Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another one of my tech adventures. So, the other day, I was trying to catch a Tennessee Volunteers game. I’m a huge college football fan, you know, and supporting the Volunteers is my thing. But the real struggle began when I couldn’t figure out what channel the game was on. It’s 2024, and you’d think finding a football game would be easy, right? Wrong!
So, I grabbed my phone and started Googling like a madman. I typed in “what channel is Tennessee football,” hoping for a quick answer. First few results were all over the place. It seems like depending on who they’re playing and what week it is, the channel changes. One result said ABC, another mentioned the SEC Network, and there was even something about ESPN. I mean, come on, can we just stick to one channel, please?

I dug a bit deeper and found out that for national broadcasts, ABC is often the go-to. That’s cool, but then there’s this thing called the SEC Network for some games. It’s like they’re trying to make it a scavenger hunt to find your game. I even saw that some playoff and bowl games are on ESPN, and if you really want to get fancy, there’s ESPN Plus for certain matchups. Seriously, who can keep up with all this?
Then, I stumbled upon some specific game info. One game against Missouri was supposed to be on CBS, and they said I could stream it on Paramount+ or Fubo. Another game, this time against Vanderbilt, was going to be on ABC, and the commentators were going to be Dave Pasch and Dusty. I mean, who are these guys? I just want to watch the game!
I also found that the game against Arkansas is going to be on ABC as well, with Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit doing the commentary. Okay, at least that’s some familiar names, but still, it’s another channel to remember. And get this, the first round of the CFP against Ohio State? You guessed it, ABC again, but also ESPN+. It’s like a maze of channels and streaming services.
So, after all this searching and confusion, I finally pieced together where I might find the games. Here’s the lowdown:
- For most nationally televised games, ABC seems to be the main channel.
- SEC Network is a big one for some of the conference games.
- ESPN and ESPN Plus pop up for playoffs, bowl games, and some special matchups.
- Sometimes, games are even on CBS, and you can stream them on Paramount+ or Fubo.
It’s a bit of a headache, but I guess that’s the price we pay for being fans in the modern age. Anyway, I thought I’d share my little adventure with you all. Maybe it’ll save you some time next time you’re trying to catch a Volunteers game. Keep it real, folks, and go Volunteers!
