FCS Games on the Web

I know this question has been asked, but I believe the answer has changed multiple times. For the past few seasons you could go on the channelsurfing.com website and watch games. I know the FCC killed that site - then it went with an .eu site & again stopped.

What site(s) other than espn3.com are out there now to watch live football games this season - please help!!!

Most of the Big Sky games are available here: http://www.bigskyconf.com/sports/2009/8 ... 1509.aspx?
They say all of the games are on there? I haven't used it as I'm usually either at a game or watching a game on regular tv.

Big Sky TV only shows games that are hosted by a Big Sky school. It can be a non-conference game so long as the Big Sky team is hosting. The quality of the feed is pretty craptacular...or has been the last couple of years, at least.

If the game is televised (like all of the cats or griz) is it the regular tv feed?

I heard that last year it was much better than years previous.

Yes, but without commercials.

There are a LOT of live games streamed on b2tv.com. Big Sky TV is now affiliated with them, so any game in which the Big Sky holds the rights will air live. I think the Great West is also all on this site as well...

I'm not so sure about the eastern FCS conferences. If ESPN3 carries it, they take precendent over the conference rights and it will air there but not on b2tv.

The best part of B2/Big Sky TV, at least for the Big Sky games, is it has been FREE, at least for the last couple years. For free-99, can't complain too much about quality. And quality usually varies depending upon the host site. All in all, it was pretty good last year, particularly for BB season when all those games aren't televised elsewhere. Nice for FB when I'm not home or around a TV, but MSU has had the luxury of all its FB games being televised either on Maxmedia outlets or on Altitude.

Sorry for the ECB, but does a site (free) exist anymore where you can watch games on a national basis online??

Channelsurfing is still out there, the domain's changed again. You can get it at channelsurf.ws now. Additionally, ATDHE is still around at atdhe.fm or streamhunter.tv, and rojadirecta is at http://209.44.113.146/. I'm guessing they'll all have stuff when the season starts.
