For the first time since 2008, Alabama's A-Day Game won't air live in its entirety on cable.

The SEC Network announced it will air the April 18 game live online on the SEC Network +. It will also be part of the whip-around coverage on the SEC Network Alternative along with the other four other SEC spring games being played that day. Mississippi State, Auburn, LSU and Missouri also have spring games that afternoon.

The SEC Network + is accessed through the WatchESPN website and apps for smartphones/tablets.
