Delaware plays @ Rider on Monday 7pm on ESPN + and faces us two days later.

Game on FloHoop via FloSports - same streaming platform that last spring CBI was on.

Looks like Colonial Athletic Association has a league wide deal to show all games on FloSports.

You can sign up with a prepaid Visa card or something with the exact amount of the minimum subscription on it. Then if the cancellation process is a pain, you don’t have to worry about being charged again.

what a bummer. I was looking forward to watching this big road game. I guess my ESPN+ subscription more than doubling over the years won't pay off this time.

That would probably work. I don't remember the details, but I had to do something similar after the fact. I think I asked the CC company to issue me a new card with a new number. Then when they couldn't charge me for the next month, they finally gave me access to their account cancellation department. Before that it was just a big run-around and being on hold for hours and never being able to talk with the cancellation department.

Snake in the grass game.

Delaware is good.

Road game.

Small gym.

4 days before Christmas.

Boals has to really get this team locked in and focused.

Barometer game for me.

This team has been good in the Convo and terrible out of it (only win the buzzer beater at YSU - though we obviously played well at UM). 5-0 home, 1-5 away.

Delaware is a decent team who will compete for their league championship.

Need to find a way to prove we can beat a solid middie on the road, because we'll need to be at least 500 on the road in the MAC.

we can nit pick all we want.. We "should have" come out with a victory @Belmont.. If the guys find their roles, nothing more , nothing less as they did vs. Stetson we will be competitive. I liked the player rotation. A win would help find an identity going into the next month before conference play

BOOM 💥 this guy knows how to play that game! Or use Apple Pay on their app and just un subscribe and your card can’t be used.

OCF - naturally curious as to why it was such a hassle? I went and read their cancellation policy and it sounds like a simple process (maybe it’s changed?). Sounds like you can sign up for the month, cancel, and you’ll only get billed for that month.

Regardless, I’m going to attempt one of these methods and hope there’s no headache involved.

The only time we've been favores on the road was at Detroit (by only 2) and that was probably our worst game. We also got smoked at Marshall & Florida as decent sized underdogs. The other 3 were good. Underdog win at YSU, inches from underdog win at Belmont, and nearly a shocker at Michigan.

It's possible that they changed their policy, but I'm skeptical. Do they now allow you to cancel online, or do you still have to call? That would be a major improvement. As I recall back then it sounded like it was easy to cancel after a month, but it actually wasn't. Back before we had ESPN+ I used to sign up for streaming services as different universities we were playing. Never had a problem canceling after a month if they didn't have an option to just buy one game. Flosports stands out as being the real stinker. I think using a pre-paid card is the ideal way to sign up with them.

As others have pointed out, this is a tough road game. Delaware can play. What’s interesting, is Delaware shoots the three worse than us (31.6% as a team, 34.5% highest among players), and its tallest player (who actually plays significant minutes) is 6’7, with the next tallest player being listed as a 6’6 guard.

Could present an opportunity for Dwight to have his way and hopefully a continuation of Gabe’s performance against Stetson.

I just checked, and on their website they now have instructions about how you can cancel online. It does look like they've cleaned up their act.
