Where to watch the Indiana vs. Oregon game without cable
You can tune in to the Peach Bowl game on ESPN. ESPN is available on streaming platforms, including DirecTV and Sling, but for the most comprehensive college football coverage, you can also watch this game and hundreds more on the ESPN app with an ESPN Unlimited subscription.
ESPN's new streaming service is divided into two tiers: the ESPN Unlimited package and the ESPN Select package.
For $29.99, the ESPN Unlimited package includes access to all of ESPN's linear networks: ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SECN, ACCN, ESPNews, and ESPN Deportes, as well as access to programming on ABC, ESPN+, ESPN3, SECN+, and ACCNX. That means fans will get coverage of more than 47,000 live events each year, plus on-demand replays, original programming and more.
ESPN Select (also referred to as ESPN+) is also still an option if you don't want to commit to the full package. For $12.99/month, you can tune in and get exclusive access to events like select NCAA football games, F1 driver cams, simulcasts of certain sports that air on other channels and more.
DirecTV is currently offering its Entertainment tier package for just $49.99 for your first month – a $40 savings over the regular rate.
DirecTV's Entertainment tier gets you access to loads of channels where you can tune in to college and pro sports, including ESPN, TNT, ACC Network, Big Ten Network, CBS Sports Network, and, depending on where you live, local affiliates for ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC.
Whichever package you choose, you'll get unlimited Cloud DVR storage and access to ESPN+'s new streaming tier, ESPN Unlimited.
The best part is that you can currently try all this out for free for 5 days. If you're interested in trying out a live-TV streaming service for football season but aren't ready to commit, we recommend starting with DirecTV.
