You can live stream Utah Football this season, their first in the Big 12 Conference, on several different streaming services, but Fubo, with its combination of ESPN, ESPN2, FS1, and FOX is the best option.

NBA fans in Utah can also watch Jazz games in-market on Fubo.

The Utes are now part of the Big 12, which means their games will air on ESPN and FOX owned channels. Smaller Utes games will often appear on ESPN2, FS1, or ESPNU.

The tricky thing for PAC-12 football fans is that only two live TV streaming services carry PAC-12 Network, fuboTV and Sling TV, and several Utes games will air on the channel in 2024.

Sling is missing too many channels to be one of our top picks, but Fubo has every channel you need to live-stream the entire 2024 Utah football season, plus AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountains for watching the Jazz.

fuboTV is also a good choice for watching the Broncos.


DIRECTV STREAM “Choice” has all the channels you need to watch Utes football, except for PAC-12 Network. This means some smaller Utah football games won’t be available with DIRECTV STREAM.

However, DIRECTV STREAM “Choice” does offer AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountains for Jazz fans.


Hulu + Live TV comes with the ESPN+ bundle, which gets sports fans out-of-market MLB and NHL, as well as UFC events.

Hulu also carries all the major college football channels, like ABC, CBS, ESPN, and FOX. However, there is no PAC-12 Network, so some Utah football games will be blacked out on Hulu.


YouTube TV is a fun platform for streaming football, but the lack of PAC-12 Network means some Utes games will be off-limits.

New for 2024, YouTube TV is the home of NFL Sunday Ticket, so if the goal is watching out-of-market NFL in addition to Utah football, and you are OK going without the PAC-12 Network games, YouTube TV could make sense for some Utes fans, especially with the bargain pricing on YouTube TV’s 4K plus add-on.


Sling TV Orange + Sports Extra gets you the ESPN family of channels and PAC-12 Network at a good price, but the rest of the important Utah football channels require either an air antenna or an upgrade.

Upgrading to Sling Orange & Blue + Sports Extra will add FS1, but there will still be holes in coverage if you live in Utah.

Yes, Sling carries PAC-12 Network, but getting the big nationally televised PAC-12 football games on Sling TV will be too much of a pain for most Utes fans. Fubo is a better choice for watching Utah football than even the best Sling TV package.
