Missouri State has a little concern about a sudden lack of defense

According to Missouri State's website, there is a live video feed for this:

Any chance this could get added to the BU TV All-access stream????

Bus trip available for this game?

I would love to go! Hoping as hope can for such an excursion amongst fellow fans... ... ...

[Da Coach]

No bus trip available. It's a 6 hour drive to Springfield, MO.
Even back in the days when Bradley sponsored a bunch of bus trips every year, I do not believe they ever had a trip as far as Springfield and back for fans.

Is that Missouri State site for viewing a premium site? I'm not sure I will be at home during the game anyway. I would really be interested in an archived game but I don't see any evidence of an archive site.

Looks like they use CBS Sports, not the Nuelion that we use, so probably no hope of seeing it on BTV All Access. You can pay $9.95 to watch it per the website. Don't see any evidence of archiving.

They do not have a pay per view option per game. The lowest cost option is the $9.95 per month option.

But they do have every event archived and viewable at any time once you register.

Also, beware- if you choose to pat $9.95 for the monthly option, note that "all monthly subscriptions automatically renew each month until cancelled, regardless of usage" (check the Billing Terms on the right side of the subscription page).

As I posted above- there are pirate video streaming sites that are scheduled to have the game. If anyone is interested, send me a PM.

With Nelligan's association at MSU I'm a little surprised this game didn't get worked out for TV

interesting comment during Dave Snell's pregame interview with their play-by-play guy...
that Missouri State is hopeful they will get a medical redshirt year for Marcus Marshall...

Marshall played in 12 games, PLUS he played in Jan. 11th game - their 16th of the year...so of the three requirements established by the NCAA...
... to be eligible for a medical redshirt - he fails on two of them.

Recall, the requirements are..
-season ending injury
-the season ending injury occurs in the 1st half of the season
-played in fewer than 30% of team's scheduled games (30)

but he played beyond the mid-point of the season and he played in more than 9 games.
