SEC network was a stupid idea from exposure point of view. I have yet to see an LSU game in the West coast this year

bullshite. it may seem like a good deal because there is a count hair more national exposure for LSU games, but some cable companies don't carry SECN and I could watch the spring game, replays of games from the last year, and games not picked up by bigger networks on CST just fine before SECN. now, I'd have to upgrade my whole cable package just to get 2 channels to watch less LSU content for at least $50 more per month. and the added bonus is that part of that upgrade fee goes toward airing and paying all the other sec teams that I don't give two shits about when they aren't playing LSU. basically, that entire extra $50 per month cable subscription would go toward allowing my to watch the spring game and mcneese state. total rip off. (smaller games aired on CST in the past were also available to stream through ESPN's streaming service, so the only change is that I have to pay more per month to get what I've already had for years = a reductive in service for a higher cost)



Boo frickin hoo. You aren't the only person LSU is appealing to. Deal with it

Good grief, the LSU softball game was what delayed the replay. Frankly, I wish they would have cut SEC Now to less than an hour but it is probably ad $ talking.

My thoughts on the game,and they cut some of it out, but not much For all the passing yards that were put up by the QBs, zero came against the top 3 CBs (TW, EP, and KT). In fact, they were only targeted 4 total times that I saw and were 0-4 with the one interception. I still give Harris an advantage over Jennings and the new kid looked pretty good. BH did call time out twice on getting a play in the game. Gage has a lot of work to do to be an SEC corner. Battle has a ways to go at S.

Chark has clearly by passed Quinn at this time.

DW looks quicker as a RB and Ducre had an awesome run to get the Purple TD and flat trucked Jefferson on another play, who we have seen play well. LF had one great cut back, but mostly was going thru the motions which is fine. No injuries which is the most important aspect.

Many passes were targeted to the TEs and they did well.

Jones looked good at LB as did Feist who hopefully is more than a spring warrior.

Again it is a practice but both QBs looked better than last year. Anyway, who knows in the long run, but LSU has some serious FB players.

yes, and they, too, were already available through ESPN streaming and/or geaux zone prior to SECN. I'm not vouching for geaux zone, but my point is that there is nothing SECN provides that wasn't already available, except for feinbaum and other non-LSU events.

I don't think some people understand that not all cable companies currently subscribe to SEC+, so it does little good to show content on that channel for many.

LSU on LSU crime. The Softball game ran long and delayed everything that followed.

if by less content you mean exponentially more you are right. change cable companies dude. it's pretty simple.

If you owned a smart tv or a roku it would be the same as pressing three buttons or less. SEC network has been awesome, I just watch live events but I can't see how anyone could be unsatisfied.

Either adopt or get left behind. The spring game has been on WatchESPN since the moment it ended Saturday. Anyone bitching is basically doing the equivalent of bitching back in the day because something wasnt covered on the radio and instead was on some fancy device called a TV.


You're old but it doesnt mean you have to be a dinosaur. Learn some technology. It's really not difficult technology either.

Every single baseball game outside of the out of conference away games (8..7 so far with 1 to go) have been on one of their platforms.


They've played 40 games, so 33 games have been on one of the SECN's platforms. 33!
