This is also ridiculously expensive ($30 a month) unless you bundle it with Disney’s other streaming services (and then it’s just $30 a month for all of it — which is still ridiculous but slightly less worse?$

Depending on your cable provider (if you have one), ESPN Unlimited is included. Just need to activate it.

VT is now #70 in Net an a quad one opportunity for us.

Unless something has changed, if you have a cable package with ACC Network, you should be able to authenticate with that cable provider to stream ACC Network Extra even if you don't have ESPN+ or ESPN Unlimited.

Correct. But if you have a cable package w/ ESPN channels there's a very good chance you get ESPN Unlimited included within that, I know that's the case for Verizon Fios. Meaning you no longer need to pay separately for ESPN+, Unlimited includes everything that you normally get with ESPN+ (and more).

ESPN doesn't make this super clear, which is scammy on their part as I know a bunch of people who are/were unnecessarily still paying for ESPN+.

On the ESPN+ app they have it on the cue as seen below. When you see this it means you can 100% see the game if you have an account

Most traditional cable companies do not have ESPN Unlimited (yet).

It looks like the current list is Hulu + Live TV, DIRECTV, Fubo TV, Spectrum TV, Verizon FiOS and U-verse

I wonder if Lawal will be back for VT? He was out against SC today.

He was in a walking boot.

 

[psyclone]

He was in a walking boot.

...and moving with a very distinct limp.
Tweeder's post on p.1 says that there are reports that he'll be out 4-6 wks.

 

[thebiasedannouncer]

No Lawal is big. Hansberry is actually pretty good on the offensive glass, but Lawal is by far and away their best defensive rebounder and best overall rebounder. Will need to take advantage on the glass. They do not really have a true four behind him, so the defensive matchups will be interesting.

 

[BraddockBeach]

may have to say screw it and go take the trip up to VT for this!

 

[TweederGMU]

Does VT have a pretty decent crowd at the games? I'd expect at least the student section to be pretty packed for this. Going to be a real test in this one on the road!

Yes, students are very loud and engaged during the entire game. Call them the Cassell Guard and sit behind the hoop. They also have corps of cadets that have their own section in the stadium.

This feels like a must win since vcu beat them pretty handily but in reality it's a nice quad 1 game currently. It likely falls to a quad 2 as they slide in ACC play. While it would be nice to win it,it also wouldn't ruin their season either. Feel like Tony is due for a quad 1 win but either way at this point just play well and get the most out of the game as they can! They may be fighting the middle of the pack ACC for one of the last 4 in and this win would go a long way in that quest.

 

[Stoolguy]

Trying to get a gauge of just how many away fans we will have!! Right now thinking anywhere from 50-100 students how many of you all are going??

Still waiting for tickets from the ticket office. 3 days away and still crickets.

 

[GunstonsGhost]

With Belmont, Louisville, and Indiana losing tonight I think we're down to 17 undefeated teams left.

If you are on their list, you should be good. There was a women's home game tonight, so now that that's over, I expect we'll hear from them.

SMU loses too - down to 16.

 

[Sport31]

We are up to #41 net. Winthrop moves up to a quad 2 win.

I think Winthrop ends up being a better win than thought at first. They battled Arkansas and really could/should have won that game if they score one basket in the last 2 minutes. What i'm waiting to see is how we respond to a complete defensive team.... Don't think we've really seen one yet...... If we can do that, i'm confident we can hang with just about anyone outside the top 10.

 

[MasonSAE4]

I think this one is gonna be tough. Going from whatever the hell that style is that Cornell plays to a team that is really patient and takes care of the ball is gonna be whiplash. Would love a win, but would gladly take a strong showing where we tighten up the fundamentals.
