on TV this weekend? Next weekend, it's LSU's turn. Have to subscribe to ESPN + / SEC Network + to view. No more SEC Alt channel for games. You have to pay a monthly fee. You can also dish out like $67 for a yearly subscription. Looks like basketball is going to be this way, too.

Won’t be watching any of those games. Kind of like the old Tigervision games against crap opponents.

The new deal we signed allows ESPN to put 1 OOC football game and 2 OOC basketball games on ESPN+ each year. Teams also get to dictate what time they play if they're on ESPN+. I've had ESPN+ for awhile now due to their golf coverage, but if that's too steep a price for a football game, I'm pretty sure you could sign up for a free trial and then cancel after the game

Gotta be painful to pay for a loss.

Hi boomer.

Huge step backwards. I thought that part of the purpose of the SEC Network (and the associated alternate channels) was to not have games be televised through pay-per-view.
Between SEC/ESPN+, Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, Paramount+, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, etc. it is becoming nearly as expensive to stream anything you want as it was to have cable in the first place.

I will never pay to watch this team.

Hell, during early season basketball, they make some games streaming-only while the SECN Alternate channels are readily available. Which would be fine if the stream itself didnt suck. Gotta love intentionally making your product worse and less accessible. And now theyre gonna charge you for it

So do I still pay even though I've already subscribed to ESPN+.......

If you have the SEC Network through your provider you don't need an additional ESPN+ subscription.

Already have a subscription so I could watch baseball games so whatever

Yeah, they severely over estimated that market. That $7 will go to Bojangles before ESPN+. But mostly because there are plenty of ways to watch it for free.

Why on EARTH would ANYONE pay that when all the free sports streams exist LMFAO.
That would be noobish AF.

If they would just sell online subscriptions to SEC network they could turn me into a customer.

Get a fire stick. They have apps made by companies and individuals that allow you to watch anything you want for nothing.
Posted on 8/31/21 at 5:56 pm to HerbEaverstinks
Nah...I get it with YTTV.

I remember trying to get Auburn conference games on a spotty AM channel so I won’t complain about this
I like how that sounds like I’m 80 years old and lived in Iowa in the 40s when it was in the late 90s and in metro Atlanta
