I just think in this major media presence age we live in, people would watch it.
Obviously not.
I am going to go with the people that analyze this stuff for a living over your opinion.

It seems as if all the SEC teams are being shown on ESPN expect LSU. Hell some teams are being shown Sat. and Sunday LSU can't get ine freaking game.

Yesterday, I was able to watch parts of St Johns vs Louisville, OU vs UNO, Arky vs A&M, LSU vs Bama, TCU vs whoever they played.
Obviously there is a market for college baseball on TV.

I paid for Geaux Zone for quite sometime but then when you still have to pay extra to get football out of conference games I cut it out. I would rather just watch a broadcasted stream rather then pay and still not get everything. You would think all the apps and other online media streams would be top notch at LSU but they aren't. I'm not sure how we compare to other schools but using a college program based coverage I would gladly pay to help out their departmental development.

i think college baseball has been impacted by the internet and satelite tv more than any other NCAA sport...
i remember when it was a novelty to see the Sunday games at the Box televised and i thought we were the only team that even broadcasted regular season games or our regional. ESPN had Omaha, CBS had the final, and that was the only college baseball the nation would see.
then around the mid 2000s ESPN got a few games. they had an LSU/Tulane game from Zephyr Field that was a midweek sellout on in prime time
then they showed the Super Regionals. their first one was '03 when LSU played Baylor
a few years later Internet service got fast enough to stream games reliably
and i know it's sacrilege on an SEC site but baseball still needs B1G teams to be competitive nationally
you might remember Northeastern from a regional here years ago. college baseball still has a ways to go if Chalmette has a better facility than half of D1...

Yeah, I think that was it. There were games all over the place on various Fox Sports affiliates. St Johns vs Louisville was on CBS Sports, which is national. I think there was stuff on BTN as well.
One thing that has baffled me is that CST had the opportunity to broadcast so many more games this season since they no longer have the Hornets games, and it seems like they showed even fewer games than they did before.
Also, Jumbo hasn't picked up any Sundays like they used to. No local channel broadcasts. It is weird that LSU is having a great year and still can't get more games on TV.

Why doesn't LSU offer it's fans a Tigervision pay-per-view type deal for baseball. I don't think any other college baseball team could pull it off and make money but I think...maybe...LSU could.

hopefully the SEC with 14 teams can coordinate the online video streaming between all schools so that everyone can pay a subscription fee and get all conference home games or just their team's, like when geauxzone got MSU's feed one weekend but couldn't get Bama's feed this weekend, for instance

I agree, I live in Raceland and haven't been able to see 1 game this season.

LSU has 5 games coming up on an ESPN station between now and the end of the year. They are somewhat obligated to spread it around and get everyone on TV. LSU's appearances happen to be at the back end.
