Some things are critically important while traveling.

Sunday 3rd ranked and undefeated A&M plays LSU at 01:30 Central European time. I am in Central Europe on an extended vacation/ holiday/ self-directed tour/ independent travel and would like to know if anyone knows a cheap easy no nonsense way to see the game.

This could be 1938 all over again!!!

I have used my DirecTV, Amazon Prime and Paramount Apps with a US based VPN IP address to watch programs while overseas. I change the IP location to USA in the VPN app.

See, that's the problem. I dont speak your language. I can do DOS 3.1 if that helps.

What was so great about 1938 for Aggie football? The Aggies were the only team the Horns could beat that year.

I think you can watch on YouTube, but you have to pay.

Try searching YouTube when the game starts; someone is likely streaming it.

We watched a couple of college games this way while we were in Italy last month and back in 2022. The quality was pretty good too.

We have YouTubeTV and a VPN but that would not work for us in Europe for the games because YouTubeTV required us to share our location to steam the games.

If you have Internet, you can follow the play-by-play on espn.com. You won't see the game live, but you will know what's happening.

Try YouTube... seriously I have seen lots of SEC games being streamed on there by someone... is it legal, probably not but it works!

I'm not one to recommend people get a VPN for travel for security reasons, but for a sports fan, I think it's maybe worth the hassle to install and figure out.

Hahah... yeah... Seriously though, the big commercial VPNs that advertise surely make it fairly straightforward, even for the technologically challenged. Nord VPN and Surfshark are the brands that are lodged in my brain from advertising that you could maybe look at. You'd hope their instructions would be geared towards someone like yourself.

It would open up a whole new world of sports viewing in Hungary for you, as well as watching your team.

The game is the ABC prime time game so I think it will be streamed on ESPN+.

  1. Subscribe to NordVPNand select a US location
  2. Subcribe to ESPN+

That should work. And it’s easy.

Agree, Nord VPN is fast and easy. There is a ‘free trial’ if that helps.

Used it in France and Italy with no problem. Unfortunately was watching the NY Giants…

My husband stayed up all night to watch the Superbowl when we were in Cadiz, Spain. My only recommendation is to have a good supply of snacks! ; )

Pizza!

I'm curious, what good is a VPN without a subscription that shows the game? I have a US IP address. I just dint want to buy a subscription. They are expensive. Crazy expensive.

I was thinking to have my daughter in the states put her cell phone in front of her TV and do a WhatsApp video call. Except she lives in DC and i doubt it going to be aired there.

I may have to fly home.
