Important Akron football channels
Based on current TV contracts with CBS Sports Network and ESPN, most MAC games, including Akron games, will air on ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN+, and CBS Sports Network. Early in the season, when Akron faces an ACC, SEC, Big 10, or PAC-12 opponent, the game will often appear on that conference’s network, such as Big 10 Network or ACC Network. In the channel comparison table below, I have also included the live TV streaming services that carry Bally Sports Great Lakes and Bally Sports Ohio, the regional sports networks that broadcast local MLB, NBA, and NHL action to sports fans in Ohio.

With ESPN+, Akron football fans get about 4 games per season at a low price. There is good value here, especially if you are a Stipe Miocic and UFC fan.
Sling, with its lack of major local channels in most markets, is not a complete solution for watching the NFL, and will only get Zips fans about half of the team’s games. Sling lacks CBS Sports Network, ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC in most households. Pair Sling with ESPN+ for better coverage.
