UPDATE: The information here also applies to Wednesday's schedule.

You may have trouble locating the SEC Baseball Tournament games for Ole Miss (9:30 a.m.) and Mississippi State (approximately 1 p.m.) on your TV today.

Those games are scheduled to be shown on SportSouth, a channel that's not widely available on Northeast Mississippi cable systems. I'm not aware of any Comcast system that carries SportSouth - a channel once known as Turner South - while it is available on Metrocast and most satellite systems.

What's more, I saw a press release that suggested that the games would be seen online through ESPN - but those games would be blacked out in markets where it was (theoretically) available on SportSouth. So I don't know if ESPN Watch will work, either.

To make it more maddening, the two later games today will be seen on CSS, which is - of course - available on all Comcast systems. And 6 of the 8 Bracket 1 games, which will include any appearances by Ole Miss and MSU, will be on SportSouth.

So find a friend with a dish, I guess, if you want to follow along.
