Selecting a Live TV Streaming Service

Your first step to enjoying live college and NFL football without a cable cord is to choose a live streaming TV service. While there are many apps that will showcase top games or even contests from a particular conference, to watch the most number of games, you’ll first need a service that provides live game coverage.

Of course, there are several live TV streaming services you can pick. Hulu + Live TV and FuboTV are two excellent, all-around live TV options, each with their own perks. However, for reasons we lay out below, die-hard football fans, especially of the NFL, might want to choose YouTube TV.

YouTube TV offers college football coverage through channels like ABC, CBS, FOX, and ESPN. It also comes with an unlimited DVR, giving you all the storage you need to record games and watch them later. Be sure to check out all the live TV streaming services and pick out the one that best meets your needs—just be sure the app you ultimately decide on offers the major networks in your service area!

Streaming College Football

As the college football season kicks off first, we begin with the apps and channels that stream games this year. You’ll want to make sure to add at least some of these apps to get the most amount of coverage. Apart from a live TV streaming app, the three apps and channels below are particularly useful for college football fans:

  • ESPN+ streams a variety of college football games, including those from smaller conferences and non-primetime slots. It also has a surprising amount of on-demand content and exclusive shows for thoughtful and entertaining analysis.
  • Paramount+ is key for fans to watch games broadcasted on CBS. As several marquee games are broadcasted regularly on CBS, Paramount+ may be another essential app for many college football fans.
  • Peacock livestreams games from NBC, including the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Similar to what Paramount+ does for CBS’s college coverage, having Peacock helps fill-in coverage of network-broadcasted college games.

Streaming the NFL

For NFL fans, selecting a live streaming TV service is critical, as most Sunday day games are broadcast on CBS and Fox. To round out the corners, however, you need other apps.

For example, if you haven’t gotten your fill during the Sunday day games, you’ll need Peacock, home to Sunday Night Football games. Similarly, for Monday Night Football, check out ESPN, which streams most Monday Night Football games (other than certain occasional match-ups available only ESPN+ or ABC). And because fans need football four nights a week, Amazon’s Prime Video hosts Thursday Night Football, as well!

However, by far the most complete coverage of Sunday games is NFL Sunday Ticket, available exclusively on YouTube TV. While on the pricier side, NFL Sunday Ticket lets viewers watch every out-of-market NFL Sunday game of any team. So, if you’ve relocated from your home team’s TV market to another state or region, you’ll be able to enjoy every minute of your team’s Sunday games, just as you did before you moved!

With numerous streaming options available, catching every college or NFL game this fall is easier than ever. By choosing the right package of apps and platforms, you can enjoy all the excitement of football season without missing a single play—or needing to keep a clunky cable box around!
