Game Thread: Illinois vs Western Illinois

[Illinois13]

Was hoping to watch the game on BTN2GO but can't get signed in on the website. The game is not the primary game out here in Oregon but shouldn't I be able to see it on BTN2GO? When I try to sign in it asks for my Internet provider. Once I select my provider (Xfinity) it circles back to the asking me for my Internet provider. Not sure what is going on.

Just for clarity, I do subscribe to the Xfinity ports and Entertainment package which includes BTN.

Make sure you're using Google Chrome. When you click Xfinity you'll notice your pop-up blocker stops the secondary site from loading (this is up in the https bar). Either turn it off in the browser, or click to allow the pop-up. You should be logged in shortly thereafter.

Our WR1 tonight nearly transferred at the end of last year because he wasn't getting PT. That's not optimal.

That was it. I had not noticed the pop-up blocked message in the omnibox. Thanks very much!

BTN thinks that this is Lovie's 6th year at Illinois.

 

[TownieMatt]

Woof. Attendance looks meager.

anyone having issues getting to the game on BTN2Go? I click on the illini game and all i'm getting is IU/Virginia. Both the IU/Virginia and IL game showing the same thing.

Same. I also don't have any overflow channels available on Xfinity.

hover the mouse over 'btn tv' near the top of the page. then select games on btv - then choose the UI game.

 

[MoCoMdIllini]

That's an inauspicious start.

 

[JDHalfrack]

This defensive coverage leaves a lot to be desired....

 

[LFOD]

Well, here we go again

 

[TownieMatt]

This defense is all-time bad. Ohio State might put up triple digits on us.

 

[Illini_1979]

Ugh.

I got the UIUC game by selecting "Illinois" from the list of schools, then choosing the game.

 

[WeatherfordForMVP]

Oof...that was an ugly start. Just like last week. Fingers crossed, but hopes are not high.

 

[RoundBalcs]

We’re going to lose, aren’t we. All the pieces are there. Suspensions, injuries, a tiny crowd, a motivated quality FCS opponent ...

All the right ingredients...

 

[TeamWilliams]

This defense is all-time bad. Ohio State might put up triple digits on us.

But I thought our defense was our strength?

 

[Deleted member 592416]

Wow! No effort defense, they look sleepy!

 

[illini80]

That was shockingly bad defense.

 

[FeelYourPaign]

I've stopped cursing the btn availability and returned to a more common topic.

 

[mossimo142]

Is anyone else directv Btn feed constantly stuttering and freezing ?

 

[TheInsider]

We won't win a game after this week anyways. Might win this one but in the end it will only be temporary.
