How to watch South Carolina vs. Furman
South Carolina football (0-1) hosts in-state foe Furman (1-0) in the Gamecocks’ home opener this Saturday, Sept. 9 at 7:30 p.m. with SEC Network Plus and ESPN Plus streaming all of the action.
Viewers with a satellite, cable, or live TV streaming package that already includes the SEC Network, will not need to have an ESPN Plus subscription to watch the game.
Those viewers can watch the game Saturday without any additional charges by simply logging in to the ESPN app on their streaming device, smart TV, or web browser with the username and password from their provider.

The SEC Network (and thus the SEC Network Plus) is available on most major live TV providers including DIRECTV, DISH Network, fuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV, Verizon Fios, Xfinity TV, YouTube TV and more.
Spectrum customers, however, will be impacted by the ongoing negotiations between Charter (Spectrum) and Disney (ESPN) and will not be able to watch the game on SEC Network Plus (unless the situation is resolved by Saturday night).
Those customers will be able to watch the matchup by subscribing to ESPN Plus or by switching to a live TV provider that does have ESPN’s channels.
