No hot dogs?

Hope my subscription to flobikes let's me view this.

Any relation to Flo from Progressive?

Flosports? And it'll cost $30 to watch the game? Embarrassing!

Between the 4 peacock games, the Iowa State game on ESPN+ and this Georgia debacle, this will be the least available the MU games will be in 15+ years. I'll make it happen, but it's annoying AF.

This is life in 2024. It's not just MU, it's everyone.  NFL Christmas is paywall'd. We embarrass ourselves as MU Grads when we act like our athletic department is failing us.  They are working within the market given to them. You want the Big East to get more TV money? Better expect streaming.   That's life.

When the going gets tough, the tough get going, aina?

I get that streaming is just part of the deal these days. I don't have a problem with that. But I think its ridiculous that they schedule a high major game at a neutral site outside of those contracts. And I'm not paying $30 for that nonsense.

Oh well, I will just watch college football instead.

Is it life? Sure. Doesn't mean it's not annoying and stupid. There is no reason for a high major neutral court game to me on Flo frickin sports for a $30 one time stream. I can deal with Peacock and ESPN+, but I don't have to like it. I pay through the nose for a cable package to get FS1, FS2 and CBSSN. The games should be on those channels as they historically have.

Can't even go to a bar to watch the MU vs. Georgia game.

Really?  WTF?

I'd be pretty surprised if many bars subscribed to Flo Sports. It's an awful streaming service.

If everyone on Scoop throws in a couple bucks, I'm sure we could send a student to the game to set up a private Scoop Feed for us.

Why are you surprised by this haha

The game is only on Flo sports

I'd bet a kidney no zero bars naturally have that service.

Maybe some bars around Milwaukee will pony up strictly for the game. But that's it

Marquette chose this game on this date instead of playing in a traditional MTE, it wasn't forced on them.  I think everyone agrees streaming is apart of the media landscape in 2024 and I think reasonable people would agree that the Athletic Department does a good enough job. But that's not why people are annoyed.  It's that Marquette chose to play a neutral court game in the Bahamas up against both college football AND established MTEs instead of just playing in a MTE themselves. Of course they weren't going to get a decent media deal given the competition they are up against.

Little over a week out from our game with Purdue. Tough turn around for a leg injury requiring more testing.

May have 1 Purude 7 foot to not have to deal with.

They do have a 2nd one tho. Plus TKR who is a load

So no one is going to Atlantis from scoop??

Just saw where PURDUE's FR 7'4" center got tangled up with Keeyan Itijere and injured his leg. Just had surgery and apparently will be out for the season.

Why's everyone upset about flosports? Anyone who truly cares about MU would have subscribed to support our other sports teams.

It's expensive but 3 months a year to watch the WVB and other teams when they're good plus Connaught rugby is worth it.

Almost all of MU volleyball's matches worth watching (see: most of their non-conference matches and their 2 Creighton matches) are streamed by something much better than Flo Sports or on FS1.  The Flo Sports streaming, at least for volleyball, is a horrible product.

George Mason pasting Stony Brook at half

Has anyone heard about which holiday tournaments Marquette will play in next couple of seasons?

They usually announce them all at one go for the next three year, but the vegas tournament threw a wrentch into things.

Not surprising. I thought GMU looked like a pretty good team.
