Hulu and Irish games

[Irish8248]

Has anyone tried ditching cable and using Hulu to watch live ND games? If so, good or bad choice? Not worried aboutthe cost savings more along the lines of is it live, is the picture quality as good as my tv, and are there any lags or delays that annoy the shit out of you?

Any help is appreciated.

I have Sling TV and it's otherwise been great except for live sports. Streaming services usually lag about a minute behind the live broadcast, which makes it a little annoying during ND games when my group text blows up with reactions to a play I haven't even seen yet. I ended up getting an HD receiver specifically so I could watch ND games in real time.

I just dumped cable and went to Hulu Live (saving $90 bucks a month). So far it's been great. You just lose the convenient GUIDE but Hulu still has their own version of a guide. It has all the channels that ND would be on - NBC/ESPN/ABC/NBCSN/CBSN so I'm not worried about missing a game.

I've watched a lot of sports on Hulu Live already. Baseball/NBA Finals/World Cup. Zero complaints about picture quality/streaming issues.

biggest issue so far while watching live sports is what meatloaf said about the group text. I've trained myself to not check twitter and group messages until commercials.

Dropped Sling to pick up YouTube TV.

Perfect, thank you!

PS Vue here (on my Amazon Fire TV) - love it.

Also, if you have PS4 and PS Vue, you can watch 3 streams at once now.

I watch online. It is annoying at times because IE will be ahead of my stream so I gotta be careful of checking sometimes.

Yep, I picked up Youtube TV and expect to be able to watch all ND games regardless. Only thing to worry about is if YTT will be picking up the ACC network.
