Big Sky Conference - Pluto TV

Post by kalm »

This seems pretty cool. We now have our own 24/7 network. :thumb:
Eastern Washington University athletic events will be aired on Pluto TV for the 2017-18 season, the Big Sky Conference announced Monday (July 17). Events will be available via an app for phones and tablets, as well as via http://PlutoTV.com.

Pluto TV is the leading free Internet television service in America. As a part of the deal, Big Sky Conference will air all of its live streamed sports events on Pluto TV for free including up to 700 football, men's and women's basketball, volleyball and selected soccer, softball and track and field events.

With Pluto TV, the Big Sky Conference gets the benefit of Pluto TV's community of over 6 million monthly active users and becomes the first mid-major conference with a dedicated 24/7 channel where fans can watch from any Internet-connected device—mobile, tablet, desktop and connected TV. In addition to watching live conference events on Pluto TV, Big Sky fans will also be able to access on-demand archived events and exclusive video content on WatchBigSky.com, powered by Pluto TV.

The "leading" Internet TV service in America? Then why have I never heard of it?

This and getting a non-exclusive deal with Eleven Sports are great moves to get the BSC product out to the masses.

I think it's a bummer that they demoted Pluto from being a planet.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

I think it's called "watchbigskytv" now. But I still refer to it as "BigSkyTV".

So this site will be shitty just like every other one to watch BSC games online???? OH...unless the BSC team is playing up or down in division and then the stream will be crystal clear and synced (sp) up with the audio.

The Eversport broadcasts were pretty good. You should check them out.

This looks promising, they have an android app and a roku channel as well. If they show the blood rug, it may burn out my tv set again though. :poke:

It depends on who broadcasts the event. Some schools do a damn good job (NAU, UND), others really suck (ISU, CP). Everyone else is in between.

Since you brought it up... What's Sacramento State's plan to get the students & city of Sacramento invested into Sac St. football games man?

I was watching EWU/UNI earlier today for a little bit. It's available through Amazon fire TV stuff too so it's all gonna be fairly readily available for your TV it looks like.

I don't even know what this means... :lol:

I remember watching the conference semifinal one year against the Griz where Larry had the BSTV call and the Montana fans were commenting how unbiased he was.

Larry Weir is like Dorothy Mantouth!

I mean I remember watching a Griz game against NAU where he was doing the PBP and it was like Rush Limbaugh had gotten into sports broadcasting.

No it's not. We upgraded to HD cameras about 3 years ago. Nice try though, maybe you should go back on sabbatical. :coffee:
