If you have SEC network you should be able to stream it for free on mobile device or tv if you have proper setup, APPLE TV, AMAZONTV< etc.

Holy hell, how do people not understand this yet. SEC+ is NOT going to play through your cable box and TV. It is the streaming station on the WatchESPN app. Online only. Yes, it is free, as in access is included with your cable subscription.

I have the watch ESPN app. I plan to connect my phone to my TV tonight. I never thought I could play it directly from my tv

I have no problem because I have Cox internet and Cable TV. I use Chrome Cast to sling it to a TV ($35 investment).

But I have a friend with Cox internet and U-Verse tv (or vice versa) and he can't watch. He's tried everything and called Cox and it won't allow. Just giving you a heads up if that is the case.

Does he pay for the SEC network? That channel is required to stream SECN+

Oh, my! This is not rocket science. SECNetwork PLUS(+) is NOT a channel. Yes, there are alternate channels on your TV if you have SECNetwork. Go to the WarchESPN app or the site on your device through your ISP. THEN, as the previous post suggested, use whatever device you have to transmit it wirelessly on your home network. I, too, use GoogleCast as it requires NO additional wiring or relocating a device.
As far as COX goes, I pity you in many ways. IF YOU LIVE in an area that is served by COX it does NOT matter what service you have it will be BLACKED OUT on the SECNetwork. How they manage to swing this is beyond my belief. You are penalized for living where you do. It doesn't seem at all right to me.

Then open up the app and take a look at it now. You don't have to wait until the game to see if you have it.

But, if you have a subscription that gives you ESPN, then you should have all of the SEC networks through the app.

Only if the game is covered on COX Sports. Not every game is. I have been able to watch majority of the games through the Watch ESPN app.

This is plainly false. Lol at you saying it isn't rocket science when you don't even know how it works.

Awesome, I have not looked at the TV schedule, so I had no idea.

I have been able to watch every LSU baseball game this year via Dish, either on WatchESPN or the SECN. You will have to install a Sling player (accessible through Dish) on a computer to get it. Some non-SECN games are also available through CBS or other areas. Since I also have Dish, I am able to get many games via DishAnywhere (as long as my wife hasn't programmed the Hopper to record several other programs). I find the WatchESPN App the best method--there are some "freezes" there, but not as many as I have gotten on the DishAnywhere option. I watch WatchESPN on my Galaxy phone and Dell laptop. Just make sure your WiFi is on, or you will rapidly eat up your media plan!

Yea, I use the WatchESPN app through my Sling account (got rid of cable, att, dish, etc years ago) and have been able to see just about every game. I think there are only around 8 I missed (2-3 blacked out, missed 2 full weekends bc of a vacation).

I have an MLB TV subscription to watch the Astros and Red Sox and I was blacked out of an Astros game when they played in New York last week. I live in Baton Rouge
