Where is our game?
- Thread starter bbncal02
- Start date
Basically the entire 1st Quarter over by the time their asses could be bothered and put it on a channel that was free all along.
anyone notice the image quality looks like Jaws 3-D in standard def for some reason?
I thought it was blurry but I was getting worried it was just me.
it was for the louisville guy saying his youtube wasn't working, lol
To say we miss CRod is a major understatement. I will reserve judgement on our O until CRod has a carry this season. Just one.
I think what happened is ESPN News is a channel they dedicate to showing games when other games on their other channels go over. But they couldn't move the UK game to ESPN News because they had to move over another football game to that channel since multiple games went over. Where they messed up was not starting it on the app at the right time.
OR they could just realize that with college football, like college basketball, there is simply not enough time in between games to where games going over isn't a regular occurrence.
If you are ESPN, this cannot happen. You have to start the game on the app. Especially when the channel on TV specifically said the game was starting on the app smh.
That's the only way this works tho. People don't like 9pm college basketball games. They worry about the 7pm going over (it normally does). But then what do you do? You delay the tip even moreso? Some people already think 9pm is too late to begin with.
I think throwing it on the app is fine at 9pm. They just cannot have mess ups like this.

ESPN app says it hasn't started yet, I'm about to lose my patience.
Nope. There was no game on ESPN News at the time that had run over. We were all over it here in this thread. The fact is they realized they needed to put the game on ESPN News and failed to do so in a timely manner. They do this every weekend in College Football and numerous days throughout the College Basketball season. As they said in the postgame show, a $50 billion corporation. It's an ESPN fail, plain and simple.
In 2022, this should not be happening. Most definitely zero excuse to have never loaded the stream on the ESPN app in the event they were showing a game already on ESPN News in which they weren't. They did not fail to put Texas A&M & Arkansas on ESPNU when the game before went over on ESPN. There are literally only 2 channels they have to worry about a game running over in, ESPN & ESPN 2 and 2 options to air a game when it goes over between ESPNU & ESPN News. They dropped the ball not even loading the stream. I don't care if it was an ugly game, doesn't matter who we play. Missing an entire quarter is inexcusable.

ESPN owes Kentucky fans an apology for last night's broadcast
ESPN told viewers that the start of the Kentucky vs. Northern Illinois game was streaming on the ESPN app, but it was nowhere to be found.
