Week 10 of the college football season has so far been marred by a significant disruption — YouTube TV is no longer carrying ESPN channels.
That’s due to an ongoing financial dispute between Google (who owns YouTube TV) and Disney (who owns ESPN). As a result, college football fans who rely on YouTube TV to access games are having to look elsewhere on Saturday.
That has, understandably, angered much of the college football community. YouTube TV released a statement earlier in the week stating that it would issue a $20 credit if ESPN channels are absent for a prolonged period of time.
However, YouTube TV’s service costs upwards of $80 per month — leaving many feeling uneasy about a $20 credit.
College football fans do have a potential alternative in SlingTV at roughly half the cost of YouTube TV. Sling carries all ESPN channels. SEC football games set to be broadcast on ABC this weekend can be viewed on SlingTV via a simulcast on ESPN 3.
Here’s the best of the social media reaction to ESPN’s dispute with YouTube TV:
A big middle finger to YouTube TV and ESPN….thank heavens for Sling day pass…my College football Saturday is saved

— Bradley Carter (@bradvolfan05) October 31, 2025My YouTube TV is $80/mo. They are offering me a $20 credit for as long as this lasts. So 25% of my cable cost is already Disney/ESPN, and they have the gall to say that's not "fair rates".Insane greed. t.co/INo3TmBj9N
