Top picks

fuboTV carries the local CBS affiliate in Baton Rouge, WAFB CBS 9, as well as CBS affiliates across the nation. This gets SEC football fans the SEC Game of the Week, featured night games, and the SEC Championship game.

In addition, ESPN and ESPN2 come in the base package. An upgrade to the “Sports Lite” package is required to access the SEC Network, but most of LSU’s games will be on ESPN or CBS, so Tiger fans may not need to spend the extra money. We list fuboTV as our top pick here in part based on the excellent user experience and ease of setup. If you need to get a game on fast, fuboTV is a great choice.

fuboTV is also our top pick for watching the Saints.


Hulu + Live TV gets LSU fans WAFB, which is the local CBS affiliate in Baton Rouge, as well as CBS affiliates nationwide.

The base package offers unlimited DVR storage, SEC Network is included, and the ESPN+ bundle offers a great lineup of college football, out-of-market NHL and MLB, as well as UFC events. Louisiana is home to two of the UFC’s all time greats, Daniel Cormier and Dustin “the Diamond” Porier, so MMA interest in the region is high.

In addition, Hulu + Live TV offers full local coverage of Saints games for fans in NOLA.


YouTube TV checks all the boxes for watching LSU Tiger football, as well as New Orleans Saints games.

A Google account is required to sign up, but it’s worth the extra step for all of the innovative features YouTube TV has built into the platform.


Although you can’t get access to CBS on Sling TV without an air antenna, Sling Orange plus Sports Extra gives fans access to ESPN, ESPN2, and SEC Network at a great price.

Pair Sling TV with Paramount+ for CBS access, including WAFB in Baton Rouge, and you will still be saving money.

This is the last season Paramount+ will carry SEC football, including the SEC Championship game.

Paramount+ carries local CBS affiliates in each market nationwide, but no ESPN, ESPN2 or SEC Network.

However, the price will be too attractive to pass up for many fans, especially since the NFL on CBS lineup offers a full solution for streaming the NFL in AFC markets.
