How to watch MBB vs. NE on Christmas?
The MBB game is not listed on tv and BTN+ is cryptic with regard to live steaming available vs. replay only. Is there anyone that has experience that can clue me in? BTN+ is more confusing to me than Twitter.
I’m asking because if it is available live I’ll probably subscribe to watch with my NE Brother in law

I have been using the reddit ncaa streams on my laptop and have had success with every michigan bball game this season. I don't have cable or any other access to TV channels, but this has been a sure bet for me

100% Co-sign on this. Google “ncaa basketball streams Reddit” and it’ll be clear which one to click on. In the comments on that post you will find the various streamers with links to the streams. I have ublock origin or whatever so i haven’t dealt with ads, I’d recommend getting that or Adblock plus because these sites are very much 100% ad based on revenue and they reflect that. A couple years in and I haven’t gotten a virus or anything from any of the sites, they have to be somewhat vetted to appear on the Reddit page. The streams will be a bit further behind time-wise than anything official and certainly won’t be ultra HD 4K etc. etc., but they generally work. If it doesn’t, just choose a different one from the Reddit page.

If your internet connection is good enough, you can get HD with some of the Reddit streams. Probably because of location, ours will go from looking like Franz is about to step right out of the screen then drop all the way down to the old Classic NBA Jam.

The game is on regular BTN, according to both the Michigan and the Nebraska websites.

Yep, just checked my guide on DTV and the game is listed in the 3pm PST slot, very cool!
I'll have that game to watch before grilling steaks on Christmas Night!

Crackstreams has worked for me for ncaa and nfl games so far. Haven’t tried it for MBB...but worth a shot?

damn they are making the boys play on Christmas, then NYE, both away games.
edit: also use https://www.reddit.com/r/ncaaBBallStreams/ - a thread for the game will be created shortly before the game starts.

I thought that was weird to. Effective way of keeping them socially distanced tho.

What a stupid scheduling move - no games for like 12 days and then a 5PM game on X-mas day when the NBA is on? And you know, celebrating the holiday? What the hell? If I was a player or coach I'd be pissed (sorry, I just wanted to complain about that!)

It's normal to take a December break for exams but the Christmas game, I don't understand at all.

Appears to be on regular BTN

BTN is good

OK...upvoted for the avatar and one of the coolest Xmas presents an 8 year old ever opened. The run pass switch made the game. The extra blocker cheat was mind blowing as a kid.
Coleco!
..and yes the game will be on BTN.

I remember the good ole days when Michigan v. Nebraska on Christmas would've meant an Aloha Bowl between two programs who had disappointing 8-win seasons.
December 18th, 2020 at 3:23 PM ^
More like Alamo Bowl...Pitch the ball, Tyler Eckert!

Why did the Big Ten schedule a game for Christmas Day? They want to make sure players stay on campus?

Livers commented last week about playing on Christmas day. The team as a whole is not happy about it.

On the couch.
With a cheeseball.
And bourbon barrel aged something.
