The unofficial online home for fans of the UAB Blazers. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

This Spectrum v. Disney dispute has got me thinking about how to watch UAB (or any teams for that matter) while this is going on

Hulu/YouTube TV/Sling or....

ESPN+ subscription

ESPN+ and YouTube tv

We dropped spectrum tv for YouTube tv.

It has CBS sports
ESPN, 2, U
Acc Sec, and Big 10
NFL network and NBA.
Lacks Bally sports

Have ESPN plus subscription separately.

$73 compared to $127 or more.

It’s got Video on demand and multi-view. Like it so far

Has anyone tried Hulu for live TV? They have a bundle that includes live TV, ESPN+, Hulu streaming, and Disney+.

Ditto. My YouTube TV’s set up to automatically record UAB football and basketball games.

I used Sling when I first got away from Charter/Spectrum. It was great at first, but then it felt like they started to nickel and dime me to death with extra tiers. That was especially true when we were in CUSA and would be on a variety of different networks.

I only did the free trial of Hulu, so I wouldn’t be a good judge. I remember it being similar to YouTube TV, but I couldn’t get accustomed to the differences in the 7 day period, so I switched back.

ESPN+ on AppleTV

How has your Hulu experience been?

Does anyone know if any local breweries are showing the game tomorrow?

I have been happy with Hulu Live, which is going up to around $90 a month soon. Still cheaper than what I was paying for cable. Haven't regretted cutting the cord one bit, and I put it off forever. The interface is easy to use to me. Some people I am told prefer YouTube. Personal preferences, I guess. I like Hulu better.

Bundling it with ESPN+, I can actually see all the live ESPN+ content within Hulu without having to go to the ESPN app. That's nice. It's especially nice if you like to bounce from channel to channel because you can bounce from a Fox or CBS game to an ESPN+ without having to leave the app.

I've had Hulu Live for years, and love it. I get my local network stations, a wide package of TV and movies, ESPN family. SEC, B1G, ACC, Fox, NBC Sports, NFL Network channels. It's a little pricey but I get a ton of use out of it.

Hulu with ESPN+, part of the Disney bundle.

Also would like to know this.

Nice thing about youtubeTV is you can put 4 games on the screen at once and easily pick which one has audio, or just switch to it full screen.

Watching Tulane - Ole Miss, UTEP - Northwestern, ECU - Marshall and Navy -Wagner at the same time and avoiding commercials like a pro.

How do you watch UAB games?

With my eyes closed and my fingers crossed (since last season).

I stream the game and meticulously sync it up with the TuneIn app so that I can listen to David and Bryant.
