A Hotspot Shield should be able to get you game if you're using WatchESPN

Hate to burst your bubble, but you need to check your geography. Those blackout areas are not Beaumont or Houston.

It wouldn't do you any good anyway -- the game is sold out

People. This isn't complicated. CST has affiliates either via Cox or other cable providers all across the country. These markets that are blacked out for ESPN3 are airing the game on CST in that market.

Sometimes these "random" markets are airing the game because there isn't a more local events that could trump this game. Same reason you'll end up watching the AAA Omaha team in Baton Rouge on CST.

If you are in Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Mobile or the area in Texas from Beaumont to Houston it will be blocked out.

Might want to check it anyway. I watched some FCS football games on espn3 this past season that were supposed to be blacked out by CSTV. I doubt they will make that mistake for LSU but never know.

Because CST has the game. And they aren't going to let ESPN3 broadcast the game in areas they provide CST.


Except CST doesnt provide to service to all of Louisiana. I can't watch CST in Bunkie.

CST is a network.

It's up to your local provider(s) if they want to carry CST. Apparently a provider in the media market that covers Bunkie offers CST.

There are multiple apps that let you change your IP Address to let you watch on ESPNWatch. I use HotSpotVPN.

I have DISH, which carries CST. Problem is, they won't offer it to you based on certain Zip Codes, mine being one that can't get it.
