I am wondering if someone can explain how things work with paying to stream/watch college games.
As an example, I upgraded from just an inexpensive Disney plus subscription to one with espn plus for a month in order to watch the Michigan versus Michigan basketball game tonight. But it is not being streamed on espn plus tonight?
Any tips on how to know you will be getting a specific game on a specific Chanel on a specific night would be appreciated.

Shehawk,
foxsports should do it for the majority of Big 10 basketball games. It is free.

Thanks JasonCh
The game was successfully watched!!
Anyone have suggestions for how to watch Minnesota Gophers football games this fall?
What about teams like Michigan or Alabama?
I am not a football watcher. I am a sci-fi nerd, so the $3 a month Disney package special or the occasional Paramount plus package so we could catch up on the new Star Trek series was fine by me. But I am setting up basic streaming for other people watch what they would like to watch when they visit.
DAC (darling adult child) asked me if I was making a social statement by not having a TV (or channels) so I think that they were the family spokesperson for having something to watch other than old Star Wars movies :)
Figuring out how to stream specific games, especially college games, seems complicated at best. But I am confident someone can explain this to me :)

When I want to watch a specific team, I check the team's website for the game. That generally tells me how to watch.
Streaming companies have ensnared so many of us that I think some of us forget about OTA (Over The Air) broadcasting. I looked at new streaming packages for the super bowl until I remembered that the big 4 networks broadcast football games. I didn't need more streaming packages - I just needed to switch to my TV antenna and TV tuner of stream from Tubi.
I just checked my guide - NBA and college basketball on ABC, CBS, and Fox this AM and PM. Track and field on NBC.

You don't have to like your boundaries. You just have to set and enforce them.
