Yea, I'm able to watch replays and the LSU game Live. I have direct TV with AT@T, internet too. Is there a cable channel ESPN3 or is that internet only?

From what I gather if you just have Direct TV NOW not the regular Direct TV satellite you don’t get access to Watch ESPN. Direct TV Satellite is good.

I am watching the game right now using the ESPN app while logged in under my DirecTVNow account on my Roku.

Happened during football season. I dropped the service after it happened.

Directv (satellite) is a separate service from directv now (streaming).

I have DirectTV satellite service, and I usually watch ESPN3 games on Fire Stick ESPN app. Just tried it and it said I wasn’t authorized, but deleting and reinstalling the app fixed it.

DirectvNow and the ESPN App work fine on my Roku, but doesn't work on the Fire TV. As a matter of fact, I can watch ESPN3 with my Directv Now login on everything but my Fire TV. I can watch ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNews,ESPNU, and the SEC Network on the Fire TV using the ESPN App and my Directv Now login. Simple solution though is get a Roku.

That is correct. Reinstalling the app works wonders and yes, I watched the game on ESPN3.. I've gotten incorrect info from DTV before.

ESPN use to be the sport leader...now they are just a propaganda bullsh*t network. Pushing Alabama and Other blue blood crap. They are the CNN of sports, fake news...

We got it last night with Direct TV Now. We tried the ESPN app on iPad and TV, but no dice. My wife then tried the WatchESPN app. It didn’t work either, but true to her nature she kept picking at it, and on the third try WatchESPN worked. Funny woman.

That's great info. Just tried it and scrolled to the game. I've always seen that pop-up, but never knew what it meant. I have Ruko so I get ESPN3 through it

This thread is a lie. I've watched plenty of games including the last two with my directv NOW login.
