longtimefan.... The ESPN app on the LG TV is awful... I have the same app and also have Roku plugged in.... TONS of issues with the app but the Roku has been flawless. I finally uninstalled the LG app

There it is. I'm with an LG C3 OLED with no streaming box currently. I'm off to find the Apple TV box. I'm currently doing the random hiccup thing during K-State and Texas so it's not just UC games. Back to the box I go.

I have 500mb Fioptics with the ESPN app on my LG G3 OLED. The stream was so bad yesterday I turned it off in the second half and listened on the radio. No problems last night when I watched a replay. Maybe just live events experience the problem.

Odd, but no issues here with same speeds. My son suggests you check if your receiving speed is same as sending, PS, I have no udea how to check that.

Maybe its the UC bounce ( ugly step child syndrome ) from the NCAA that we've become accustomed to over these years ( perceived or real ) continuing to be at work and it only acts up on bearcat games. I mean why is the best bball conference games televised on the lowest tier sports app anyway. lol.

I’ll try on my PS4 next time. Next year. Basketball on + is over, so I unsubscribe until next season.

Watching OU-TCU on the LG ESPN App, and today it’s perfect. Aaaaaaaggghhhh!

TCU up 37-23 late first Oklahoma. OU has plenty of time, but it seems that the Sooners aren't so good. Lucky for them, they pulled that game out versus UC one week ago and probably should still be in the field of 68 if they cannot complete the comeback today.

Final: BYU 87-73

UCF picked up the pace and made a game of it. Half: BYU 47-38.

Looks like it is a one possession game.

UPDATE: And then BYU goes on a 12-0 run...

Last word on streaming, we have the higher mbps rate (500 or 600) because my son is into gaming, so the speed of your data may be the only issue if the stream is coming in faster than you can receive it. Overall, we've been happy with the Hulu/Disney/ESPN bundle, Max, and Amazon Prime. I don't feel like we are missing any sports that I care to watch. If only I could get Le Tour without Peacock.

Bloodbath ongoing in KC: 14:04 - BYU 21, UCF 3. The Cougars hit 4 of their first 5 treys. Dawkins had to blow 2 TOs to try to stop the onslaught.

Kansas' projected starters:

KJ Adams Jr. - 6'7 junior averaging 12.1/4.5/3.1 (scored 11 versus UC)
Johnny Furphy - 6'9 freshman averaging 9.0/4.6/1.0 (scored 23 versus UC)
Dajuan Harris Jr. - 6'2 junior averaging 8.3/1.8/6.4 (scored 8 versus UC)
Nick Timberlake - 6'4 super senior averaging 4.6/1.7/0.5 (scored 0 versus UC)
Elmarko Jackson - 6'3 freshman averaging 4.1/1.1/1.7 (scored 2 versus UC)

Adams, Furphy, Harris and Jackson are all former 4-star recruits. Timberlake was one of the top available shooters in the portal this past spring but has not panned out - which means he is due, right?

This is a four guard lineup. Furphy is tall, but he is a guard (like DerMarr). So Adams plays the 5 in this lineup, but he does not have the size, rim protection, or rebounding ability of a typical 5. Small ball centers can pose matchup problems, but since Adams doesn't step out to shoot the three, it won't be a liability for us to have one of our bigs out there on him. I'd be surprised if they went with this lineup most of the game. I have a feeling we'll see at least 20 minutes of 6'10" 5th year transfer Parker Braun, who is a decent rim protector and can finish around the basket. The problem for Kansas is that Braun and Adams are their only frontcourt players. They have no depth with Dickinson out unless they give the walk on some minutes.

We cannot turn the ball over in this game. It's imperative to get shots up on the rim and give Aziz/Jamille a chance to grab the rebound. They should have a huge advantage on the glass.

I hope that UC does not make the mistake of thinking that because Kansas has two key people out that it has a type of advantage. Kansas is a very good shooting team. The way UC played defense yesterday, a very good high school team could have score 70 points on them. Also, this game is in Kansas City. You might as well call this a HOME GAME for Kansas because the blue and white (or whatever its colors) will dominate the stands tonight. Lastly, Bill Self is a HALL-OF-FAME coach. He is not one of the best coaches in the history of college basketball for no reason. We all know that it does not take much to outcoach Miller.

I hope that UC did not spend a lot of energy celebrating the WV win. They will need all of the energy that they can muster tonight. Go get them Cincinnati.

I would like to believe that UC hanging tough with Kansas but getting the L back in January would have them locked in.

Also, Kansas State plays the game before. I am not sure of the KSU/KU dynamic, but I would imagine that UC might have some purple-clad fans on its side in the night cap.
