Canes fans are pretty upset about losing top level WR talent like Jeremiah Smith from their backyard in South Florida to Brian Hartline and Ohio State.
Nonetheless, with Mario Cristobal brining in two 5-star offensive tackles in the 2024 recruiting class, there is new buzz surrounding the Canes. Fans of “The U” will want to tune in to watch all the action and there are several options for watching Miami Hurricane football without cable. In this Miami football viewing guide, I will break down the best choices for watching ACC football, and also recommend streaming services that complement Canes coverage with Heat, Dolphins, and Marlins games.

Important channels
ACC football is broadcast on ABC, CBS Sports Network, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, and the ACC Network. ACC football TV channels are a bit more complicated than some leagues due to the ACC on Regional Sports Networks program which allows for some TV inventory of ACC football games to air on local regional sports networks.

Our top picks
Although it’s pricey, some Miami Hurricane football fans will want to consider subscribing to DIRECTV STREAM “Choice” in order to get access to local MLB, NHL, and NBA action in addition to ACC football.
DIRECTV STREAM carries all the channels you need to watch ACC football and is the only live TV streaming service that broadcasts Bally Sports Florida and Bally Sports Sun, the regional sports networks that carry teams like the Heat and Marlins for fans in South Florida.
fubooTV is one of our favorites for streaming football, both pro and college. The platform carries all the channels you need to stream NFL games, as well as ACC football. An upgrade to the “Sports Lite” package is required if you want access to ESPNU, which is a good add-on for Canes fans. For example, in the 2021 season, the Miami vs. Appalachian State game was on ESPNU exclusively.
Although I consider it to be a bit of a teaser rate because of low DVR storage without an upgrade, Hulu + Live TV carries all of the important ACC football channels in the base package, including ESPNU and ACC Network.
Hulu + Live TV is offered in a bundle that features Disney+ and ESPN+. The ESPN+ programming is seamlessly integrated into the Hulu interface, but the Disney+ programming requires a separate login, which some users won’t like. Hulu’s ESPN+ add-on will allow Miami MMA fans to watch their local fighter Jorge Masvidal, although UFC PPV will still require an additional charge over and above the cost of the Hulu subscription.
I want to recommend Sling Orange + Sports Extra more to ACC fans, but the major drawback is the lack of ABC, which will make it impossible to stream some of Miami’s big games. For example, in the 2021 season, Canes fans wouldn’t have been able to watch the season opener against Alabama with Sling. It is possible to order an air antenna to get local channels on Sling, but this will be too much of a hassle for many fans.
Although a Google account is required to sign-up, YouTube TV is a great pick for watching the Canes and Dolphins. The platform carries all the channels you need to live stream Miami Hurricanes football, as well as unlimited DVR storage in the base package. YouTube TV features a mobile only integration with NFL.com fantasy football teams that allows stats to be tracked in real time.
