The 2025 NCAA football season continues with Week 13, featuring matchups such as USC vs. Oregon, Syracuse vs. Notre Dame and more. With ESPN’s revamped streaming service now in the mix, watching college football may be easier than ever this year — despite a seemingly overwhelming number of ways to tune in. Here’s how to catch your favorite team’s games without cable in 2025.
NCAA football games will air across ESPN, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC and the college conference networks. If you don’t have cable, it can be tricky to keep up with your favorite team. Here’s what we recommend to stream NCAA football in 2025.

ESPN’s 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, plus 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, on-demand replays, original programming and more.
Right now, for a limited time, you can bundle ESPN unlimited with Disney+ and Hulu and pay $29.99/month for 12 months — that’s like getting those other services free for a year! Even if you’re a current subscriber to Disney+, Hulu or even the bundle, you can still upgrade to this great deal.
Not interested in a bundle? ESPN select (the service formerly known as ESPN+) is still also an option. For $11.99/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 PPV access to UFC fights.
DirecTV has a great deal for subscribers who use a Gemini device with their plan — right now, all DIRECTV Signature Pack customers with a Gemini device will get Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN Unlimited included in their subscription at no additional cost. DirecTV packages start at $49.99 for your first month, and $85/month after.
The new Disney+, Hulu, ESPN bundle is currently available for a promotional rate of $29.99/month for a limited time, and will eventually cost $35.99/month after the promotional rate expires, so this offer through DirecTV provides considerable savings.
DirecTV’s Gemini streaming device connects viewers to 4K HD DirecTV programming and loads of streaming apps, including Disney+, ESPN, Hulu, Netflix, Max, Prime Video and more — all from within the DirecTV platform. Gemini devices cost around $10/month on top of your DirecTV Signature package subscription.
Another great benefit to note, even if you don’t get the Gemini device, every signature tier of DirecTV currently comes with ESPN unlimited included, totally free!
FOX One is a new streaming service from FOX that launched in August. With a subscription to FOX One, you can tune in to all your favorite FOX channels like FOX News, FOX Sports, FOX Weather, FS1, FS2, FOX Business, FOX Deportes, Big Ten Network (B1G), and local FOX stations all in one place.
FOX One offers live programming, as well as on-demand shows and movies. At launch, the base price for FOX One will cost $19.99 a month, or you can save with an annual subscription for $199.99. FOX Nation fans can even bundle it with FOX One for $24.99 a month, or opt for an annual subscription, which nets out to $19.99/month.
You can also bundle FOX One with ESPN’s newly revamped streaming service for $39.99/month.
