How to watch the LSU baseball game - March 15-17, MSU series

With this post being pinned, I figured I would try to keep it updated all year with how to watch "today's" game.


March 15-17. LSU at MSU.
Friday: 6:00pm SECN+
Saturday: 4:00pm SECN
Sunday: 1:00pm SECN+

SECN+: this is streaming only through the ESPN app or ESPN.com/watch, it is not a channel on your television. Log into the ESPN app or ESPN.com/watch using your TV provider credentials (TV provider can be cable, satellite, or internet tv like YouTube TV or Hulu Live). Your TV package must include SEC Network as one of its channels in order to have access to SECN+. If you don't have a TV provider that includes SEC Network, technically you will not be able to access the game. However, you can log in with someone else's cable credentials or find "less than legal" streams in various places (Won't promote those, but read the comments).

SECNetwork: these channels are accessed through your cable provider. Watch through your cable box (or app). An additional option is to stream these through the ESPN app by logging in with your credentials from your cable provider (or someone else’s cable provider). However, your cable subscription must include these channels in order to stream them. You can log in with someone else's cable credentials or find "less than legal" streams in various places (Won't promote those, but read the comments).


Full season info:

LSU has announced that games this year will be on ESPN2, ESPNU, SEC network, SECN+, ESPN+, and Space City Home Network.

For the purposes of this post, the term “cable provider” means any service where you pay to watch a package of channels that includes ESPN (cox, direct tv, YouTube tv, Hulu live, sling, etc.)

Quick note … the ESPN app houses 2 services. There is the cable based subscription (channels you get through cable) that is free as long as you have cable, and there is ESPN+ which is a separate subscription with a monthly fee.

If the game is on…

ESPN+: this is streaming only through the ESPN app and ESPN.com/watch and is not available as a normal TV channel. It is a paid subscription service that cannot be accessed with your cable credentials. You must sign up for (and pay for) ESPN+ to get it. Sign up here If you already Hulu and Disney plus, there is a discount. However, you can log in with someone else's ESPN+ account credentials or find "less than legal" streams in various places (Won't promote those, but read the comments).

Final note: at times games will say they are on one of the listed channels above and also ESPN+. This means if you have access to that channel through the cable provider, you can watch it free of charge and it is also available on ESPN+. They do this so that people who don’t pay for cable or people whose cable subscription does not include that channel have an option to watch by subscribing to ESPN+.

My advice: for the games on SECN+ and ESPN+ games (the ones that are streaming only) if your TV doesn’t include the ESPN app go get a $30 Roku for your TV and download the ESPN app on that.

ETA: This is how to watch the games legally
