Download ESPN app to device.

Go to settings —> “TV Provider”

Enter Dish Network login credentials

Watch football via the “Watch” tab at the bottom.

Be prepared for this to start happening quite often. As these TV deals keep climbing in cost these channels that get them are going to ask for more from cable providers which in turn is going to cause your monthly cable bill to go up. Just wait until CBS, NBC, ABC and Fox do the same.

if his Dish subscription no longer includes ESPN, I doubt that will work

There are a couple of generic sites called USATV or something similar that show most u.s. cable stationss - they all include espn & are free.

Last year I lost fox all of football season. This year I lost anything Disney owns. The want 1B bucks from Dish. Dish would have to raise prices exorbitantly. I have ESPN plus so I’ll watch it on my iPad.

ESPN+ does not include the regular ESPN programming. It is additional content.

From da google:

Can you watch ESPN on ESPN+?

ESPN+ is separate from the ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNews cable networks, so a subscription will not grant you access to live broadcasts of those channels.

I don’t have internet options where I live, dish and directv are the only two tv providers I can use. Looks like I’ll be switching to directv.

You are correct - I just tried and it doesn't. On my way to burn something now.

Disney is run by soulless ghouls, but when it comes to CFB it’s their BBQ now.

Dish has to pay the ransom. You can’t survive as a live TV provider without ESPN.

How’s your broadband? You can get a free YouTube TV trial for the week while you sort through your options (or hope Dish comes up with the cash)
