With a larger-than-ever number of networks (TV and streaming) now showing college men's and women's basketball games more games are available... but sometimes tough (and $$$) to find. A good place to start is ESPN+ which is contracted to stream all Big Sky games. There will be a few ESPN+ pre-season road broadcasts. Consider this a "streaming-schedule-in-progress" since several games have not posted streaming schedules. Most notable non-streamed event is the women's LMU Thanksgiving Invitational where Montana team will face Wichita State and Cal. In the past I've found SLING-TV a good streaming source because it covers all Pac 12 and SEC games, and most Fox S1 and S2 games. Sling costs $40 per month, but is offering a 1/2 price first month subscription. Four western conferences, Mtn West, WCC, Big West and WAC have normally broadcast from their own network, sometimes at a single-game fee. Here's what I've confirmed so far:
1. -- ESPN+: Montana at Duquesne, Montana at Southern Mississippi, and MontanaWBB at Grand Canyon U.
2. -- WCC Network: Montana and Montana WBB at Gonzaga, both broadcast by the WCC Network. Last year it was free.
3. -- FOX FS2: Montana at Xavier on Fox FS2. Available on HULU. I believe it's also on SLING, with an upcharge (will confirm details when I know for certain).
4 -- Mtn. West Network: Montana at Air Force, broadcast on Altitude Sports and on the Mountain West Network. Montana WBB at Colorado. Last year, Mtn. West games were free.
5. -- Youtube Sports: Montana WBB at South Dakota. $$$ I think I'll miss this one.
6. -- Montana WBB at Washington State: Pac 12 Network, available on SLING TV.
7. -- LMU Thanksgiving Invitational: ???
8. -- The Montana at Prairie View and Montana at North Dakota State list only radio broadcast at this point.
9. -- ALL Montana and Montana WBB home games will be broadcast on ESPN+
I will update this when/if I find additional info.
