HELP!
Long winded but I hope someone can help.
Over the years I've had satellite tv and cable but dropped both of them because i was sick of their constant nickle and dime over charges and price increases so i reverted to an old school roof tv antenna. Problem is you can't watch the football playoffs for free anymore.
2 years ago I used a fubo free trial to watch the playoff, last year i bought a month of sling tv to watch the playoffs. Neither one is a viable option this year so i need another option.
I tried signing up for espn online and get an application error message with edge browser and a page that won't load with firefox whereas i don't have any problems with either browser anywhere else on the internet. So i tried signing up for espn on youtube and get a message stating 'youtube membership is for usa residents only, you are not in the usa' WTF? I am in Ohio using standard usa spectrum internet, no vpn or false blocking. Isn't technology great?
So anyway, I recall a couple years back someone posted a website that offered premium tv sports events for free but i no longer have that link or even know if it's still a valid website anymore.
Does anyone here know a website where i can watch the college playoffs for free? LINK?
TIA to anyone that can help, i will highly be indebted to you!

Supposed to be watching not eatching.
No edit button sigh
There's a chance you can find a free live stream on you tube. If you've been a customer before, with a different email and credit card, you can take advantage of "new customer" free trials on yttv, fubo, etc. although not free you can get a 24 hour sling subscription for 4.99.
Mickey, thanks for your reply although likely none will help in my situation.
Anyway i seriously appreciate your responses. Anyone else have any ideas/knowledge on the situation?
Find a bar or restaurant and watch it there.
ww, that thought crossed my mind but i don't really want to sit in a bar for 3.5-4 hours especially since i'm not feeling well today. I may have caught a bug recently so there's no reason to possibly give it to someone else or end up getting worse myself.
Update, i bit the bullet and signed up with sling for their 1 day plan. That 4.99 price is really closer to 6.50 with tax and fees but that's no issue.
The real issue is I'm getting I was able to access the site to renew my subscription but when i went to their guide i'm getting a 'location issue 11-6' message and can't proceed anywhere else on their site. I google it and it seems to be a common problem but i didn't find an actual solution so i called my ip, spectrum and they ran a test and my modem seems to be fine so they give me 3 phone numbers to sling and none of them are valid any more. Like i said in my 2nd post above, sling's customer service is SHIT!
So now i'm back to square one, anyone else have any answers?
Fix your location issue with your service provider.
^ Way ahead of you buddy, I've been on the phone with spectrum twice today, once for an hour and again for an 1.5 hours, no resolution. Couldn't connect to sling after signing up. Sling sucks! I have ESPN radio on, i'll be listening to the game not watching it.
I will continue to look around online to see if i can find a video feed.
Go buy a SUPERBOX from Walmart.com, pay $399 AND NEVER HAVE A CABLE BILL AGAIN. I have owned several for years. I get every channel out there, no charge.
KODI.... learn how to on youtube.
Well this issue is dead to me now but I figured I'd follow up. I ended up listening to my game on ESPN radio, and even though my team lost I still had some interest in the other games and listened to them on the radio too.
The strange thing regarding my issue with sling tv was that I could watch non premium sling for free before i bought that 1 day access then couldn't get on site at all while registered and now that my paid time is over and can access the regular site and channels again. I don't know what that issue was but it won't matter again until next year.
As for the other mentions re superbox and kodi, thanks but seeing that i don't watch much tv anyway or often just have it on as background sound i'll just stick with my roof antenna for now.
