Twice this season I've tried to stream the radio broadcast instead of instead of listening to the streaming TV announcers (Rhode Island and and tonight). Both times Tunein app indicated "stream interrupted". Tonight going direct to WXTQ site said "not streaming in your geographic area". Are the streaming services blacking out the streaming audio? Does this also mean I have to endure idiots like tonight on FB?

Is there no longer a link to the Russ & RobC audio from the OhioBobcats schedule page (a.k.a. the StretchInternet portal)?

I had the same experience. I like the WXTQ stream because for whatever reason
the volume and sound quality is better than on the one on the University website. On OU's site I have to crank the volume nearly all the way up just to hear anything.

The Facebook feed was awful and I gave up on it after about five minutes.

I had no problems with Stadium's stream through Facebook, and thought it was of high quality and reliable with little to no data dropouts and no stream breakage the entire game.

The affiliates on the Bobcat network must block their internet stream during games. The games are available vie Stretch Internet or the Ohio Bobcats TuneIn radio station. I provide these links in the first post of the game thread every week - Radio: Ohio Radio or TuneIn Radio

Adding to that - folks, check out Tune In on your phones. For me, it's a must have app. I use it several times a weekend late summer all the way through the NCAA tournament. It provides free audio for dozens of college football games every weekend, and basketball games literally every night during college basketball season.

You can also get some Premier League and MLS games on it every week during those seasons.
