When I looked at the playoff schedule I see that Hardin Simmons is not going to video stream, is this true?

I think they will--don't read too much into that---sometimes they get added later or you just need to go to the school's website.

FWIW they had video stream for last year's round 1 game.  I assume they will this time around, too.

I've seen HSU football stream a few times....each outting seems to be a different crew with different skill levels.  Better hope their "video A team" shows up if we get one at all.

That's actually a terrible idea. Scheduling anyone outside of division III is a complete waste of money. Unless you can convince Oregon or Oregon St to give you hundreds of thousands of dollars to travel and get whooped. At least that would be a net positive on the budget.

(509),
1.  We have been told that playing any non-Div. III game is not counted at all.    Many, many Div. III teams regularly play others outside of Div. III.   
1.  Playing a Top team in Div. III and losing, especially badly, hurts  Linfield or any NWC team.   
2. For a fan, playing a local NAIA or Div. II team is good because we can drive to the game.   Most of us can not afford one trip to Texas let alone two, or maybe three!   
3.   Yes, we  could play a mediocre or weak Div. III team.    But, how does that help us?

When we start beating UWW, Oshkosh, St. Johns or St Thomas, our status will improve.   Until then, I hope we do not schedule the elite teams in any regular season non-conference game.

Whitworth is dropping a crap load of money into their football facility.

Isn't that precious? Well then, let's put their football coach on the ncaa football playoff selection committee.

It's time for DOC to donate his millions made in public education to the CATDOME improvement project---phase 1---replacing the dome.

Still gonna make Linfield walk from the fieldhouse...

Facilities will be real nice. Too bad the grass playing field will be gone

Serious question RAT--is grass still preferred to turf or have the modern turfs become better than or equal to the real stuff as far as orthopedic surgeons are concerned?

I went on their website and don't see any video stream only live stats. Can anyone confirm the video stream?

[Jack Parkman]

The video stream will be there, it probably hasn't been put up yet.  I have tried to watch HSU a few times and the feed would always freeze on me.  Maybe it's my computer or service but that is the only feed I have had freeze on me.

We will have a video steam. HD with veteran announcers. Just waiting on the Turner(NCAA) people to give the approval of rights.
