College football is back, and the first week of action begins Thursday, Sept. 3. For fans who want to catch every game without a traditional cable subscription, Sling provides a range of streaming options that fit any budget.
Why Sling Is a Good Choice
Sling’s live‑TV service includes the major sports networks—ESPN, ESPN2, FOX, FS1, TNT, and more—so you can watch all the marquee matchups. The platform also offers a flexible pricing structure: a 1‑Day Pass for $4.99, a 3‑Day Pass for $9.99, and a 7‑Day Pass for $14.99. Add‑ons such as extra sports channels cost just $1‑$3 extra per pass.
Season‑Long Savings
If you plan to follow the entire season, the Essentials & Select + Sports Extra plan starts at $49.99 per month. Prepaying for the five‑month football season earns you a 20 % discount, making it a cost‑effective way to stay connected to the sport.
Week 1 Schedule Highlights
Here are some of the top games you can stream through Sling during the opening weekend:
- Clemson vs. LSU – Saturday night, ABC, Tiger Stadium, Baton Rouge, La.
- Louisville vs. Ole Miss – Sunday, ABC, Nissan Stadium, Nashville, Tenn.
- Ohio State vs. Ball State – Saturday, Big Ten Network, Ohio Stadium, Columbus, Ohio.
- Texas vs. Texas State – Saturday, ESPN, DKR‑Texas Memorial Stadium, Austin, Texas.
All of these games, plus dozens of others across the weekend, are available on the channels included with Sling’s standard packages.
How to Get Started
Visit Sling’s website, choose the pass length that fits your schedule, and create an account. Once you’ve signed up, you’ll have instant access to the Sling Orange package, which carries the sports channels needed for college football. No long‑term contract is required for the short‑term passes.
Whether you’re a die‑hard fan or just want to catch a few key matchups, Sling’s flexible streaming options let you enjoy college football on your terms.
