are a lot more confident than our fans are.

If we can stop the run we win. If we can't....might be a long season

You ever met a Biff's Butthole Surfers fan before? They think they’d beat the Philadelphia Eagles by 14+

Thanks man, will give that a try! I use an Nvidia Shield (best one available), which allows installation of almost any app. Which means I can install actual browsers which allow going to any website. Tvapp.whatever it is I have on my Puffin browser app. So that is my final option as I know I can get the game that way, but the quality will likely not be great. Will check out that YT link!

I have the app installed, was going to do the free trial if I can't get the game on the CBS app, which will show my live TV with my Dish login.

Thanks, and same as above, if my CBS app defaults me to the local affiliate stream of the instate FCS teams game, I was going to do the Paramount+ route.


Thanks for the help/suggestions all!
 
Just saw the line jumped big time.

Nebraska now -1.5

If this is accurate somebody just dropped a pant load of cash on our boys. I was hoping to see a line move in Nebraska’s direction this morning. It’s a good sign…
