I'm finding a path to watch this game and its a pain in the ass. I'm laying this out to figure out what works and what doesnt.

No particular order.

Radio
Cowboy Radio Network (thats from gowyo.com, not sure why it isn't Cowboy Sports Radio Network.....)
List of stations: https://gowyo.com/sports/2016/6/30/_131 ... 26317.aspx

TV
Longhorn Network.

YouTube TV: No

Hulu TV: No

FuboTv: No (someone suggested I sign up, couldn't find it, found this tidbit https://thestreamable.com/channels/longhorn-network - which I doubt the accuracy.) EDIT: See below - maybe a Free trial of Fubu + ESPN App could work.

ESPN App: Need a cable tv provider carrying LHN to authenticate you have access. No. EDIT: See below - there might be a free hack by COS Cowboy viewtopic.php?p=273481#p273481. Not sure if it works, but it could be a cost effective way to view the game.

Comcast + ESPN App: bladerunner reports this configuration works.

streameast.app: Zapoke & Laxwyo report it is available here. Not sure if this works or not (never used them and I decided to go with Sling before it was posted)

Sportsurge.net: Reported by jbone. Streams are a crapshoot, and the ads can be obnoxious. It's an option, though.
Fubo TV & ESPN App: If you have Fubo, Cos Cowboy reports that you can select FuboTV as your provider in the ESPN app

SlingTV: Promotion - everything is discounted first month. $20 base price plus $11 to add the sports package that includes LHN. Looking elsewhere. ($31 to watch a game seems ridiculous) MAKE SURE IT IS ORANGE + SPORTS otherwise you'll have to contact support so you don't end up paying like $90 for this game.

Other than that, I'm guessing the big cable co's such as Spectrum/Comcast/etc probably have it as an addon. I have had great luck with YouTube TV for sports the last few years. While I'm no fan of google, I like them better than the incumbent cable monopolies.

Hope this helps!

It appears that you might be able to watch on the ESPN app. Longhorn network is a partnership with ESPN. But it may be that your cable provider has to carry Longhorn for it to work

TLDR; ESPN app only works if you have a cable tv provider that has LHN.


Let me look. They get tricky with that old school "stream live, but select your tv provider" bs that has mostly been obsoleted for the last few years. I'll update when I find out. Nope - need a supported provider https://support.espn.com/hc/en-us/artic ... -ESPN-app-

Sling TV is the front runner at the moment. I'll see if I feel like burning $31 to watch the game or not. If anyone else finds something, let me know.

I guess $31 is probably cheaper than two tickets at home, and certainly cheaper than 2 tickets + travel. My hangup is probably a few pennies make it back to Wyoming.

Thanks for the detailed opening post, and finding the same things as you. Looks like Sling TV with a cost of $31 for this one game or radio appear to be the only options from what I can find.

Make sure to do the Orange + Sports. Blue + sports will not contain LHN. Not sure what I misclicked along the way but I was pissed off for a bit. I haven't found any cheaper options, or any other online streaming options. I'm sure there will be a pirate stream up somewhere. I just didn't want to bet the house on that.

Not on Fubo, but you can go to the ESPN app and use Fubo as your TV provider.

If you're a comcast subscriber, you can stream for free on the ESPN app.

I have it on Direct TV streaming. You have to do a preview account and then sign up for the extra sports program to get the Longhorn Network.
