It's starting to look like the women's title game. EWU leads Montana 31-11 with 4:48 to go in the half.

Is Pluto really that unreliable? I use WatchBigSky and almost never have any problems.

It’s much better now. When it freezes just channel up or down and then back.

Better than it was. I watch some of the old TV shows and movies on it as well as the conference games. Its usually fine for 2-3 hours, then it starts to freeze up.

:nod:

Pluto has been solid for me. Occasional freeze to buffer but other than that it's been pretty smooth. Been watching on either laptop or fire stick.

MSU-SUU game has probably been the best game of the tournament. Watched most of the EWU destruction of UM. I don't have access to ESPNU so no title game for me. Looks like EWU has a comfortable margin at the moment.

Eastern wins by 10. It wasn't all that interesting of a game to watch, honestly. It lacked that Joe Cravens magic. :nod:

Cravens is a good listen. I hope he is part of the 5 year extension in Boise.

Congrats EWU.

MUS's size played well against SUU, was thinking it would be a good watch against the Groves brothers of EWU.
