I used Sling plus their sports add-on for years every football season. Last year it was lagging, and their was some ESPN negotiation going on. So I cancelled and signed up for Youtube TV. It was way better, and switching between channels was easier. I need to reactivate my sub for that soon before football starts. It really is one of the simplest packages and has tons of channels.

Your cheapest option will be Sling. Just download the ESPN app after you have service. Grab an HD antenna for local games.

YouTube Tv will get you all the SEC games. Only thing YouTube Tv slacks on is baseball. It doesn’t have MLB network or Bally’s

You people should read more books. I mean, I don't read books and have no interest in starting....but maybe it'll drive the demand down and we can reel in these prices.

I prefer Hulu Live over YouTube myself. I can watch every LSU game each fall. It includes the various SEC network feeds for some of the less popular match ups.

I have an IPTV app that I pay $20/month for and it gets every sporting event. Football, baseball, basketball, hockey. On top of that, I get all the movie channels and locals from all across the country.

You tube is all you need. I use Samsung plus. It's great plus it's free if you buy Samsung

I just get hulu for football season then cancel until march madness time. After that I cancel again.
Youtube tv picture is much less vivid than Hulu.
I pay the five dollars per month for the NFL service where you can hear the audio broadcast of every game through an app and find myself watching less and less.
I dont need 999 channels I never watch and any series you want to watch you can buy on Amazon.

We probably spend more on streaming services than we did on cable.
We have:
-YouTube TV
-Prime
-Netflix
-Hulu
-ESPN+
-Disney
-Paramount
-Discovery Plus
-Max
-Sundance (mainly because we can't remember who signed up or what the password is to cancel it or watch it)
I was paying Directv $200ish a month. I have all those, and I feel like I'm still coming out ahead.

I've often wondered if this is commercial free?

So, what I wanted to ask is, would I be able to watch the majority of SEC football games if I got the ESPN + Hulu + Disney bundle?
If you mean the ESPN+ bundle, then no..
You would have to have Hulu Live TV bundle. Cheapest streaming option for football is going to be sling.

got YouTube TV as well and can watch majority of the SEC games.
YoutubeTV is definitely better for sports than most other services.
Also, I switched from DirectTV Now bc they only allow for 1 home "base". YoutubeTV let's me stream at different houses.
