How to watch the Oklahoma vs. Iowa State game without cable
This weekend, the undefeated Oklahoma Sooners take on the Iowa State Cyclones in a Big 12 Conference matchup at home. Both teams are coming off big wins last week and looking for another victory.
The Sooners are the favorite to win and extend their streak, but Iowa State's defense won't make it easy on them.
If you can't make it out to the game, here's everything you need to know to watch it all unfold live from home.
Kickoff time and network
The Oklahoma Sooners host the Iowa State Cyclones on Saturday, Sept. 30 at 7 p.m. ET at Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium in Norman, Oklahoma.

The good news is most live TV streamers offer Fox networks, including FS1.
Best streaming services for the Oklahoma vs. Iowa State football game
While Fox doesn't have its own dedicated streaming service, most live TV streaming services include Fox networks in their channel lineups. That means you have a handful of options to choose from to watch the Oklahoma vs. Iowa State football game this weekend. We've done you a favor and rounded up our top picks for the Sooners vs. Cyclones game below. Even better, most of these services will allow you to catch live college football games the whole season with a monthly subscription.
Best overall: YouTube TV
YouTube TV is our top pick for a live college football streaming service for its huge channel selection (which includes FS1), generous introductory offer, and free trial period. In fact, it's also the best way to watch the Iowa State vs. Oklahoma matchup for free. You'll automatically get 20 minutes to watch commitment free, then a free trial for up to 14 days (free trial may vary) before you actually have to pay a dime. That's certainly enough time to watch the game and more. If you decide to keep your subscription after the trial, it'll cost you $54.99/month for three months, then $72.99/month after that.
Runner-up: FuboTV
FuboTV has a less generous seven-day trial, but will still allow you to catch the Oklahoma vs. Iowa State game for free on FS1. Its extensive lineup beats YouTube TV's, but its base cost is also a bit more at $74.99/month. Be sure to cancel before your trial is up if you don't want to be charged full price for the month.
Most affordable: Sling TV (Blue package)
While Sling TV offers a unique setup that lets you tweak your channel lineup to suit your needs, all you'll need for the Oklahoma vs. Iowa State game is the basic package. The Blue package includes Fox networks, including FS1, so you'll only have to pay $20/month for your first month ($40/month thereafter) to watch Saturday's game and any other games broadcast on Fox networks in the next month. Feel free to tweak your plan the following month or cancel if it no longer serves you.
Best deal: Hulu + Live TV
Through Oct. 11, Hulu is running an enticing deal that gives you three months of its live TV service for only $49.99/month instead of the usual $69.99/month. That gives you access to FS1 to watch the Iowa State vs Oklahoma showdown, as well as plenty of other live channels to watch college football throughout the season, and the full streaming library on Hulu, ESPN+, and Disney+. That's a lot of bang for your buck if you sign up before Oct. 11.
