I’ll try to keep this updated throughout the season, but if it’s anything like last year I’ll forget about it halfway through March.

Week of Feb 24 - March 2

Feb 24: vs. Nicholls, 6:00pm - SECN+
Feb 26: vs. Dallas Baptist, 7:00pm - FloSports
Feb 28: vs. Kansas State, 2:00pm - D1Baseball
Mar 1: vs. Nebraska, 4:00pm - D1Baseball
Mar 2: vs. Sam Houston, 4:00pm - D1Baseball

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).

FloCollege: this is a paid subscription service. This will only be used for the DBU game at Arlington on Feb 26th. Sign up and watch Here. It appears it is $19.99 for 1 month and they don’t offer a free trial. The website says 12 screens on the same WiFi network can watch at a time but makes no mention of watching from multiple locations. Not sure if a “split subscription” would work. They do have an app for Roku, AppleTV, Firestick, and AndroidTV so if you have one of these devices you shouldn’t have to cast the game.

D1baseball.com: This will be used for the games in Frisco Feb 28-Mar 2. You’ll need a subscription to d1baseball.com that includes streaming. There are many monthly/annual options with various extras. The cheapest option is a 1 month subscription with streaming is $34.99. Subscribe Here 2/25 update: Kendall Rogers has supplied us with a discount code. Enter LSU20 for a 20% discount. Other posters have said LSU25 will be a 25% discount.

Full season info:

LSU has announced that games this year will be on ESPN2, ESPNU, SEC network, SECN+, ESPN+, FloCollege, and d1baseball.com

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…
ESPN2, ESPNU, or 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).

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).

ESPN+: this is streaming only through the ESPN app and ESPN.com/watch and is not available as a normal TV channel. While multiple games may be listed as ESPN+, the only game that will be EXCLUSIVELY be on ESPN+ is the Nicholls game on Feb 19th (see final note at the end of this post for other games listed as ESPN+). 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).

FloCollege: this is a paid subscription service. This will only be used for the DBU game at Arlington on Feb 26th. Sign up and watch Here. It appears it is $19.99 for 1 month and they don’t offer a free trial. The website says 12 screens on the same WiFi network can watch at a time but makes no mention of watching from multiple locations. Not sure if a “split subscription” would work. They do have an app for Roku, AppleTV, Firestick, and AndroidTV so if you have one of these devices you shouldn’t have to cast the game.

D1baseball.com: This will be used for the games in Frisco Feb 28-Mar 2. You’ll need a subscription to d1baseball.com that includes streaming. There are many monthly/annual options with various extras. The cheapest option is a 1 month subscription with streaming is $34.99. Subscribe Here

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.

Again, this is how to watch the games legally

the best time to pay for ESPN+ for one month is when Squeeze Play covers regionals and supers

This is unusual, no? Seems like past years I've had to pay for a one month stretch with more than one away non-SEC game.

midweek bump. Hoping to avoid some of the SECN+ vs ESPN+ issues over these 2 days.

It's guaranteed to be a shitshow of a stream, but I saw the weekly segment with KR on tigerbait.com and he said there would be a 20% off code for LSU fan subscribers to d1baseball content. He said it right at the end of the video and mentioned that he would tweet it out also.

In cajun I trust!
