If anyone has an answer for the following question, I'd appreciate your posting it. I don't subscribe to the YouTube channel, but it is one of my free ROKU channels. That just means I can view the usual trash videos, and the sometimes interesting docu-shorts like the recent one about the WWII carrier USS Entreprise. OK, now about last night.

I was wading through said trash videos to see if anything was worth watching. I came across GA-OSU game where the box said LIVE. I clicked it, yep. I watched the first quarter live and the start of the second quarter. Suddenly, a screen popped up and said Video Not Available. That was that, but I did notice later on before falling asleep, a box saying something akin to: Ga-OSU Peach Bowl, first half full game. By that time, my eyes were heavy, so I just shut off the device and TV and went to sleep. Can anyone explain what happened that allowed a non-subscriber to view the entire first quarter?

Pretty similar to the US actually. Just replace the USA large media, banking, phone, utility and military complex monopoly corporations with Chinese government ownership and you have a match. The rest is free enterprise.

My guess (could be wrong) is that it was a bootleg upload and then someone figured that out and shut it down.

That's plausible. Thank you. Not related, but a few years ago, I was late night surfing Netflix. In reality, looking for a suitable cartoon to recommend to my daughter for her kids to watch. I was astonished to see the first Avengers movie as a selection, as it had just recently hit the theaters. I watched the entire movie. The next day, excited to show the movie to Shirley, who shares my superheroes interest, that movie was no longer there. SEARCH couldn't locate it, browsing for the next 1.5 hours was a futile endeavor. I don't know if this due to some glitch, a disgruntled employee, or sunspots, but I liked the movie.

You found an illegal stream and it probably got taken down. The games aren't supposed to be on regular YouTube. YouTube TV is an entirely separate app and different interface than regular YouTube.

Btw there is a lot of amazing content on YouTube.

You can watch most any college game on YouTube. Just search for the teams playing. If one gets shut down, find another. NFL is typically not as easy and seems to shut them down much quicker.
