Having to stream all the games. I wish more were on regular tv. I live in the sticks and have huges net. The stream is terrible so I will not get to watch much.

You'd rather they be on Geaux Zone like they were before? I love it. Living out of state, I'd rather they be on SECN+ than CST.

No I'm fine with the games being on secn+. I juts wish more were on tv. I wish about half were on tv and the other half on stream. I feel like that'd not to much to ask for a premier baseball conference with a tv network with multiple potential channels.

It's also the adverse effect of having a rabid following for a minor sport. They know the same amount of people will watch at a much lower cost to the network.

I do wish they'd use the SECN alternate channel more than they do. Seems like it's only ever used during football season, unless there's an overlap between SECN events.

Might have to get that for my parents. They're always having trouble connecting their phones to the chromecast.

The only time I can think of that it wasn't used for football or overlapping with another SECN event was one of the A&M baseball games last year. Since it was #1 vs. #2, they had to find a way to get it on TV, so they used the alternate channel. That's the kind of thing I'd like to see a lot more often.

I live in the sticks, too. But, one of the major criteria for my home/land purchase was that high-speed internet be available. HughesNet sucks.

In other words, move.

I don't remember the alternate channel ever working for me when games were supposed to be on there due to overlap and I think a lot of people were saying the same thing if I recall.

Yeah, that's come up often. There doesn't seem to be too many issues when a game is scheduled there in advance, only when it's moved because of overlap. I think it depends on your provider, I feel like DirecTV people have had that happen more than anyone else.

I miss watching the games on CST, especially on Sunday afternoons.

I'm a huge Astros fan. Do you know the hoops I've had to jump through to watch their games the past few seasons? This is a professional team mind you, and I'm living only 2 hours outside of Houston. I WISH half their games were on a legal stream that wasn't blacked out in my market, much less on television.

$40 and they can use your log-in if they don't have SEC Network themselves. It's awesome..I caught one of the softball games last weekend on it.

The ability to watch EVERY SINGLE game of a college baseball team's season is disappointing? I would call it the opposite of that.

I'm able to watch every LSU baseball game on my Apple TV in HD from Florida.
3 years ago I would only catch 3 or 4 games
SECn+ and watch ESPN are both incredible
