There's a report going around that the Purdue (USA) games may not be streamed since they'll be shown later on tape delay.

I don't know if this is accurate, but when I go to the Livestream feed I don't see the game listed as an upcoming event.

We'll see...
 
From the press release:

CBS Sports Network has announced that they will air all of the games mentioned above on a tape-delay basis, typically about 30 hours after the completion of the original contest.

Argentina – 1 p.m. ET (Aug. 21)
Czech Republic – 1 p.m. ET (Aug. 24)
Romania – 1 p.m. ET (Aug. 25)
Estonia – 1 p.m. ET (Aug. 26
Quarterfinals – 1 p.m. ET (Aug. 28)
Semifinals – 1:30 p.m. ET (Aug. 29)
Finals (USA Pending) – 1 p.m. ET (Aug. 30)

The only contest not available to view will be the United Arab Emirates game on Aug. 21. Follow Purdue Basketball on Twitter (@BoilerBall) for frequent updates from that contest.

My Spectrum (admittedly, known best for their total absence of customer service) Guide is showing regular programming for those time slots. Should I set the DVR and hope CBSSN pre-empts what Spectrum "thinks" its showing in those time slots?

Are we sure CBSSN is really doing the time delay broadcasts so many hours after? It's almost like its really the old-fashioned 1980 TAPE-delay where after the game ends, an employee would hop a commercial flight back to NYC with luggage full of tapes to be edited and broadcast later (and they'd need about 30 hrs to do that from Taipei).
 
Purdue Basketball posted on Twitter a couple of links to watch the game in streaming.

Sorry for posting the same thing in two different threads, just wanted everybody to know it.
