It’s possible it might show up on NBC Sports Extra, that’s the NBC Sports Network overflow channel.

Some CFB and I think MBB games can show up on NBCSN or NBCSN extra but not all of them.

Google is saying RU NW should show up on NBCSN Extra (main NBCSN is showing EPL) but when I go to my YouTube TV guide I don’t see it listed there on the overflow channel yet….so not sure about the accuracy of google.

What’s with the angst toward Peacock lol
Extra stupid service you buy for 1 or 2 games, then useless. Particularly annoying if you only buy live TV package for cfb ...and still get stuck without the right channel.

Last year, it was good for Olympics and Super Bowl, not so much this time.

If RU was having a "hopeful" year, I'd bite, but f it this year.

We have hope, at least in SoCal

Yea I saw that on my guide too when I search for Rutgers football but when I go to the overflow channels NBC Sports Extra (there are two of them) one is showing EPlL at that time and the other says sign off…so I’m not sure what’s accurate. I’ll just have to see when the time comes.

Google and ChatGPT are also saying it’s streaming on YouTube for free but that seems strange and I’m not sure about the accuracy of that either.

This is the middle of 3 straight Northwestern games on Peacock. Last week at Michigan State, this week vs Rutgers, then next week at Oregon. Apparently Peacocks love Northwestern.

Last week it was also on NBCSN not even the overflow channel because I had the game in one of the quad boxes part of the afternoon.

Thise week I’m not sure if it will be on the overflow or not though.

you guys want Rutgers on better tv options; get rid of coach and win more and tell everyone you know to put them on tv (even if not watching)

we drew 110k vs MD.......we're lucky peacock didn't put fall ball on instead

We have Peacock, but not the right level of Peacock, so no sports.

I just checked upcoming YouTube live.

Rutgers vs Northwestern Football is listed for 11:30am.

Guess we're a YouTube watching couple today.

I have NBCSN on my tv. Lots of times they have the Big Ten games that are on Peacock. But I'm seeing conflicting reports as to whether this game is on NBCSN or not

I mentioned that above but I’m wondering why put it on free on YouTube. So I won’t believe it until it’s actually on at that time. I have it bookmarked to check.

It won't show up here on the board but it'll take you to the link on YouTube.

I got it now on my YouTube TV guide. There are like 7-8 NBCSN Extra overflow channels but my custom guide was only showing two of them. I went in to my account online to see and edit the custom guide (sometimes channels are hidden) and there were about 4-5 more NBCSN Extra channels that were hidden. I unhid them and then went back to the TV and refreshed the live guide and it shows up now one of the overflow channels as upcoming.

So Google Chat GPT seem accurate for that on YouTube tv. Hopefully it shows on YoutTube as well for the ones who don't have access to that.

It shows up in the YouTube tv app as an upcoming game so hopefully I can catch some of it, although I’m in PA today so it’s always a little bit of mystery what will be blocked in this market.

B10 College Countdown is showing up now on this YouTube link posted so I"m guessing the game should show up as well. So if you can't get it on your tv, this channel is another option.
