Does Youtube tv let you see pretty much anything you want?

The lineup works well for us. I chose it originally because it had the best sports included at the time I subscribed. Just like any other service, though, they might not offer every channel that you are looking for.

Like someone else said, the price has gone up a lot since I subscribed but I still come out cheaper than I was with only Charter.

Last year was our chance...and we blew it. Vitello is good but no savior. You don't get many chances like last year...gotta take advantage....and we didn't.

Funny, considering the season before we had a worse record, didn’t win the SECT, yet made the CWS. He might not ever win a national championship here but he’s already surpassed what the previous two coaches did combined. Yeah, let’s go back to scratching and clawing just to get to 25 wins overall and 7 conference wins in a season. Some of y’all need to get better at trolling.

Vitello will get this roster figured out, I think he needs to work the rotation some. 22-10 in a rebuilding year isnt bad, and they still have an SEC gauntlet to play through, if they can snag the series win versus the West Porkers next weekend, then I feel they can create some noise!

Cmon. You guys know this team isn't that good. I root for em to win every game...but last year was considered to be one of greatest of all time and we still came up short. To say that wasn't our big chance is being ridiculous. What has anybody seen in this year's team to say this year's has a shot at the title? Baseball can be weird though so we can hope in the randomness of the game i guess.

Exactly. Pre-TV, our goal was to make it to the final regular season series without being eliminated from the SEC tourney. It doesn't take long for people to completely lose perspective. I'm afraid the same thing will happen with Heupel. If they win 9 games this season, there will be some wanting to put him on the chopping block.

No num 1 seed has won the CWS in this millennium, so..... a metric ton of "greatest of all time" teams have failed in the last two decades.

Any baseball team can get hot and win a few in a row. It's just a matter of how likely it is to happen based on your team's quality.

This team is loaded with quality players.

The number 1 seed hasn’t won it all since 1999. So I guess the previous two decades have been epic failures. The last team in that got into the tournament won it last year. It’s about as random of a sport as you can find. The Braves won 88 games and won the World Series in 2021. Parity is a real thing in the sport and those that have been around it their entire lives can grasp that. But, by all means keep saying last year’s team came up short and we will keep calling you a troll 🤷‍♂️

You have to consider how unpredictable baseball is, as you alluded to in your last sentence. I can say with great confidence that this team has every bit as good a chance as MSU or Ole Miss had the past two seasons. We have as good pitching depth as anyone, and that always gives you a chance.

I think this team is legitimately one of the top 15 teams in the country. Not sure how anyone would consider them “not good”. Considering they were gutted by MLB draft and turned over the entire starting hitting lineup, I’d say that they are doing very well.
last year’s team was a unicorn and simply had an “off weekend” and got beat by a veteran ND team during a weekend where the umpires seemed Intent on putting TN in their place. All of a sudden, there was zero tolerance for celebrations.

I am a long time Comcast subscriber, but have tired of their sky-high prices and awful customer service.
So I am giving Youtube TV a try this month. Mostly good channel selection and lots of extra features that offer a lot of info and more viewing options.
However, navigating around the channels and channel guide is very clumsy. If you just want to go to a specific show or game and watch, it's fine.
But if you watch a lot of TV like me, you need a much smoother function to navigate quickly.
Is there a good instructional resource for YouTube TV ?

Not that I'm aware of. Agree that the guide is a bit of a PIA but I rarely use it. I watch almost everything out of my DVR library.

You can customize the order of the channels in the guide and even remove ones from it that you never watch. Doing that definitely helps to streamline things. I haven't had to do it in a while but seems like last time that I did I did it through the Youtube TV app on my phone. You might want to try that out.

The goal is to make a regional and host if possible. Doesn’t matter how you get there. Once the postseason tourney starts, all bets are off in baseball. Just get to the dance and see what happens.

You are way to smart for some of the folks on here….hosting both Regionals and Supers would be nice however not 100% necessary, just ask Notre Dame, Texas, Arkansas, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, and Auburn, they didn’t host Supers last year and made it to the CWS…..get to post season and play well, that’s all that really matters.
