Hey guys. I decided to cut my cable off since all we do is stream and watch youtube at my house. Going to save around $1,100 a year but that’s beside the point. I’m gong to need to have something in place to watch SEC football and football in general this fall. Have any of you guys cut the cord? Looking for the best options for football this fall other than cable. Thanks

I’ve got Roku with Sling and the Sling sports package, $25 per month that includes ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, and SEC Network. I also have an HD digital antenna that allows me to pick up ABC, CBS, NBC, etc. You can get a high quality antenna for less than $40.

Download watchESPN on your Xbox and find somebody that still has cable to let you log in with their provider.
For football games on network channels like CBS just get a digital antenna

Like others have said I have the Sling, Roku, Digital Antenna set up. I also have an apple tv but only use it to stream stuff from my itunes library. I like Roku and even firesticks more than apple tv.

Cut the cord two years ago and haven't looked back. Can't believe I didn't do it sooner. Cable and satellite are so 20th century.

We want to cut the cord. Our biggest concern, and the only thing that we really watch outside of current streaming services, is the ability to stream sports. We have Amazon Prime, Netflix and Hulu.
Between us, we watch college sports, all major Atlanta sports, the PGA, the Capitals and the Redskins. We're concerned that we won't be able to pick up all of the sports that we watch with streaming services.

I've got Amazon Fire box/sticks, PSVue live tv service (up to 6 devices watching at the same time) core package with the extra sports stations. HD antennas as well for local stations.

I have had youtube tv for about two weeks now and I love it. Use it with my Xbox One.

Thanks for the input guys. I have a fire stick and a chrome cast already. I’m probably going with sling tv this fall.
