How do we get the B1G network?


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - BobK - 09-18-2024

On Comcast 403 which isn’t HD. Maybe espn+

FuboTV has it.


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - paloalto - 09-18-2024

I believe B1G Network (aka Big Ten Network) is majority owned by Fox Sports and minority owned by the conference.  I don't think ESPN+ would carry Fox sports?

B1G and B1G Alternate are on Sling Sports Extras

It surprised me that the announcer admitted she hadn't studied Stanford enough before last night and didn't know Tim Duncan was the father of a Stanford player (F Sidney Duncan), even when she saw him at the hotel.  That is on Sidney Duncan's bio on the roster.

Reviewing the video (should be posted by end of day today), the announcer did, in fact, mention Sidney.

Announcer: "You and I saw [Tim Duncan] at the hotel last night not realizing his daughter's a freshman on this club, 6'4" middle blocker, Sidney Duncan."   (when Stanford led 17-14 in the 2nd set)  As I said, they hadn't reviewed the team enough to know this as of the night before the match.


I felt the woman sitting next to Tim Duncan looked perhaps too young to have a 18-19yo daughter. It turns out that appears to be Vanessa Macias, labelled as his girlfriend in a 2020 article. Sidney's mother is Amy Sherrill. They divorced in 2013. Amy and Tim are parents of Sidney and Draven. Vanessa and Tim are parents of Quill.

On my Chromecast/Google TV, the Fox Sports app has the Big 10 network in HD.


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - paloalto - 09-18-2024

If you don't have access to the B1G network there are some other interesting choices today on ESPN.

Louisville at Kentucky 4:00 pm PT  and Texas at Baylor 6:00 pm PT.  The game being at Baylor they might have a slight chance of beating Texas.

I'm heading to a sports bar in Burlingame shortly.
I think they'll be amenable to putting on a VB match on relatively quiet Wednesday night; they've got lots of screens.
(Pretty sure I watched the Stanford/Nebraska match there a couple of years ago.)

Welp, I was wrong about that; they don't have BTN.
They did have the Louisville/UK match on a couple of screens.

ds's need to step up

Hambly must’ve fed them decaf before the game. It’s not just the defense so far. But they do seem to be coming alive.

And I thought it must’ve been cosmetic surgery. Turned out to be a trophy wife. Thanks for the update.


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - mbdude - 09-18-2024

no blocking and ds's are really struggling.
no comparison to Choboy


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - BobK - 09-18-2024

Up 17-24 set 2. The first set Nebraska had as good a back row ups I’ve ever seen.


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - Card10Fan - 09-18-2024

I thought we were gonna take set 2 and then fell apart. Was it 3 straight serving errors late in the set for us. Plus poor blocking late. Have to play much better on the road to win a top 5 matchup. Feels like we will be swept in this one.


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - mbdude - 09-18-2024

a beat down
stanford hit .062 in 3rd set

It's disappointing but I think the team can learn and grow from this.  Playing at Nebraska with all those fans is a brobdingnagian home court advantage and three of our hitters (Kurt, Harvey, Andrews) are very new to college volleyball.


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - M T - 09-19-2024

Stanford played like they just got into town.
Not only did they not play to their potential, but they folded in the 3rd set.
Folding like that is probably mental (at least I presume they're not THAT physically tired).

Certainly, Nebraska played very well, and, yes, they had a big crowd.
But Stanford wasn't the same team as three days and two time zones earlier.


RE: Stanford Women’s Volleyball 2024 - martyup - 09-19-2024

I don't think we looked bad, just that Nebraska looked very good.  I also watched the Pitt vs Penn St match and Pitt looked scary good.


76lsjumb - 76lsjumb - 09-19-2024

To me, it looked a lot like the match against Texas… with us playing the role of Texas. If you had told me before the season started that we would only have one loss at this point, I would have been quite happy.

To me, it looked like Cinderella lost her slipper, couldn't find it, the prince bailed out early, and she took an Uber home.
Fortunately there's a new fairy-tale-ball again on Sat and Cinderella got an invite.

A much more technical analysis than mine, but seems pretty accurate to me as well… :-)
