SBU Football / Re: 2021 Season

Does anyone know how to watch the game?


I made a free trial with Fubo.tv. It lasts for a week, and it must be active for you to see the game, so don't cancel it until after the game. There are also "other" means of finding the game online if you know where to look.

I did that too, but couldn't find the game or the pac 12 networks...what was I missing?

Fordham’s Chase Edmonds is probably the best RB in the FCS so our defense is going to have to bring their A Game

I really hope that's sarcasm based upon the apparent typo of "2013"

anyone see the homecoming notice that says "new central location"?  what do we think that means?  i assume something like some of the pregame festivities are closer to the stadium.  i dunno.

I thought when I clicked on the BBQ for details I saw reference to the LaValle lot...wonder if they have it in the center of the lot with Seawolves Town (or at least the parking for it) right next door

ESPN+ subscription question...I have it, but generally have only watched games live. I expect to get home after the game tips and would prefer to watch the entire game...I know when its complete you can watch a replay, but does anyone know if I log on at 8 while the game is going on if I can start at the beginning or I have to watch live? I feel i tried this once before and got looped into the live game, instead of the start

Good question.  I'm guessing no, but you do have the ability to freeze the stream and resume during its broadcast, a la DVR functionality.  So, if somehow you can get someone in your household to start the stream at the beginning of the game, and then immediately pause it, you'd have the ability to do what you want to do.  Not sure if there are any timeouts after a period of time though.  This is all new this year, so please share with us after you find out.

Good suggestion, thanks, although I do not have anybody else in the household (and if I did, it may be tough to convince them to lock up one TV for SBU for 3-5 hours, depending on when I got home). In any event, I didn't get home that long after tip and decided to put it on and if I could start at the beginning I would, otherwise I wouldn't have missed too much. I didn't notice an option to start at the beginning (but didn't try too hard) and wound up joining in live

"Phantom extension" perfect.. That ghost contract that was extended to coach P for one more season from the interim AD, Donna W, was to expire in 2018. Google coach P ol contract. This school plays games and doesnt tell us the truth, all while keep raising our ticket and parking passes for football year after year. Keep blowing the easy games and get blown out by halfway decent teams, and they will lose a real valuable fan base. That is the local community..

Where did they raise our ticket prices? When they announced renewals for 2019 I actually looked back at my old invoices...absent tacking on a $10 handling charge that started a few years ago (and I am unsure of whether the school or an outside processing company pockets that $10), next year's season tix are the exact same price for the season as in 2013...oh, and we have 7 home games next year, in 2013 we had 5...so tickets actually got cheaper

Two ugly losses in a row . That 3rd quarter was disaster especially coach P  on TV pushing a lineman on the sidelines . Lets see what the excuses will be Monday . Just think  we got this guy 4 more years

Totally missed this. Wish it wasn't the only thing I missed from this game though. Pathetic performance.

I cant stand this man. Time to have a talk with the big boss about his contract extension.

I'm torn on this....I agree there are many games where I scratch my head at some of the game plans or in game calls, and I admit I have no inside information on what his players think of him...but at the college level, and especially the FCS level, recruiting (including attracting big name transfers) is almost as important as the X's and O's. I feel every year SBU puts a ton of talent on the field....even if we can legitimately say another coach would have executed better, or had a team more fired up to play, can we be sure that another coach would have been capable of putting the same caliber team on the field?

This is over. At this point I'd put all the seniors in the game and just try to have some fun out there. They're probably never going to play football again, so at least give them something today.

Likely over but our defense tends to make big plays...can't concede yet

Was Carbone benched? There may be hope yet.

Can't tell. Announcers not sure either.

I like Fields and if given the keys to the offense, could be good...but he is so different from Carbone and we haven't seen much from him yet passing wise that I do not like this switch mid game if not prompted by an injury. Carbone has had much worse games than today without a similar switch

Looks like an injury with Carbone on the sidelines in a baseball hat and no pads.

Yeah, announcers just made a vague reference to a Carbone injury

Just showed him on sideline...in uniform but looked like pads were off, so I guess an injury?

Carbone is out w/3:25 left in the 3rd.

Fields might give us a spark (and his play has not been game planned by the D)

I stepped away for a moment...is this a QB change or is Carbone hurt?

UNH QB knight single handedly beat JMU. If SB could find a QB with 50% of knight abilities, SB would be favored to win the CAA . We probably have the best defense in the CAA and quite possibly the best RB as well, it's just our QB issue is an ongoing thing year in and year out. Carbone didnt have a single scholarship offer from any FCS school. How does SB make him a 3 year starter?? I dont understand what is the problem here.

Singlehandedly? I guess 6 JMU turnovers, including 2 returned for TD's don't mean much

The beer garden in general was a good idea and I think it will add to the game experience for many fans.

The decision to have an awkward  separation within the garden between season ticket holders and individual ticket holders is a peculiar one and I'd suggest one unseparated beer garden w/picnic benches would make much more sense. Many times those with season tickets are accompanied to the game by those who have purchased individual tickets and vice versa. Plus it just looks strange (I was on both sides last week v Richmond). I realize they are still working out the kinks in what is otherwise a very good idea.

Its not season ticket holders vs. non-season ticket holders...one is the beer garden, the other is the touchdown club (which is additional to just being a season ticket holder)...I believe everything is free in the touchdown club, hence the separation...that is an idea though, that there should be some way to flow between the 2, but I am sure they'd want to ensure that the tables and games over there were left available for touchdown club members. The touchdown club also has better sightlines with the scoreboard not being right in front of them. However, I have no problem with those that join the touchdown club being treated better, as they should be.

Ahhh, that makes sense. I just popped up to the beer garden buy a beer at halftime and jumped to the wrong conclusion. Although more expensive, it was a lot quicker than a trip to the car...and I got to see the band.

I think the TD Club has free food too, so if you don't have the time to consistently set up a tailgate, its not a bad deal...I think $200 for the year (but thats only you, guests have to pay $50/game)...if I am right and food and drinks are free, thats not bad if you grab a bite and have a couple beers each game
