ESPN and Some Disney Affiliated Properties Go Dark on Directv

Seems that ABC, ESPN *and* SECNetwork are affected.

Excerpt from https://www.directv.com/tvpromise/ (once you type in your location information) (I bolded the section about SEC and ACC games):

"We’re excited to see the start of the new college and NFL football seasons too. If you’re concerned about possibly missing one of your favorite teams in the next few weeks, here’s the good news. FOX, CBS, NBC, and Amazon Prime Video televise most of the NFL action, while ESPN/ABC has one game per week. Chances are your favorite team won’t play Monday night until later in the season after we’ve had plenty of time to come to a new agreement.

Big Ten schools play nearly every game on your local FOX, CBS, and NBC stations, as well as Big Ten Network – all of which remain available on DIRECTV satellite, streaming, and U-verse. Big 12 teams will often play on FOX, FS1 or other available channels. Members of the ACC and SEC play most games on Disney-owned channels, as well as CW (ACC), so click here to check where to find your favorite NFL or college team(s).

ABC’s primetime series won’t begin to return with original episodes until the week of Sept. 17, so we’re pursuing every avenue to get your programming back as soon as possible.
