I'm impressed that all of these matches are being shown live on ESPN+. Even though it's just a simple backcourt video feed on every court, I never imagined a day where tennis, volleyball, golf, etc. are being streamed live.

This is another area where the deal that Benson struck with ESPN has been beneficial.

I think without COVID, the conference members should have been showing all home games in all sports as part of this package. If I remember correctly, ESPN provided all the HD broadcast equipment to broadcast games and the individual schools were responsible for the crews to do the actual broadcasts. I was really looking forward to being able to watch all the conference sports I typically follow at home on the road.

The conference just promoted the guy who worked the roll out of ESPN+ to be in charge of all broadcasts. That's good news for all members.

First time defeating South Alabama since entering the Sun Belt. They've eliminated us from the tournament 3 times and beaten us twice total in regular season games.

It's kinda funny the one Sun Belt team that has never beaten us in football is really the only team that can say they have our number in baseball and seems to have our number in every non-revenue sport other than golf.
