I haven't used ESPN+ since the PSU game. So the stream is not the same as what is on tv? Is it the radio or tv guys announcing?
For reasons unbeknownst to anyone, MSU does not use the SWX feed for the ESPN+ feed. Instead they do their own production which is quite frankly atrocious.

Thought we had a film school?

They need to rethink that decision.

I wouldn't be surprised if what you're seeing is the film school. MSU is a great school but they're film students still learning the craft, not professionals.

SWX is very protective of their viewing area, and ESPN+ goes everywhere unless there are Root-style blackouts which are no fun at all. I’m pleased, as was previously stated, that the Big Sky/Learfield/MSU and SWX have at least agreed to co-productions but Learfield needs to up their game.

The problem with the commercials on ESPN+ is that SWX is the primary telecast and they have the syncing privileges with the officiating crew. I’ve watched them many times at Bobcat stadium holding up a hand (sometimes in a bright orange glove) to let the referee know they can start the play.

I don't think the SWX games on Pluto were a different feed?

I think they were different. They used MSU cameras and voiceover from the radio broadcast.

This link to Zach Mackey’s LinkedIn page might help clear up the announcer situation. He is contracted to what is now called Learfield IMG College.

In our off-seasons he does University of Iowa baseball.

The trip makes the video but I can definitely see why Vigen got on him afterwards. He actually had to go on the field to take the kid out. I'm disappointed in the kid as well. All he did was take his shirt off. :thumbdown:


Eastwood, did not make it. Ball out! Recovered, by Montana State!! The Bobcats hold!!! The Bobcats hold!!!

Surely a lessening of quality compared to the streakers of the 1900s.

Eh, I appreciate the effort. Had he been bare naked in this era, he’d be convicted of indecent exposure and have to register as a sex offender for life. As it is, he likely gets nothing in charges unless the DA wants to go for misdemeanor trespassing.

Sadly, you are right.

Exactly, to be fair, that wasn't a streaker, just a kid in gym shorts out for a jog!

I think streaking is hilarious, I don’t know why more people don’t see the fun in it. It’s really not that big a deal. Isn’t it a criminal charge in most places? That, and it really does take a lot of courage. Especially if you’re a guy and if you go full monty there’s a chance you could get your dick torn right off.

He wasn't streaking, he was running on the field. If you have the balls to go on the field show them off! \:D/

What was the deal with the kid in Zootown that did it a few years ago, seem to think he got into some pretty hot water - but that may have been due to something he did downtown after the game?


Great time to be a BOBCAT!

It was the opening weekend of hunting season so that might have had something to do with it?
