TV Schedule came out...
- Thread starter David Rice
- Start date
Question: do SEC Network games stream online, and if they do, what medium should I use to access them?
Uh, the Louisville game isn't on TV? Or just not listed cuz time is TBA (though channels are listed for SEC tourney with times TBA)?
I use several it just depends on where I find them. You can always use funchester.
I love the schedule but why do they only play 5 games in December, and all 5 are Saturday games. Waiting between games in December is going to suck.
Thank his only 4 9PM weekday games, those are the absolute worst. Also December is always awful with a week between games.
Finals and Holiday break. These kids are in college afterall.
Duke game at 9:30 pm on a Tuesday night? Both schools are in the eastern time zone. Realistically it probably won't tip until almost 10:00 pm. Ridiculous that maybe the marque match up of the entire season will be played on a day and time that will keep a huge number of fans from watching. What about the school kids, people who have to get up early for work and the older fans?
You can get an app called mobdro on an android device. It has SEC Network and is free. You have to download the app from the mobdro site though. It's not on the Google Play Store.
Who know, it might not be the last time we play on a 9:00 against Duke even though I hope they're watching.
A real fan would watch if it tipped off at 2 AM. I know I would. I don't mind late games, I get to eat dinner after 4 PM.
Who's going to MSG? Make sure to wear your username on your shirt.
.. so I can huck beer cans at you.

I'm not even going to get into the "real fan" crap. My point is the fact that such a late tip is an inconvenience to tons of fans who would love to watch. Thousands of school kids and workers who get up at 3 or 4 in the morning won't get the chance to watch what may end up being the best regular season game of the year.
Normally, you miss games, oh well.. but that Duke one, you better have a pretty good excuse. And that's not one I DVR and wait either.. If for some reason I can't watch it live.. I'd have constant updates. Not a game I can wait to find out what happened.
I must be an oddity. When I was young and both working and going to school I found a way. Cat naps, coffee, whatever it took.
Granted, late evening starts aren't copacetic with many bed times. No one has been able to keep those later games off the schedule. I've seen coaches complain, players complain, and I'm sure along the way I likely complained. But it is what it is and I just learned to accept it and work around it.
I also hate 9PM games. We usually follow a Big Ten foul fest that bleeds over into our time, often causing an even later start. On top of that, I work 3rd shift and I only get to watch the first half. :angry:
I'm sure it all comes down to ratings and money. You're right, nothing we can do about it, but it makes me feel better to gripe a little. :weary:
There is also more than just 1 time zone. It is the marquee game and they want the most eyeballs on it.
Kansas/Michigan State starts at 7, so the game will likely start somewhere close to 9:30 or 9:45 instead of 10.
If I had to wake up at 3 a.m. to go to work, I'd stay up to Midnight to watch Kentucky/Duke. You have to do what you have to do.
I hate those SEC games on CBS. I rarely get to see them, since local stations play an ACC regional game instead.
A game that will likely feature the top 2 teams in the country at that part, and will be an all-out war. Rupp will be insane.
