I'm assuming here: https://reg.cstv.com/register/?school_code=btdn
But I'm waiting until the 3rd so I can use it to also watch Texas-Pan American game, which I don't think will be televised live (possibly on delay though).

This still asks for a cc# to charge $14.95/mo after the first "free" month. Just how many months am I committing to here to get a "free" month? I'd hate to find out I've paid for 3 months ($45) to watch a single exhibition game that I could watch a replay of for free 24 hours later.

According to Buckeye Battlecry.....

With the Buckeyes taking on the Walsh Cavaliers for an exhibition matchup this weekend (Sunday, November 6th, 2 PM) it is the perfect time to run the first Buckeye Basketball LiveBlog of the season!

But, you point out, the game is not on television? You?re correct, it?s on the BigTenNetwork.com ? behind a paywall no less. But you didn?t think I?d leave you hanging without a solution, did you?

If you go to The Big Ten Network ?Net Only? section (just click the link) and scroll to the middle of the page, you?ll see a ?Subscribe Now? button. But you don?t have to pay $15 to see the game! Just enter ?BTDN3FR33? in the coupon code box and you?ll be signed up for a free month of the BigTenNetwork online! Just remember to cancel before the end of the month if you don?t want to continue using the service.

Viola! Basketball LiveBlog here we come! They start 30 minutes before the game, so feel free to be late!

And the BTN Digital Feed is up and running! Let's go Bucks!

Starters:
Craft
Smith
Bufurd
Thomas
Sullinger

13-5 at Walsh TO before 16 min TO.

Smith with a nice dunk to go to 15-5.

Scott the first man up after the 16 min TO. Then Ravenel - he promtly is scored on but then gets the rebound on the offensive side. Scott picked up 2 quick fouls and Sibert enters. Yes, first exhibition game, but Scott/Craft pairing may need a few games to mesh.

Sam Thompson and Amir Williams in around the 12 min TO. Scott back in with them. 'Spoon is in to join Thompson, Williams, Scott and Sibert.

33-17 at under 8. It took a while for this young 5 to play together, but after a shaky start and giving up some point they have started to pull together and put up points on their own. Buford and Sullinger standing up on the bench telling the younger guys to step up.

48-28 at half. The only guy I didn't see in there is Trey McDonald. OSU could be up 40 points but Matta is understandabley playing many different combinations of players.

Scott struggled in the first half. Jitters?

I liked Ravenel and Smith a lot in the first half.

I would agree.. jitters. For those not watching there were a couple of turnovers and his shots didn't fall. Matta clearly likes him (and for good reason) as he was the first sub in.

One thing I'd like to see in the 2nd half if Sullinger with either Ravenel or Willliams.

Just saw a great spin move from Thompson.
