It will not. It will stream live through watchESPN.com if you have access to that service and ESPNU through your cable provider.

why not??
I think all the other espn3 games have been on the MAC site too. The MAC site seems to be faster, prob due to less traffic.

I don't think the game will be on ESPN3 because of it is being broadcast on ESPNU.

The OHIO @ CMU game is NOT listed on the ESPN3 schedule of upcoming events on 11/10. I assume it will only be carried via ESPNU.

Did not know they did not stream U games, weird. If we are on any of the other Espn channels then they have the stream. Suck for those folks who still can't get the U

If the game is on ESPNU, you will definitely be able to find a few online streams on firstrowsports.tv

It does seem to show up on ESPN's TV schedule you linked. It is not listed on the actual ESPN3 page of upcoming events.

What I seemed to gather from work tonight is that most people probably won't be able to watch it on ESPN3. I could not watch the Toledo-Western Michigan game. It showed up in some places and not in others, but if you did click on it, it said something about your service provider having to be contracted with ESPNU. I was signed into ESPN3 remotely with my home Internet and I get ESPNU at home but I still was not able to get it.

That's actually exactly the rationale -- they're trying to encourage you to upgrade your cable package. Very rarely is any U content streamed through 3, the only things I can think of are special events like a few pre-season CBB tournament games and CBB conference tournament games last season.

Also, the ESPN3 games you've streamed through MAC-Sports.com would've been regional broadcasts (the ESPN+ regional broadcast package or STO package), not games actually produced by ESPN for their own networks. Complicated, I know, but hopefully sheds some light on this for ya'll.

Also, Jeff, you seem to have spotted an anomaly on the programming site that I cannot explain, other than to say it is an error.

This would be the WatchESPN platform I was discussing, which they are melding into a unified interface with ESPN3 to some extent lately. To authorize for it, you have to jump through some hoops with your television provider as opposed to your ISP (even though, yes, they're probably the same company). The number of providers is fairly limited at this point, as the service is relatively new, and this is the kind of thing that gets added in carriage agreements that are only negotiated every handful of years. The one company of note to this audience (and, based on your location, I would assume to you) that had an agreement for the service is Time Warner Cable.

Essentially, WatchESPN allows you to stream the linear networks online (E1, E2, EU, GoalLine/BuzzerBeater) that you have access to through your cable package.

You have a responsibility to watch the 'Cats roll. Even though your cable provider is wretched, you need to upgrade for the next month so that you miss no Bobcat Action.
