Christmas and New Year’s aren’t the only reasons to celebrate this season; the NCAA College Football Playoff and NCAA Bowl Games are just around the corner too. And one of the best (and most affordable) ways to watch college football games is with a subscription to Sling TV — especially since YouTube TV just recently announced a price hike for their streaming service.

The NCAA Bowl Games start on Wednesday, Dec. 18, with the Boca Raton Bowl: James Madison vs. Western Kentucky. The bowl game takes place at FAU Stadium in Boca Raton, Florida, with kickoff at 5:30 p.m./2:30 p.m. PT. You can watch the game on ESPN via Sling TV. Check out a complete schedule for all of the bowl games this season here.

How to Watch NCAA College Football Games on Sling TV

A subscription to Sling TV Orange + Blue — which comes with ESPN, ESPN2, ABC, TNT and Fox for the NCAA Bowl Games and the NCAA College Football Playoff — gets you access to live TV and local and cable channels, starting at $30 for the first month of service ($60 per month afterwards). That’s right: You’ll get 50% off your first month of service for all of Sling TV‘s plans, which are considerably less than YouTube TV’s $82.99 per month starting price.

You can watch local networks such as NBC, while you can also watch many cable networks, including NFL Network, FS1, Lifetime, FX, AMC, A&E, Bravo, BET, Cartoon Network, Fuse, CNN, Food Network and many others. (CBS and The CW aren’t available on Sling TV.)

Please note: If you subscribe after Friday, Dec. 20, the monthly price goes up starting at $45.99 per month for Sling Orange. Prices and channel availability depends on your local TV market. Learn more about Sling subscription prices here.

If you’re looking for an affordable alternative to YouTube TV, DirecTV Stream, Fubo and Hulu + Live TV, then start with Sling TV.
