How to Watch SMU Mustangs Football Live Online

Written by John O'Connor

Last updated on

You can live stream SMU football on a number of live TV streaming services and no long term contract is required. If your goal is finding a platform to just watch SMU football, Hulu + Live TV is the easy choice because the app seamlessly integrates ESPN+ content, which gives Mustangs fans every SMU game from one app. However, if SMU fans are like most sports fans, they follow more than one team. If you are an SMU fan, but also a Dallas sports fan, we recommend DIRECTV STREAM “Ultimate” as the only package that pairs CBS Sports Network, an important channel for SMU football fans, with Bally Sports Southwest for live streaming Mavericks, Rangers, and Stars games in-market. You can watch the Dallas Cowboys on KDFW, FOX 4 Dallas on both DIRECTV STREAM and Hulu.
