Time to sign back up for a steaming service with football season. Right now my choices are between YouTube, FUBO and Hulu+. I’ve done each one before. Probably leaning to YouTube. B10 availability is a must. Am I missing any other options? EDIT: looks like Sling has B10 too with a sports plus package . Anyone have that?

What do you guys think? Which one do you like?
 
I use YouTube TV and I’m happy as a college football fan. Get every channel you need with the base plans, only one it’s missing is Pac-12 network but not a huge deal for me. The price increases over time have been a little annoying though. Rarely any problems with buffering, lag, etc.
 
another vote for Youtube TV here. in addition to the points above, the unlimited DVR is pretty awesome. if you're a true degenerate you can set it to record every CFB game and then watch whatever games that turn out to be good
 
Used to being the smartest guy in the room.





Seriously though does YouTube TV track your zipcode?
yes. I was splitting my subscription with a buddy that lives in another state. every month or 2 he'd get locked out until he signed in from the home market for the account. since he couldn't do that we had to keep making new gmail accounts for him to sign in. the pro is that wherever you travel you get the local networks automatically

splitting the subscription is the best feature, imo. you can have up to 6 unique users per account and all split the cost

I agree splitting the cost is the best feature. I'm not going through that much work though. Hulu didn't start tracking zip codes until about 6 months ago.
 
Using Sling this year after Fubo and YouTube in the past. Seems to be a better price and you also get Pac 12 network. Only thing it doesn't have is CBS Sports Network, which seems to have limited availability in general.

I think you always have to confirm with these before you sign up that they have the important local broadcast networks in your area.

Hulu has been tracking since at least 2018. I was out of state for 10 weeks and they cut me off about halfway through saying I needed to connect to my home network.

My daughter has been using my youtube tv for the last three years while away for college. With zero issues.

Weird. Never had any issues until about 6 months ago.
