What's the best streaming source available that has SEC Network, and the ESPNs.


I have FuboTV and agree with other posters - coverage is very good (not perfect) and the guide is strange. Overall, a thumbs up.

Every once in a while there will be a game I can't get on FuboTV. However, I've been able to work around it. The Vandy-Hawaii game was a good example. Not listed on FuboTV. However, I was able to go to CBS Sports online, log into them using my FuboTV login and password, and was able to stream the game. I can occasionally get an odd ESPN game the same way, by logging in to ESPN using my provider login and password.

And finally, if you like other sports, FuboTV is very strong. I have watched a LOT of rugby and Australian Rules Football this year on FubotV. They have tons of soccer as well - not just European stuff - but all over the world, if soccer is your thing.

I think FuboTV is still the cheapest for what you get, even cheaper than YoutubeTV, but that's just me. Good luck with whatever you choose.

FuboTV doesn’t offer SEC where I live. I think you have to check with each provider

Looks like the Sling Orange package (sports&news) is only 35/month. youtube and hulu are +/-65/month.

If all you are looking for is college football is there a reason to not use Sling TV? Or am I missing something?



You're not missing anything.

When the season starts, I sign up. When it ends I cancel. For College football alone, Sling is probably the best and cheapest option.

Received an email from Hulu today informing me that, come October, Hulu will no longer work with my Samsung TV.

Guess I’ll be going to YouTube.

We've between using Fubo for a couple of months. It's fine until I realized that it didn't have History channel, A&E or whatever channel Major League Fishing comes on. That eliminated most of my shows.

I got Direct TV streams bc I work for a company that owns a portion & got a discount. I love it. You can have 3 streams at another residence so splitting it with my father.

The price creep with all of them has been ridiculous lately. It's almost to the point where you might as well just have cable.

I only get live TV for football and only during the football months. I also only watch the games, and not the talk shows.

I had been on Hulu Live the past few years, and it works well but it's gone from $40 to over $80 in that time. I still however keep the No Ad Hulu for my wife, which is like $20ish a month, so I viewed it as $60 increase.

This year I am doing Sling. They had a promotion for half off the first month, so I got both Orange and Blue for $25 I think it was. Whatever half price is.

I looked at the Alabama schedule and they play Texas on Fox is the only reason I got both. After that game is over, and before the 1st month is over, I'll be cancelling that part of Sling and only getting the package with ESPN while dumping the Fox package.

So I think in the end it'll be about $35 a month for me. $25 cheaper than Hulu, and maybe it'll make Hulu and others think before hiking the prices up so much and often.

Cutting the cord really only starts to save money when you can pick and choose channels. And these services just bundle their shite up the same way as cable companies. IMO, they basically are no different than cable companies, other than they don't have to run all the extra hardware.

Hulu gets you ESPN+ and Disney+ included in the subscription.

My one complaint is they no longer have Bally Sports and of course it’s a time lag on all streaming
