That's crap I can watch Troy state or Rhode Island but not Auburn!


For most games, yes, but this is one of the few AU games on ESPN+. Probably only going to be cupcake games.

The easiest way to know is to go to the game entry in the ESPN App. This one says SECN+ / ESPN+. I’m able to watch it with only ESPN+. If I had a TV service with SEC Network I’d be able to use that instead. If it said ESPN or SECN it’d be available on the actual channels instead of just the apps.

Me too. I was streaming the game on my phone with the ESPN app. I found the game on the app, launched it and selected the version with SECN+. Then I logged in using my YouTube TV login

Then I went to ESPN.com on my computer. Clicked on watch, found the game, launched it and logged in again using my YouTube TV login. Watching it on my computer screen now

I tried casting my phone screen to my 75" TV. It was casting the game to my TV but the video was blacked out. I could hear the game and see the game stats, but the video was blacked out.

So between watching on my phone or computer, viewing on my large computer monitor is much better and my speakers are much better on my computer as well.

Lol. My TV must have parental controls turned on or something as it doesn't have this game!

Seriously, you can't watch SECN+ directly on a TV using YouTube TV as the provider. You have to watch SECN+ via ESPN on your phone or computer.

Not true. I do not have ESPN+

Went to the ESPN app on my TV. There were two different options. ESPN+ or SECN+. You choose SECN+ and login with your YTTV login

You can’t do it through the YTTV app though

My tv has the espn+ app on it. I also have xfinity sports package with Auburn as one of my favorites. So if Auburn is playing, I can just click on them and it will launch whatever app/channel/voo doo it needs to show me the game


Old man style


Just put it on Auburn and mash the button

Game is on

That's pretty awesome. My TV had the ESPN app and I was able to get the game following Weagle25's instructions. It was a little clunky for me. I had to activate a code for ESPN and then activate another code for YouTubeTV.

It's all good now. Much better watching this on my TV. I appreciate your and Weagle25's help

I initially thought you were joking when you said you mashed the enter button.. Made me laugh but you were telling the truth!

Not sure I helped.

I have had a few TV/cable/satalite companies in the past. Xfinity is the shite. So glad we have it now. I dont even have to actually mash the button. Can just use the voice control

Damn, that's slick. The only improvement would be just think about turning the game on, and it turns on. Some folks would get in trouble though if what you wanted to watch just suddenly started playing.

Is there a full game replay yet?

I was busy scouting A&M yesterday since I refuse to buy another subscription for that kind of game.

I use YouTubeTV which has the SEC Network but not SECN+. I had to use the ESPN app on my phone, and later switched to the ESPN app on my TV. In both cases I was able to view the game in the ESPN app by selecting SECN+ as the source and then signing in with my YouTubeTV service login.

I think on YouTubeTV, on the regular SEC Network channel there is a full game replay on this Wednesday. I have my YouTube TV set to record any Auburn football games to my on demand library.

I assume other TV subscription services that include the SEC Network would likely have the full game replay soon.
