How to stream Auburn vs. Florida and college football’s other must-see Week 6 games

Can Florida contain Auburn’s defensive line? And which version of Michigan will appear versus Iowa?

Critical in-conference matchups dominate the CFB field across the Week 5 docket, including No. 7 Auburn traveling to “The Swamp” to challenge No. 10 Florida in a crucial SEC battle. The steady No. 14 Iowa visits No. 19 Michigan, which had a dominant showing in their 52-0 demolition of Rutgers.

Without question, trench play will be the major key for the Auburn vs. Florida game. Specifically, can the Tigers’ defensive front seven take advantage of the Gators’ woes at the offensive line? Auburn has a bit of the same issue, but their offense isn’t predicated on downfield passing, with freshman QB Bo Nix’s scrambling and effectiveness on designed runs. On the other hand, Florida QB Kyle Trask can be rattled in collapsing pockets.

Michigan has been the country’s most surprising and underwhelming team, especially given the outsized talent and accompanying expectations. Head coach Jim Harbaugh was all but buried in the media following their loss to Wisconsin but rebounded in style by dismantling Rutgers. So which team are the Wolverines? The Hawkeyes will prove a tough test, with QB Nate Stanley arriving as the best signal-caller Michigan, will have faced this season. However, Wolverines quarterback Shea Patterson will have time to survey the field, as Iowa’s inconsistent pass rush leaves a little to be desired. 

Here’s everything you need to know—a full slate of games, network coverage, and how to stream all the action—about Week 6 in college football, which kicks off Friday evening.

College football 2019 schedule: Live stream

The following services, save for ESPN+, offer a one-week free trial and all carry ESPN and FS1. The full schedule of games is below.

1) Sling TV

Sling TV

Sling TV provides two base channel package options, each priced at $25 per month. Sling Orange includes three ESPN channels, while Sling Blue includes sports channels like NFL Network, NBCSN, and local channels. If you’re Team “Why Not Both,” Sling Orange + Blue combines the two for just $40 per month. Sports Extra: Sling Blue ($10 per month) also includes NFL RedZone.

Spanish-speaking viewers have quite a few options. For bilingual families, you might consider the Español: Best of Spanish TV package for either Sling Orange or Sling Blue for 24/7 specialty channel LaLiga TV and beIN SPORTS Connect: Channels 4-9, which features matches from LaLiga, Ligue 1, and Copa del Rey, among others. Both packages cost $5 per month after your free trial. Sling TV Latino is another Spanish-language package for $10 per month, including NBC Universo, History en Español, and—of import to soccer fans—four beIN SPORTS channels. (And choosing Sling TV Latino + Sling Orange for $30 per month gives you access to ESPN Deportes.) For more information, check out our guide to Sling TV channels and our Sling TV review.

For $10 extra per month, you can get NFL RedZone via the Sling Blue Sports Extra package.

How to use AirTV with Sling

AirTV solves one of Sling’s biggest problems: The inability to receive all of your local channels. By purchasing a basic AirTV for $79.99 or the AirTV Player for $119.99, you can merge those local channels into your Sling TV (or on your mobile device if you have the basic AirTV). As the Daily Dot wrote in its AirTV review, “It’s practically magic.”

The basic AirTV is a dual-tuner streaming device, while the AirTV Player is basically an upgraded Chromecast that has Netflix preinstalled. You’ll still need to own an HD antenna because even though AirTV gets you access to your local channels, it doesn’t actually physically show them to you.

But AirTV—which has no monthly fee—serves to strengthen one of Sling’s biggest weaknesses compared to other live streaming services like Hulu with Live TV, YouTube TV, and PlayStation Vue. All those services have plenty of local channels. While select NFL and college football games (on Fox, FS1, and FS2) are no longer on Sling, you can still catch Fox games with AirTV.
