At least the game reveal video is on YouTube regardless  |
This is my concern as well. I'm an avid Twitch user, but most web services will label it as "video games" and thus block it.

The last two years when I was the Kickoff coordinator for South Carolina, we got streaming information well in advance with opportunities to test it with a dummy video and make any needed adjustments with the IT staff (if only for the weekend).
I'm not a Kickoff coordinator this year, so I don't know when the email went out to coordinators. But this isn't their first time at the rodeo.

Not every team send their students to a kickoff location. Some just send a few representatives to pick up their kit of parts. While I was with 116, we always watched the kickoff together from our build site. Those teams now only have a few days to get Twitch unblocked by their school IT.
