Just thinking the same thing Friday. It blows my phone up with State football and basketball (and somehow womens basketball)... but no baseball.
It only has a ncaa baseball tab, not individual teams (due to lack of interest/ limited on return nationally).

It’s a hassle to find our games in general. If you look through the NCAA baseball category we are usually toward the back and you have to scroll through a number of random games to find us. I usually just go down to the SECN+ channel category but even that is buried toward the bottom of the home page.

Alerts would be great for baseball.

Also I wish I could favorite any other State sports in the Disney+ app so it’s easier to find. First world problems but it’s a pain to search for every game. Maybe the ESPN app has something but I’ve stopped using it since Disney+ supported all content.

ESPN does a horrible job with baseball... but you can find games to watch on your phone.

You can use your current TV provider to access games but they make it hard. They want you to buy their plan even if you already have a provider that gives you access to ESPN+ for those lower profile games.

I've found success going to the HailState app first for any sport - the calendar shows the game, which connects me automatically to the game on ESPN (or wherever that game is shown).

That’s fine if you’re watching on a phone or tablet, but to my knowledge doesn’t really work if you are operating through the ESPN app on a smart TV.

Do they not allow you to set reminders/alerts for MSU Baseball? Or am I missing something?
There isnt enough fan support for college baseball as a whole. You couldn't find scores till a few years ago.

It's also the worst mega corporation, highly used, app in the world. The fact that I can't select stream quality is insane

Quickest way I found is Go to search and enter "missi" and our game will be there.

Just scroll all the way to the bottom and find the channels and click on SEC network plus.

^^^ this. Scroll to conferences, then click on SEC. Easy peasy chicken squeezy. Why do people try to make simple ****, hard?

It’s not difficult, but it’s not user friendly either. I’ve been dealing with their app for over a decade now, I know just fine how to find our games. My point is it should be simpler to set a favorite team or two and have their games right there at the forefront for you.

Plenty of other apps have figured out similar concepts, ESPN has not.

Download the app “Sports Alerts”, you can get alerts for just about everything on most sports (including MSU baseball)……team news, game starts / ends, score changes, etc.

If you are using ESPN unlimited just watch using the Hulu or Disney+ interface. It will automatically bring MSU games to the front.

Just asinine that the first game of the DH Saturday didn't get a streaming link until 2nd inning. Then Game 2 never got a link. Guess the camera crew went home after Game 1
