The Division I college baseball season is almost here, which means roughly 100 games will be played every weekend from now until the end of May. This is arguably the best time of year for baseball fans. But with so many games on at once, it can be a bit challenging to find exactly where to watch your favorite teams and players.

We can help. Below, we’ve put together a college baseball streaming guide to help make sense of all the options available. The good news for college baseball fans? It has never been easier to watch and stream the game, especially if you have an ESPN+ subscription.

What is the best streaming service for college baseball fans?

For any college baseball diehard, it is a no-brainer to subscribe to ESPN+. The $10.99 per month price is worth every penny, and with it you are able to unlock almost every game. You can watch on your computer, phone and television. ESPN+ is a valuable asset for streaming multiple games. For me personally, I can open more than one window on my laptop and have two games going on either half of my screen.

What about the ACC and SEC Network?

Great question. Both are included in every major cable provider’s—Xfinity, DirecTV, Spectrum, etc.—set of channels and are easily accessible. If you rely on a streaming service as opposed to cable, you’re also in luck. Both networks are included in your YouTubeTV, Hulu Live TV, or Sling subscriptions.

You might also see that certain games are only available on ACCNX or SEC+. Don’t worry, you won’t have to pay for either service and they are included so long as your TV provider—no matter if it’s cable or streaming—carries the ACC and SEC Network. To access said games, you will be prompted to sign in with your provider and your information should be remembered for future access. These channels are not accessible on TV, so you will most likely be relegated to watching on your computer or phone.

The Big Ten offers a baseball-specific option

The Big Ten is rather straightforward. Most major cable providers carry the Big Ten Network, and so do the main streaming services such as Fubo, Hulu Live TV, Sling and YouTube TV. While there are standalone games on the Big Ten Network, oftentimes conference games are streamed on BTN+. A paid subscription is required, you can purchase a baseball-only subscription for $39.99 a year. You would have to pay the full $39.99, but if you choose to cancel the subscription after the baseball season concludes it would be the equivalent of about $13 a month, which isn’t a whole lot different than a monthly ESPN+ subscription.

The Longhorn Network…?

Texas is perhaps the most difficult team to watch if it’s not playing on national TV. You need access to the Longhorn Network for most of their home games. As someone with Xfinity on top of YouTube TV and ESPN+, it’s still a struggle to watch the Longhorns. This might be a “me” problem as it is available on Cox, DirecTV, DISH and Verizon, but not having access to the network with an ESPN+ subscription is a bit annoying. It also is not included on the majority of streaming services, which only makes it more of a hassle to access. However, it very rarely is a legitimate problem, and even if I cannot physically watch the Longhorns play on a certain night, I have no trouble keeping up with them.

There will also be a number of games broadcasted nationally on ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU, but I doubt anyone needs help on where and how to access those channels. That just about covers everything, but if you still have any questions please feel free to reach out to me. Happy college baseball season!
