You’re frustrated.
All you want to do is watch your favorite team, the Yellow Jackets, on game day but you heard the only way to watch them is on ESPN3.com.
You have “heard” some negative feedback but not sure where or when you heard it. Isn’t that channel that ESPN360 website or something?
Well, we want to ease your issues with this channel and help you watch all of the Yellow Jacket games this season.
ESPN3.com is an online destination for fans to watch live games throughout the season. You can even watch it on your (or your child’s) XBOX. If you live out of the Georgia Tech/ACC market, it will be a great way to make sure you do not miss a game. The channel will not only expand the reach of our football and men’s basketball programs, it will provide exposure for some of our other sports as well.
For Saturday’s game against Kansas, not only can fans watch the game live on their local ACC Regional Cable Network (http://www.theacc.com/live/2011-acc-football-match-center-kansas-at-georgia-tech.html), fans outside the ACC footprint will be able to watch the game online.
Below are some technical requirements to watch ESPN3.com on your home computer. Just use it as a checklist and know that at the end of the tunnel is a Yellow Jacket game to watch.
If you are on the ESPN3.com site, you will come across these system requirements to make sure you are able to stream events:
