So, I’m hoping to watch the exhibition games by ordering ESPN+.
Anybody have experience with ESPN+? In particular, I rarely get to watch the games live, so I want to know if the games will be shown on replay, and how long after the game they air.
If you’re in the know, lemme know! Do not want to waste my hard-earned $5 if I can’t replay them.
Yes, you can watch replays.
Thx Shark.
All 6 games that are not on the networks will be on channel 38 in the KC area.
Sadly i'm quite a distance from the KC area.
Drew Gooden country!
These early season KU games including exhibition all pretty much used to be at least on espn 3 ... now, because apparently more people are dropping cable, Disney wants to try the pay-as-you-go model and target certain audiences and get some income. Thus espn +.
I think there are only like 5 early season games that will be on espn + for those of us outside the KC area

No problem.
For anyone wondering the rest are all on normal ESPN channels (so watchable through ESPN3) EXCEPT for home to Texas Tech and AT Okie Lite which are CBS games.
The interviews made ESPN+ Way better than ESPN3 in my opinion. It seems like ESPN3 barely airs the whole game before cutting out abruptly. ESPN+ had a 3.5hr production, much nicer.
I did enjoy some of the pregame material. I’m spacing on the host’s name...former KU shooter. He was a bit awkward.
And is Bahe the normal guy or was Piper just Sick?

Not sure but if anyone finds this out I'd be interested to know. Bahe was fantastic, imo.
Dave Armstrong?
Jeff Gueldner did pre and post game
Chanel 38 in KC showed the 30 minute pre-game and 1 hour post-game shows.
And - because I’ve forgotten this before, I don’t think CBS has an app where you can replay games which I often have to do because my schedule doesn’t allow me to see them live, (which is a great feature of ESPN app ) so I’ll be sure to remember to record those two CBS games. (it’s also fun to watch a game twice, to pick up on what certain KU players are doing away from the ball etc.)

Gueldner! Yes. Thx.
He seemed kinda twitchy.
So let’s see, is it:
TV: Dave Armstrong and Nick Bahe?
Radio: Greg Gurley and Bob Davis?
Bob retired. It’s Hanni or something along those lines. He’s not the best.
Brian hanni, I like him. I’m about the only one
Crimsonorblue22 said:

Pretty much.
He also came up in another thread recently. Wish he would be fired and they hire someone better.
@Crimsonorblue22 You probably aren't the only one. But boy, it is hard for me as well. He's sounds like that rich country club fellow talking about polo, the fall mixer, and his days a Yale.
@HighEliteMajor I've talked to him a few times and he's really nice. I meant as a person more than as an announcer. I think he's very knowledgeable and does a lot of homework. I hate the rock chalk it up. He's passionate about the Jayhawks so I like him.
I don't dislike him as a person, because I don't really know him. But lots of nice people are bad at their jobs. I don't think enough people really care nor is it of the upmost importance. Plus they'd have to pay more for someone really good so I imagine Hanni sticks around unfortunately.
It's just such a sharp drop-off from Bob which does not help Hanni by any means.
@BShark I can’t stand Hanni. It doesn’t matter what he says, because his radio voice is the worst bit of canned junk you’ve ever heard. Ruins the message whatever it may be.
@Crimsonorblue22 Sorry. I can’t stand Hanni or Gurley. The radio show has been completely ruined for me since Bob retired (who was excellent). And Bob was just a poor mans Falkenstein in my books, so it’s been a rather rapid decline from the absolute best broadcasters you could have to someone who sounds like he’s still in college trying to figure things (his voice) out.
I only heard the twilight of Falkenstein's career (90s-06) but I thought Bob was pretty much just as good.
I thought we didn't get the Boston college game tmrw, but it's listed on my espn+ schedule. Is that right? I also get the the acc channel on cox. Anyone that watches Vb, that's on espn+ tonight.

he is terrible - - try to listen to the broadcast - - -BOB & Make did great - -Hanni half the time just rambles - -doesn't a lot of the time give you how many yards was made on a play - doesn't give you a lot of time down and distance - -will just be rambling on about GOD knows what while they running a play. - -Bob always gave down and distance focused more on the game - - not Hanni

talking right over a play a lot of time - - terrible giving what's needed to pick upi a 1st down - -a lot of times just rambles
I'm wrong on the espn+ ku fb game.
@Crimsonorblue22 Is the game broadcast on anything other than the ACC network? Pretty sure we don't have that in Lawrence, but I'll be at my inlaws.... Direct TV
Acc
I get it on cox
@DanR maybe this? DirecTV users, meanwhile, can see the ACC Network on channel 612. My son has direct tv, he's going to check and see if he gets it. He has an watch espn app and uses my cox password to get some stuff. Do they have an Apple TV or box? Or do u have an iPad w/watch espn app? He'll get back w/me
I have the ACC Network on Youtube.tv and also through the Roku Streaming Stick.
The ACC network is on the CW most the time with bunny ears at my place.
The Roku channel carries the ACC digital network. Dunno if it will carry the game as I don’t find a schedule for the channel. ???
UPDATE: This channel is apparently only highlights and reruns.
If u have the free espn app I think u get it. I'm afraid to say.
If you're not able to watch this garbage, be thankful. Watch something else - ANYTHING else.
I'm watching
Rough game
3pt game fellas 💃🏈 in your face!
We r winning!
U chickens
We could still get beat but we r in this game
@Crimsonorblue22 I am too. I may be eating a whole lot of crow. And happy to do it!
Offense looks good, great calls. Can't stop those big bc backs
@Crimsonorblue22 I just told my wife "why didn't they play like this last week?" (When we were at the game!)
@nuleafjhawk time, maybe?
@Crimsonorblue22 maybe
This game is far from over! I never give up though
@nuleafjhawk probably cause u parked at Walmart!🤡
Crud!
@Crimsonorblue22 do you ever forget anything?
@nuleafjhawk no! You r not a beige car guy!

Ewww Kansas state, we r not!
Td!

Can't wait to hear the halftime comments!

I don't care how the rest of the game goes - - -no that's not true , - -but load the Crow plate up for me.
Mercy a lot of game left but I'm telling you really proud how these guys have played after that terrible start. - -4 STRAIGHT TD drives
Parchment is a stud- or seems to be - -Carter - after me cussing him early tonight - -taping my mouth SHUT -
Long game another whole half - -hope we can keep this up - -looks like a team for once - -and Pooka really hasn't been huge - -been a lot through the air and then Herbert one HUGE run - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
I think I'm in love with Herbert
@nuleafjhawk fun times! Where's the other whiners?
Up 14, not over yet
@Crimsonorblue22 Nope, as a KU football fan, I've learned not to get too confident until the game is over. But this is FUN.
Me too
Go clock!
Great D
Pooka reads those holes?🕳
Having fun!
I'm hoping he's faking that a tad!
Go clock
Short!
Great D!
@nuleafjhawk I was thinking about going next week, but first I wanted to make sure you and your lovely wife weren't going? Maybe a Walmart trip in Salina?🤣
Did you see what coastal Carolina did in the locker room last week?😳😭😥🤬
@Crimsonorblue22 no, what?

I'm to busy enjoying having my Crow lol
@nuleafjhawk they had a Jayhawk piñata and poked the crap out of it. It was all over Twitter. 🤮😭 it hurt!
@jayballer73 your buddies should be eating w/you!😂
@jayballer73 no one was predicting a win, if they claim so, I'm mailing them my BS stamp. I liked our odds of not getting beat by 20+ and figured this team had a spine. I thought we'd blow it late but I'd be happy with my winnings and the improvement. I pulled the same card against TT for the big title in basketball a few years back. The more I talk about us playing poorly when I have money on the line, the better it goes lol.
@kjayhawks - keep it up! KU could win out! 🙏🏻
Best win since ... ?
And I am so happy we got rid of that God awful oversized Jayhawk on one side of the helmets.
@kjayhawks when will I be getting that?
Crimsonorblue22 said:

Lol - -no I am eating THIS CROW all by myself - - oh ye of little faith lol
Heard them say on game day today - - -KU'S -win against another P-5 School , being a 21 point under dog - -with us winning - that's was the largest win in history.
Hopefully more wins to come - -We might just be on the verge of finally getting this thing headed back up- - - it's been a long time guys & gals - let's hope this is the beginning.
This HUGE win here against BC - -just makes the CC that much more baffling/mysterious - -How could we look soooo bad against CC on your home field - -and then not only pretty much dominate BC - -But just totally take over on THEIR home field - - it was so sweet to see their fans walking out midway through the 3rd quarter - then mass exodus later. - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
@Crimsonorblue22 I see nowhere where you predicted a 24 point ku win or even a win at all going thru your post 😁.
@kjayhawks I was positive from the beginning! Ask @nuleafjhawk
@Crimsonorblue22 you are always the positive voice and we love you for it! No arguments on that.
KSU looking good against Mississippi State up 17-7 late second quarter. Would be a few solid wins for the conference this week.

K-State looks pretty solid
Does anyone still think that six wins is undoable? Who was it that said they would buy ice cold beer? I'm starting to feel very thirsty.
@Texas-Hawk-10 were you shocked how well he played? I guess u kinda answered that in your other post.

@Marco Losing to Coastal Carolina probably cost us a chance to Bowl this season. Love to be wrong and after beating BC, maybe gives this team enough momentum and confidence to pick off a few BIG12 teams this year.
AGREE , Think if we can win 4-5 games - you got to feel like been a good start this year.
I feel we have a good shot at WV , - - Tech - and I know people will laugh , BUT I still think we have a shot at K-State - -we win those 3 there is our 5. - -I know K-State looks pretty solid , but just feel like that we might just be able to get it done , got them here is a plus - -just got to get the fans in the stands to help support the guys .
We need to show our backing for the games, the guys notice that whether some think so or not - this team is going to get this done - -w got some pieces in place - fan support is another piece - -I think 4-5 wins is within range for this year - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
