Here's my hunch as to why:
Our game is set to be shown via the BTN Alternate 1 (overflow) channel on YouTube TV. This is only an actual, live "channel" on YTTV when there is overflow content currently airing.
So, as of right now, that "channel" is unavailable. It should be good to go tomorrow at gametime. If not, the aforementioned Fox Sports App should work

Does that overflow channel automatically pop up? Because i have it marked "on" for my guide but it;s not showing on my guideHere's my hunch as to why:

Has anyone confirmed that the alternative channel will pop up for YouTube?
Yes, that's how it works. It only actually shows in the Live Guide if there's something airing. Should just pop up at or near gametime.
Good question. My youtube tv guide does not currently show the overflows even though I have them marked to show.
How low do you expect the weather to go? Or you implying that Northwestern will "go Down" today???
I am remembering the last day of the 1990 season. In order to go to the Rose Bowl, we needed to beat Northwestern (we did), and we needed Minnesota to beat Iowa (they did), and we needed the Michigan - Ohio State game to end in a tie. And it almost happened, but Michigan kicked a FG as time expired to win by 3. So instead of Pasadena we went to Tampa and got smoked by Clemson 30-0.
And I recall the final day of the 1989 season, when we smoked the Mildcats in Evanston 63-14, and then proceeded to the Citrus Bowl on New Year's Day where we beat #16 Virginia 31-21, finishing 10-2.
In a couple hours my sobriety will be descending rapidly.
Yes we did get smoked by Clemson on New Year's Day 1991 in Tampa Stadium. The weather was gorgeous in Tampa that day and the Illini were depressingly outclassed. Darrick Brownlow lost his cool in the 3rd quarter and got ejected along with a Clemson player. That a$$ kicking felt almost as bad as the drubbing the Illini took at the hands of Rick Neuheisel & the UCLA Bruins in the Rose Bowl just 6 years earlier. I was at that debacle, as well.
my worst case scenario would be both us and Purdue losing..in that case Iowa would be back to back division champs. PUKE
I remember that game well, too. My future bride & I were in Las Vegas for the first time. I stayed up all night to make sure I didn't miss watching the game on the giant TV in the Mirage Hotel sports book since it came on relatively early in the morning in Vegas. Jeff George, Howard Griffith, Mike Bellamy, Steven Williams & Co. finally snapped a 26 year Illini bowl victory draught. There were a decent number of Illini fans watching the game that morning in the sports book and we had a great time. Was a little hung over at kickoff but overcame that and a little more as the game wore on in our favor!!And I recall the final day of the 1989 season, when we smoked the Mildcats in Evanston 63-14, and then proceeded to the Citrus Bowl on New Year's Day where we beat #16 Virginia 31-21, finishing 10-2.
Let's focus on the happy memories. I sense we're going to from many new ones in the coming seasons under BB.
My husband and I were at that game in Tampa, too. That’s where we first were taught the cheer ‘Go, Fight, Win’ by the Illini band and cheerleaders at the pep rally before the game. They said we’d only use it in game situations when the Illini were losing. We ended up hearing it A LOT. We sat pretty high up in the stands where it was 110 degrees, and the sun was beating down on us the entire game. As I watched our Illini get beat down, I kept drinking 20 ounce beers and never had to use the restroom. The Illini were SO slow, and Clemson was SO FAST. We also went to the Rose Bowl drubbings of New Year’s 1984 and 2008. Don’t worry, IL Loyalty, we have vowed to never attend another Illini bowl game so the Illini should win the next one. Beat the Kitties, and get to a good one.
