So, I have this "friend" who wants to watch the Harvard game online.  I came across something called CBS XXL, which appears to be their online college sports service, and lo-and-behold, the Cornell/Harvard game is on the schedule.

The only option seems to be to subscribe for a month for $15, but they do seem to have a fair number of college hockey games available, so I'd probably get my $15 worth.

Has anyone used this service before?  Is it any good?  Anyone know of other options for watching the Love Story?

If I recall correctly, it's really the same all access service we used to put up with. When a Cornell game was on CSTV, they blacked it out from "all-access" and demanded another $15 as a PPV charge for the game. It may be different but that's what this sounds like.

"Friend," eh?  How long until this degenerates into a series of bad puns?

I could start with a pun about a double minor for boarding and hooking, but I'm above that.

There's a pay per view option too ($7.95): http://www.cbssports.com/cbscollegesports/affiliates/ppv/#Hockey
