New to YouTube TV. Is SEC+ available?

I finally cut the cord (Boomer) & switched from Direct TV satellite to YTTV.
I have ESPN & SECN in my channel lineup. I can stream ESPN programming but cannot get SEC+ to work. Is SEC+ even available on YT?

Yes.
You have to use the ESPN app and sign in with your YouTube TV credentials.
When it asks, click on sign in with TV provider.

Yes. SEC+ is online content that is accessible through the ESPN app USING your YoutubeTV credentials.

Annoying part is some LSU baseball games will be on SEC Network+ (comes with youtube tv subscription) and some will be on ESPN+ (does not come with youtube tv subscription)
They really do a bad job making things seamless unless you just want to subscribe to everything

The only ones that would be ESPN+ are away games. But ESPN+ is no contract. You can just get it for a month as needed.

So I would need YTtv and ESPN+ subscription? Or does the latter come with YTtv?

This is confusing so please read carefully:
YTTV - This TV services provides access to SECN+ without buying anything else but does not provide access to ESPN+ content
ESPN+ - This is a separate subscription service that provides access to ESPN+ content. You do not need this to view SECN+ if you have YTTV. You will need ESPN+ to view ESPN+ content that is not on SECN+.

There are only a select few (maybe 1 or 2) that will be on ESPN+. If I had to guess, it will be the Nicholls game on 2/19 and maybe one other. I would suggest just trying to find a YouTube stream for those 2 games. The full TV schedule for every game should be out within the next week.

YouTube tv is essential the same as cable. They have raised their rates many times as the masses cut the cord, YouTube = cable.
Speaking of SEC Network. You can get it with the $46 Sling and the $11 sports package. Less overall channels than YouTube but lower price.

So should we just keep cable? Was considering youtube tv -- my husband wants to be able to change channels quickly and not wait for something to load. Hate hate hate paying for cable BUT if everything else is the same, just as soon keep what we have. Don't have any add ons ie movie channels .. just use netflx or prime.

If familiar operation/behavior is a requirement, check out one of the multiple DirecTV online services. You can get a box that works just like a cable box where you can type in numbers to directly go to channels and the DVR acts like a cable/satellite DVR.
Otherwise, for particular people that dont like change you might as well stick with cable but try to only pay for promo rates.

It shouldn't be that bad, you will just have to get used to it. YoutubeTv has a very customizable guide. You can put channels in whatever order you like and can even hide channels that you know you will never watch. You won't have channel numbers but can group channels of the same categories (sports, movies, news, etc) together. The Home tab also does a pretty good job of letting you sort imo. I would watch a few Youtube videos on the interface and see if there is anything about it that would be a dealbreaker for you. The only think reason that I would tell someone to stay away from YoutubeTv is if they have really spotty wifi.
