I can’t find it anywhere. Anyone know where I can watch the game on Sunday? Online or on TV.

Looks like this will be your best bet, though I do not think its free.

They also list it as being on AT&T Sportsnet, but thats a regional channel and is likely only available through sports packages on cable.

They showed the AT&T Sportsnet on the Rhody broadcast yesterday.

It's on Direct TV, but the channel is part of a sports package.

I do have ATT TV Now, formerly DirectTV Now. I could up my streaming package to include this, but I'm currently grandfathered into a nice little package that I don't want to change.
If there is a way to pay a one time fee by a different method, then I am up for that instead.

As of now, there is no TV announced for the WVU game. According to the WVU website, the game will be carried locally on Root sports/AT&T Sportsnet (a regional sports network that covers Pittsburgh and West Virginia). Is anyone closer to how these things work and in a position to say whether this game may be picked up somewhere for URI fans, even online, since it is already being produced by the WVU-associated network? Perhaps Yurview would pick it up locally? The Patriots do not play that afternoon (they are on SNF). It would be a shame to not have this game on TV on a day that many sports fans will be sitting around avoiding the cold outside and looking for something to watch, and it would be ridiculous for URI fans to not be able to see one of the biggest games of the season in the year 2019 - especially those of us who are paying for ESPN+ which has a relationship with both the A10 and the B12.

Insane that this isn’t at least streaming for URI fans.

Something will come up. Insane with the A10 deal with NBC, CBS and ESPN that this game isn't being picked up yet.

Just checked bill. It’s $8.39 per month on my bill but my DIRECTV bill has 400 lines and seems to be $1,200 per month. No wonder I can’t afford my mortgage.

Underneath the one that says "audio only" is the one with video:

It's usually only blacked out inside of WV. And it is free to view. If that doesn't work for you, I've had to resort to desperate measures in the past:

The home team and its conference control the tv rights for home games. This game is at WVU. It falls under the control of the Mountaineers and Big12. The A-10 and its tv partners do not have final say.

I'm honestly confused about why this is causing such an uproar. What do you think other fans say when they check their games at URI and see its on "Yurview"? This is no different, its on the home teams regional network. We're actually lucky that their regional network is one that some can get in sports packages.

Agree Adam.
At worst, isn’t a local Sports Bar almost always the back up plan? Make sure in advance that the Bar can get the satellite channel you want. I’d be
Shocked if the West Virginia game cannot be seen one way or another.

I think all the home games that air on Yurview are also available on ESPN+ out of market. I think part of the consternation here is that the Big 12 has a relationship with ESPN+ so all they’d have to do is simulcast it (exactly like they do with Yurview).

True, but it looks like West Virginia has its own separate streaming thing going on, so they likely hang on to those streaming rights so people use their product instead of ESPN+. Additionally, with the TV portion being on AT&T Sportsnet/ROOT, they aren't about to let ESPN simulcast their TV broadcast online. With Yurview I imagine its a little different since they arent as much of a direct competitor with ESPN. I say all this with the giant disclaimer that I haven't taken the time to look up the Big12 tv contracts or anything, but its an educated guess.
