I wish this was on normal people tv or streaming!

NCAA Soccer has always required a few extra subscriptions for streaming for most games and only a small handful on regular TV. It is only getting worse throughout sports as providers try to make up all the lost revenue from people cutting the cord.

It sucks,  but bottom line at this point is either you pay several different providers to watch sports or don't watch. I wish it were different but that is bottom line now.

ESPN+ is a must Feb-May. So much college baseball on. 

It is on streaming. 

I think they mean a streaming service like youtubetv that is basically a cable provider. However, see my above post that this rarely happens with college soccer and increasingly happening everywhere.

ESPN+ is no different than YTTV in regards to difficulty to watch.. is my point. Both work on apps. 

It cost $10 to watch a game that was never televised before streaming. I think ESPN+ and BTN+ are great values.

I agree with you. I am just giving you what I think the poster meant with their original comment.

Hadn’t heard boo about this. May be forced to go check it out. Hermann’s supposed to be a really nice field and the game’s are like $10. Also might be able to track down Josh Schertz. Imagine he’ll be there doing that whole cross-sport program building thing.

Our Hoosiers getting outplayed pretty badly. Seems like par for the course in these early season affairs lately.

Not too impressed with our new guy #2. I think he’s played all half.

Curious to see if we can control the ball better or get any offense going in the second half.

SLU maintains a 1-0 lead at the half.  We've managed just a single shot; SLU had 5.  We have 0 corners; SLU has 5.  Patrick McDonald picked up a yellow card.
Very weak with the ball, almost zero control. Really would like to see some aggressive play. Now 2-0

This seems to be typical of IU in recent years to really struggle early in the fall and especially lay eggs on the road in big time atmosphere. In the last few years they have always figured it out about halfway through and ended up in the College Cup or close to it. 

The home opener against ND next week will tell us a lot as this is the best team Indiana will see all season. A good performance means this was nothing more than the annual early season road stinker Indiana always has recently. Another game like this at Armstrong (which has not happened at any point recently) and then some questions need to be asked if this is talented pieces that don't go together as happened in 2013.

St Louis locked down on D on the outside. We had no answer.  I don’t care for Elliott. Wish we still had Maher.  ODURO completely neutralized.  Sarver mostly neutralized. Lacked any and all cohesiveness and creativity on offense.  2 lapses on the goals against. Gonna need to see if our chemistry can be improved with a few changes.

I know. I watched the match:). Also Elliott and Maher play different positions. Elliott is taking Brett Bebej's spot on the wing since Bebej had his eligibility expire. Maher's spot was taken by freshman Jackson Lindamore who looked like a freshman tonight.
