Yes, it has baseball games. Most men's basketball games should be on regular BTN, ESPN, FOX or CBS channels. So even if you pay for BTN+, you still won't get them. But it's great if you want to watch women's basketball games, many of which will be on BTN+. You also get wrestling, softball, soccer, field hockey, volleyball, etc. I do monthly subscription and cancel after the season is over. Nothing goes on during the summer months. I actually subscribe to the $15 variety that covers all teams from the Big Ten so I can see how Iowa's opponents do.

Just an fyi for everyone....right now, 5 of Iowa's preconference games are on BTN Plus, covering November & December.

Start times & TV (or streaming), of course, are subject to change.


All of these are on BTN PLUS except Longwood (regular BTN TV).

I'll reply. I use it for baseball and will for those 4-5 BB games that appear to be on the BTN+...for those games I dont get to.. IF you only want to see the basketball...sign up after Nov 1...do the monthly (I do for Iowa only)...cancel after the last BTN+ game or you will continue to be charged monthly.

I thought the last time the monthly charge was like $10.00...but that was to see Iowa sports only.

For baseball, its great.
Some of the camera work is better at some schools than others...but for the $$ its ok.

Occasionally, the women's games are announcer-less. It is fairly common for Iowa women's basketball nonconference games. For those games they tend to use the video from the CHA scoreboard. This means that they are still showing replays of Iowa baskets while the ball is in play. With Iowa's defense, it is not unheard of for the other team to have scored (or Gabbie has intercepted the inbounds pass) by the time it returns to live action. On the flipside, get to see the Delta Dental smiles and the Hills Bank (?) freeze frame.
Once January starts, they tend to have a more professional product. I have hoped with interest in the team at all-time high (might be true), they will clean up a few things.
There was a fairly important soccer game at Wisconsin just last week without announcers.
The quality of the baseball broadcasts varies widely. Sometimes as good as a regular BTN game, and sometimes it feels as though watching it on a security camera.

I do the annual

I watch a lot of the baseball/ wrestling/and women's basketball ontop of the handful of men's basketball.

Then you also have some classic games you can view. Easily worth the extra cash.

If you are a (women's) ice hockey fan, BTN+ is now the exclusive streaming provider for all WCHA games. Three Big Ten teams are in WCHA, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Ohio State. The monthly $15 all conference pass gets all the games, as well as the $10 school passes for those three schools.


Penn State also has a varsity women's hockey team but it is in a different conference (CHA). No other Big Ten schools have varsity teams.

thanks, just deciding if I want to do the year sub or monthly....might just do it for one month and then wait for baseball. not really interested in other teams as i don't have time to watch others anyways.
 
Are all the football and basketball games available on a delayed basis (even those on cable)? I work during most games, and am only keeping Hulu live for Hawkeye football and basketball.

Going to get BTN+ for a couple months. Does the app record games on its own? EX- can I watch the Hawks Friday night around 10:00 (tipoff is 7:00)?
 
I went on bigtenplus and I don't see the basketball games listed. Is there a different schedule somewhere?
 
the next BTN+ game Kansas City for Nov 12th is not yet listed..it could be it hasn't been confirmed that it is for sure not to be on the BTN...we will just have to monitor it.

yes but the question is when not sure it is available immed after a game...the Iowa/Wisc football game is now available on BTN+ replay -- I just signed up so I dont know how long its been there...will see if the basketball exhib game gets replayed & when come friday..

I look at it this way...its $10.00 for the entire month of Nov and the same for december...so its not like its big $$$ thing.
 
To piggyback on this discussion...

Is there a way for me to watch BTN+ if I have a Youtube TV subscription without paying the BTN+ fee? I thought I did this in the past but can't remember how (and if I actually could).
 
If I decide I want to pay monthly, does it automatically renew after a month or do I need to manually unsubscribe? I’d probably go November/December then shut it down after Dec.
 
Layed up in bed after Achilles surgery..... I watched 2011 Iowa at Wisconsin and 2005 Iowa vs Kentucky in Gaurdians Games in KC today.

I hear Rondo has big hands 😉

yes it will auto renew until you login ,.go to your account and cancel. yes I shut it down after the last BB game...however I may take a look at the women's schedule to see if they might have some BTN+ games after the men's.

Appreciate it man
 
I signed up for Iowa only, by the month today but didn't save their password and I can't figure out how to get help to correct this with my own password. The charge went through.
Does anyone know how to call a phone number to get customer service? I did send a email for help but haven't received any response. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
 
in BTN+ there is a full game replay of last years' game with North Carolina...nice little start-up prior to the start of the upcoming season

Thanks Bob. I'm definitely in on BTN+. I don't like missing exhibitions let alone any regular season games. I'm not sure my live streaming service is worth the money, if I can get Iowa games after midnight, which is about the time I get home from work.

Are the BTN+ games live or delayed broadcast?
 
Thanks Bob! I have tried that site but I think I will send another message. Otherwise I guess I will cancel my subscription and try to re-sign up again.
 
Are the men’s and women’s exhibition games this week on Big10+. Currently they are not included on their schedule.

The Iowa women have BTN Plus games in Nov, Dec, Jan & Feb.

And yes, Nov 4, Truman State (exhibition), is on BTN Plus.

If you ever need a schedule for an Iowa sport, just google it. I googled Iowa womens basketball schedule to get this link:


 
The women’s exhibition this week is listed on the hawkeyesport.com as on BTN+. It is NOT, however, listed on the BTN website. I am guessing it will be on BTN+, but not a sure thing.
