The problem with 97.1 is that when you try to stream they are playing music, and not the game

 

It seems like there were technical issues, and good ole UNT doesn't have people who can fix them.

I've been periodically checking in on my computer and the game isn't on desktop/digital/whatever.

Thought it was just me! I appreciate the commentary on the thread so I can keep up with the game. 

On ESPN under the college scores if you follow the game their Gamecast does a good job showing the plays

I like to sync our radio broadcast with the TV. Last week the Varsity Network was ahead of the TV feed and would not let you pause and resume the game where you left it. Every time you unpaused it, it would return to live.

So the Varsity call was always about 10 seconds ahead of what was happening on the TV.
 

I had to turn it off, which is sad because I am a BIG fan of our radio broadcasters.

I couldn’t find the pre-game on Varsity. The Eagle doesn’t stream the game, just music. I tried Sirius 386 but I had an issue where the app doesn’t know I have 386. I went to the car and it was playing there. So some weirdness was definitely happening. 

 

I skipped the whole deal and went with the broadcast.

A station's over-the-air and internet-stream broadcasts are not guaranteed to be mirrors of each other.  This has been the case for a few years now, IIRC.

I think it is something to do with the Varsity Network contracts.

Yeah, but you can sync them together if both broadcasts allow you to pause and restart them where you want. 
Last week, the Varsity app was way ahead of ESPN+ and you couldn’t pause Varsity. 
I miss the days when you could stream KNTU. Never had a problem with that.

I was finally able to find it on the Sirius app but it took quite a while. I believe it also ended up being at 396 on the app of course we were the one station where instead of showing the North Texas symbol like it did on other schools it just had a football helmet

I am not sure you are talking about the same thing I was.  I was referring to the same radio station's presence on-air and on internet: they aren't always the same.  KNTU is a great example: they used to have the game via Internet while their 88.1 FM presence - at the exact same time - was music/programming.

So, if we're talking about pre-game on the Eagle, make sure we are all on the same page regarding which Eagle broadcast we are referring to.

      UTSA/Memphis game

      Tech spiraled out of control so fast it's hard to pinpoint what exactly could have done better lol... against Memphis, there were just poor coaching decisions coupled with poor execution on those poor decisions. It sucks to look back on because not only do we practically give teams the ball in scoring position but we also blatantly leave points on the field. Memphis comes to mind with the 4th down attempt from our 41 (who does that in 2nd quarter) and the 4th down attempt from their 29 in the 3rd. That's a 10 point swing right there off coaching decisions assuming we make the field goal and the defense gets a stop. Those may seem like tall tasks but that 42 yard Memphis TD was their last score until 33 seconds left in the 3rd and our kicker hasn't missed since the Tech game.

      Goal Post Alert

      In all seriousness, I watched South Carolina roar the field after taking down A&M tonight, and thought, “This is what our fanbase needs.” SMU had apparently not beaten a ranked team at home in like 60 years or something crazy like that! Meanwhile we are poised to beat our second undefeated top 20 ranked team in a span of a few years and when this happens it needs to be celebrated! Who says cool sports things don’t happen in Denton, freaking Texas! Goal posts come down, get marched out and get tossed into the pond or placed on the hill like a trophy! 🏆 how instagrammable! Photos for the Maniacs, Talons and Infantry to use to recruit 2025 members and beyond. I’m all about derailing Army’s quest for the playoffs, because even if Boise loses they ain’t jumping 8 spots and keeping out their Heisman stud running back. Plus we need this win. It’s time to crush another undefeated dream. Most importantly we need a W. For those who think this puts too much pressure on the team to deliver a W against a stout team with a rested quarterback. It’s top level football. There are no guarantees but we all need to be prepared. Talons Up! GMG
