You can follow along on Twitter at @ZacharyMWeiss Any of you tech guru's out there know if you can stream the game if you don't get the FS channels through your cable providers?

Any of you tech guru's out there know if you can stream the game if you don't get the FS channels through your cable providers? I have Armstrong Cable and they don't have it. By the way, Merry XMas to all you guys!! You can but it's not necessary legal. Fox Sports go has the streaming link but if you can't use that through your cable provider, there's no other legal way around it. thanks Yak, I'm screwed and I can't even pick it up on 1320 WJAS. thanks Yak, I'm screwed and I can't even pick it up on 1320 WJAS.

The defense has been super, except for trying to contain the SF center. We need more double-teaming there. So far, the Dukes are continuing their upward trend in solid fundamental team basketball. Like Pistol Pete, my cable provider doesn't include Fox Sports and I can't access WJAS, so I've been listening to the USF radio broadcast. The announcers have been really impressed by Duquesne's aggressive defensive style and marveled at the number of shots the Dukes have blocked this season. Taylor, Brown, and Robinson all have 4 fouls. 12 minutes to go. Ohhhh boy. Taylor, Brown, and Robinson all have 4 fouls. 12 minutes to go. Ohhhh boy. Definitely worrisome. Lewis has a hot hand. Maybe the Dukes can open up a decent lead down the stretch... Mike Lewis is on fire! Collapsing 12-0 run by USF.

No idea what the officials were doing at the end of the game — inexplicably putting two-tenths of a second on the clock and then giving the Dons the ball — but the Dukes withstand the furious 12-0 USF run. Another fantastic finish for the surging Iron Dukes! Last edited by IronDukes12 (12/22/2017 10:36 pm) Only concern: negative assist to TO ratio. A heart stopper, for sure. I thought we were supposed to lose our next 4 games.

If you can't pick up Ray Goss and Jarrett Durham on WJAS, here's the link to the USF radio broadcast. By the way, the Dukes are up 12-9 with 8:22 remaining in the first half. The Dukes are playing solid man-to-man defense and applying some decent pressure on the Dons.
