At times it delayed, but for the most part I had no issues.

I had the usual issues of it hanging during commercials. It's been doing that since I started using it. I was on a laptop, not my phone.

Exact opposite for me actually. I thought at one point during the game that it was the least trouble I ever had. Didn’t freeze at all and only got fuzzy 2 or 3 times. I was very surprised.

It may have to do with what platform you watch it on. It was my first time using the Espn app on my Apple TV.

If your smart TV has the WatchESPN app, all you have to do is go into it (w/ wifi on obviously), enter in your ISP info to log in, then find the baseball game. Usually there is a section for "NCAA Baseball" under the "Sports" tab or something like that.


I watched it on the living room TV with no problems. When I get to my computer, I started having freezing issues. It definitely depends on the platform from my experience.

I have never not had problems with it....it irritates me so badly that I don't even try any more. If an LSU event is only shown online, I watch something else.

Audio was fine--in time with the action. The video was choppy; it would freeze for a split second every couple of seconds or so. I didn't see that problem last season.

To clarify, this was the ESPN app on a Windows 10 laptop, with video running to my smart HD TV.

On a laptop it sucks, but my phone it works well.

Not a single issue, which I found incredibly surprising.

When I watch on the laptop it's so bad it's not even worth it

But watching on the fire stick last night for the first time it was perfect.

on phone early was pretty good.

on laptop, not so much.
missed the Smith dinger because it was buffering for about a year.
restarted the app and LSU had the lead already.

It was the first time in a while I actually had no issues with the app. Usually it buffers all the time

On my PC I got a message that my subscription didn't support it to call my provider. Similar message on my tv using Roku. After 30 minutes on the phone with Direct-tv they said the espn feed was faulty. Never did get it. I'm in Gretna
