Three weeks in a row on Peacock!

No problem for me as I get Peacock! Tomorrow I will buy enough beer for the next 2 games, and my new Lazy Boy could not be functioning better!

This pee-cock thing is a conspiracy.

My nephew is a U of O grad still living in Eugene where he works as an architect. He regularly attends games and will be attending the NU game. Very nice campus. The sports infrastructure is amazing esp due to contributions by Nike/Phil Knjght.
Eugene is a cute college town surrounded by rural agriculture. In the past I’ve driven the coast and have spent vacations along the Columbia River, Mt. Hood and the Long Beach, WA peninsula. Love the local seafood esp. the local white New England clam chowder and the local berries/pies. The Tillamook cheese factory is a favorite stop.

Are all the Peacock games also on NBCSN? Peacock is the absolute worst (mainstream) sports streaming app. There is no in-game recording concept. In other words, you can't start watching from the beginning while a game is in progress without jumping through ridiculous hoops. You can't easily tap through commercials in known increments like the 15 seconds in YouTube TV. It's super rare that I want to sit through 2.5 hours of non-game action to watch 60 minutes of game action. But Peacock almost mandates it. I always thought it's just ineptitude in customer-centric product development, but now I wonder if it's an effort to increase ad viewing. I'm paying for the goddam service. Let me skip the ads in peace.

OTOH, P-Cock is great for watching after the game is over. They cut out all the commercials. I stay off the web during the game and just watch the replay without commercials and halftime. Problem solved.

How quickly after the game are replays usually available?

Why are you telling everyone how lovely the Oregon Coast is? Want to spoil it for us?

Don't listen, everyone! It's cold and wet and rainy and desolate. Stay away!

Cough up the money for Peacock . You will get access to overflow NU games and the 6 Nations Rugby in Feb-APRIL and summer internationals

The vast majority of Peacock broadcasts are simulcast on NBCSN. Sometimes you'll have multiple games on Peacock at the same time (like BTN) and so NBCSN will only simulcast one of them, but that usually only happens in non-conference season.

Moe's chowder to be precise.

Still yet further streaming pirates. How did NU, with its huge fan base, ever catch their attention? The millions of NU fans just won't miss this one, either, hopefully ransom-free. Convenient start time.

WestCoast - next time you're in Tillamook, consider driving 10 miles north to Bay City and try my nephew's restaurant, "The Bay City Kitchen". Call ahead. He does chowder, but not your style, has already suffered for it, the rest is worth the drive, to say the least.

OR coast is a great drive. Look out for the elk at CA border. No problem finding weed stores every few miles. Some folks vacation there to watch the storms.

Do not agree. I watched the MSU game on Peacock and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was no different than watching the game on the Big Ten Network. When they take commercial breaks, like every other network does, I get myself another beer.
Big plays, such as touchdowns or long gains, are shown 2 or 3 times. What the hell else do you want?

Doesn't it just seem wrong to have New England Clam Chowder on the West cost?

Not sure. That is likely a local area thing, (local areas where that game has some interest) That said, I think NBCSN used to be on Direct but when it was resurrected, Direct has yet to pick it up. And since most of the bars, ect. get their feed from Direct TV makes it hard to find any place that has the game

Buffalo Wild Wings here In Northwestern Pa has access to Peacock. However, Spectrum here dropped NBCSN, which really doesn't matter to me because I subscribe to Peacock which is fine.

Maybe so but it delicious. Always preferred white over red chowder. White with bacon bits with a dash of Tabasco hits the spot. The cheese and sandwiches at the Tillamook cheese factory and tour were things I enjoyed. The historic lodge on Mt. Hood also had great food and amazing views. Breweries along both sides of the Columbia River were fun spots and also had wonderful views. Always enjoyed the local seafood esp. salmon on cedar plank.

I can remember one of the first times that I ran into it. It was an away game was slated to Peacock. BB game I think about 3 years ago. So I signed up for a year for $20, There was another game or so, Did not mind that but did not really have much other use for it, Now that subscription is $130. Thought I might be able to get it for $80 but it turns out that subscription specifically excludes both sports and movies, So now it is either $13 per month or $130 for a year for something I have no other use for, One thing to sign up for a month but even then you have to remember to cancel and with away BB games in Jan and Feb (NOV and DEC ones are at home so don't need them) But that has you at about 5 months.

Not to mention the full season of EPL

I got pulled into a work call at the end of the Michigan State game. It is not immediate, as I tried to watch the end after getting off my call, but this past week, it was within an hour of when the game finished.

You watch football like my mom does. She sits down for 3-4 hours. I like to watch the game action. If interesting action happens, I like to rewind and rewatch the play and maybe even hear the commentary before and after. I expect great controls for this, and I'm reasonably happy with what DirecTV offers. My way lets me increase my seat time for cycling. (Now, if I want to do a 2-4 hour indoor ride, I am happy to watch in real time but still resent the commercials.)

 

[wildcatcoaster]

Hey I'm just happy we play at Oregon at 2:30 and not the middle of the night like some of the last few Oregon games...

I watch football like the vast majority of people do. Peacock shows interesting plays 2 or 3 times, like most of the major channels do, including the Big Ten Network so there's no need to rewatch the play on your own. If you actually go to the games, generally you get the commercial breaks without the commercials. You really need to educate yourself a bit about tv football watching.

Yeah except the clam chowder at Ivar's in Seattle is the best I have ever had and I lived just north of Boston for 10 years.
The Ivar's at Costco isn't as good as the restaurants FYI. Though to bad.
