ESPN can't broadcast every game, they have contracts with other conferences and don't have enough free slots for every SEC game. Because of that they sold 8 games to CSS and 7 games to FSN South. 1 or 2 games might be shown on ESPN Classic. Each team can have up to 1 PPV game, that fills out the remaining SEC games.

All of the above games will also be on ESPN GamePlan / ESPN360.

Thanks...to both of you. I'm just trying to decide whether to keep GamePlan. If only one LSU game is going to be on there (the primary reason I have it) I may not.
