The Niners host the Miners on Saturday. In 2019 the Niners overcame a big deficit to defeat UTEP in El Paso. The 2020 UTEP team is much improved already winning three games which is more than the past two seasons combined. UTEPâs three wins have came from two FCS teams and a FBS team (ULM). UTEP played well in a narrow loss in Ruston against a good LA Tech team.
Both teams are coming off open weeks due to COVID game cancellations on 10/17. The Niners are coming off a big road win against UNT and appear to be getting more guys back from injuries. Current line has the Niners as a 14.5 point favorite.
Hopefully this game gets played as this will be the first home game for the Niners. The current weather forecast calls for nice weather Saturday with a temperature high around 80 degrees.
Ok. Just subscribed to ESPN +. Tried to access it on my Samsung smart TV and itâs been a chore trying to find/get to any ESPN + broadcast links to test it out. Any advice on navigating this new territory to get it to work by noon Saturday? Assuming we get to play, of course.
âSubscribers can watch ESPN+ in the ESPN+ tab of the latest version of the ESPN App, on the web, iPhone, iPad, AppleTV (Generation 3 & 4), Android Handset, Roku, Chromecast, FireTV, XBOX One, Playstation 4, Oculus Go and Samsung connected TVs (Tizen).â
I personally stream the ESPN app through my PS4 with no issues. If anyone has AMEXâŚthey have/had an ESPN+ offer $20 off a yearly subscription ($49.99).
Generally you have to activate the app on the TV. You should get a code and then a message telling you to go to something like espn,com/activate to activate it.
I pull it up on my laptop and cast it to my TV using Chromecast. I have one of the new Chromecast Google TV devices ordered, and it looks like I will just use the ESPN+ app on it.
ESPN app isnât supported through Samsung Smart TVs. At least it wasnât 3 years ago when I bought mine. I have to stream the app through my Apple TV.
Me too, and waiting will give you longer coverage in case a later game is on ESPN+.
Favored at Duke? I wouldnât favor us but I think going into the game itâs the best shot weâve had against a P5.
UTEP worries me a little, theyâre better than last year (although thatâs not saying much). La Tech isnât as good as last year but they took them to the wire. Hope the game gets played and we can at least bring our B game to keep this momentum going.
I already have Hulu for free via spotify. Oddly it kinda prevents me from getting the bundle because if I ever cancel the bundle, I canât go back to the free option with spotify as that plan is no longer offered.
If youâre signed up for Hulu through Spotify or another promotion, you are not eligible for The Disney Bundle (unless explicitly permitted by the terms of your promotion or otherwise allowed by Hulu or Disney).
Fair warning if anyone else is signed up through Spotify like I am.
