YouCastr Faceoff

Two of the most popular live college sports teams on YouCastr, Eastern Michigan University and Oakland University, faced off this past week in hockey, with their respective YouCastr online broadcasts going head-to-head in the same time slot as well. It was quite enjoyable to follow. Both ACHA conference teams have been on YouCastr through the duration of their seasons, with more college sports games seemingly on the horizon.

It's schools just like these which reap the benefits of YouCastr the most. Many friends and family of the hockey programs at Eastern Michigan and Oakland have joined YouCastr to checkout the games when they can't make it live. It's really easy so anyone can hop on and do live broadcasting of the games, but at the same time, it's equally simple to effortlessly sign up for an account and follow the online streaming live. We've seen many fans of these school joining the site. Although the fans are not as numerous as some of the larger, more mainstrem DI programs, the fan-bases are equally, if not more passionate. It's good to see they have a place to follow the teams they care about the most.
