Midlands TV update

[Impossible Is Nothing]

The BTN2Go website now shows that all mats and all sessions of the Midlands Tournament will be available on BTN Plus. I just checked with online support and the person I chatted with said, "Any BTN Plus subscription will give you access to the whole tournament", which means a school-specific package will work. It also appears that Flo will be providing wall-to-wall coverage, but I don't have Flo so can't provide much more information on that front.

So, it appears that finals will not be on regular BTN. The current TV guide for December 30 is showing four men's basketball games in a row from 1:00 - 9:00 CT.

This also would seem to mean that a regular BTN subscription with a cable/satellite provider will not give you access to Midlands coverage. You will need a BTN Plus subscription as well.

Good to know, Thanks.

Was this a change? If I'm not in attendance, I watch on BTN+ every year...we're they originally not planning on showing it?

In the past the finals have been live on BTN.

The Flo subscription gives (or at least has given) you everything BTN+ does, so Midlands should be available through Flo as well.

YES, I am very aware Flo carries everything BTN plus does. Flo is $30 month vs BTNplus $10/mo . The day before my monthly account was due to roll over, I tried to find out if BTN plus would carry it again. Flo already had it on their schedule. BTN did not. I did the live chat and even emailed BTN2go. Nobody could confirm at that point. I probably should have cancelled and waited, but I got a little lazy and figured even if BTN plus does carry it, for the extra $20 for the 30 day period I will get the Southern Scuffle and Reno, plus some other smaller HS tournaments and some Out of Conference College Duals. I will switch to BTN plus next month however.

My annual Flo subscription expires on the 29th (day 1 of Midlands). Does anyone know if I need to manually renew my subscription or will they automatically charge me and renew it for me? Hopefully it's auto renewed because I'll be pissed of I miss anything.

Sucks for us, and the sport, that it won't be on TV. Even tape delayed would be nice.

Will they be streaming midlands audio for free?

I’ve caught a couple of meets here in Oregon through Iheart.

It’s becoming more apparent that the motivation behind BTN’s agreement with Flo was to remove as much wrestling from the TV channel as possible. What a shame.

Typically no but the last broadcast I heard Grace say something about how they are streaming on iheart.

I can almost touch KXIC's tower from my house, so I might be wrong.

As meantioned, it is auto - caveat: if the date on your credit card on record is not expired. If it is expired, I believe your sub is cancelled.

Not sure it is true to say there’s less wrestling on TV than years prior. I think Flo was willing to pay the BTN for their wrestling package and that was a more motivating factor.
