College football fans can live stream many of the biggest games live on Paramount Plus; just one of many ways for college football fans to watch college football online.

CBS continues to be the home of SEC college football, which means that marquee games featuring Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Arkansas air on the network and subsequently Paramount Plus. Quick FYI though, 2023 is scheduled to be the last season of the SEC on CBS, being replaced by the Big Ten.

In fact, there are going to be a handful of Big Ten games airing on CBS as part of its 2023 schedule, which in turns means that it'll be available to watch on Paramount Plus.

CBS Sports, which is available to live stream on Paramount Plus, also carries games featuring the military academies and more.

Here's what you need to know on how to watch college football on Paramount Plus. (Don't forget you can also watch NFL Games on Paramount Plus too).

How to watch college football on Paramount Plus

Streaming college football games on Paramount Plus is as easy as signing up for the subscription. However, you need to be signed up for Paramount Plus with Showtime, which is the ad-free version of the streaming service and gives you live access to your local CBS channel that'll carry the biggest college football games this season. You can always give it a try first with a seven-day Paramount Plus free trial.

Once you are signed up and logged in to Paramount Plus, to start streaming the games you head over to the Live TV section. Once you find the game for that week, click stream and enjoy the college football action.

While Paramount Plus is available to the UK and other countries outside of the US, anyone outside of the states cannot watch college football via Paramount Plus, as you need access to local CBS stations.
