We'll find out when the two teams meet; kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday and the game airs on ABC and will stream on ESPN unlimited.
Here's how to watch the Georgia vs. Alabama game and what to know about how to watch the entire NCAA football season.

How to watch the Georgia Bulldogs vs. Alabama Crimson Tide:
Date: Saturday, September 27
Time: 7:30 p.m. ET
TV Channel: ABC, ESPN3
Streaming: ESPN unlimited, DirecTV, Fubo, and more
Where to watch the Georgia vs. Alabama game on TV:
You can watch coverage of this week's Georgia vs. Alabama game starting at 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday.
Where to watch the Georgia vs. Alabama game without cable:
You can tune into the Georgia vs. Alabama game on ABC as part of ESPN on ABC, and on ESPN3. ABC and ESPN3 are available on streaming platforms including DirecTV, Fubo, and YouTubeTV, but for the most comprehensive college football coverage, you can also watch this game and hundreds more this season on the ESPN App with an ESPN unlimited subscription.
ESPN's new streaming service is divided into two tiers: the ESPN unlimited package and the ESPN select package.
For $29.99, the ESPN unlimited package includes access to all of ESPN's linear networks: ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SECN, ACCN, ESPNews and ESPN Deportes, plus access to programming on ABC, ESPN+, ESPN3, SECN+ and ACCNX. That means fans will get coverage of more than 47,000 live events each year, on-demand replays, original programming and more.
Right now, for a limited time, you can bundle ESPN unlimited with Disney+ and Hulu and pay $29.99/month for 12 months — that's like getting those other services free for a year! Even if you're a current subscriber to Disney+, Hulu or even the bundle, you can still upgrade to this great deal.
Not interested in a bundle? ESPN select (also referred to as ESPN+) is still also an option. For $11.99/month, you can tune in and get exclusive access to events like select NCAA football games, F1 driver cams, simulcasts of certain sports that air on other channels and PPV access to UFC fights.
DirecTV Stream is currently offering its Choice tier (typically $108+/month with fees) for just $72.98 (after fees) for your first month.
DirecTV Stream's Choice tier gets you access to all the usual football suspects: NBC, NFL Network, ESPN, The CW, ABC, CBS and Fox, plus ACC Network, Big Ten Network, SEC Network and plenty more local Regional Sports Networks. (If you want to avoid paying the RSN fees, the Entertainment Tier has plenty of channels you can catch NFL games on too.)
Whichever package you choose, you'll get unlimited Cloud DVR storage and access to ESPN+'s new streaming tier, ESPN unlimited.
The best part is, currently, you can try all this out free for 5 days. So if you're interested in trying out a live TV streaming service for football season, but aren't ready to commit, we recommend starting with DirecTV Stream.
Fubo's new skinny sports bundle, Fubo Sports, includes local broadcast stations owned and operated by ABC, CBS and FOX, plus additional affiliates in select markets, as well as ACC Network, Big 10 Network, CBS Sports Network, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNews, ESPNU, Fox News, FS1, FS2, Fubo Sports Network, ION, NFL Network, SEC Network and Tennis Channel. It also includes free access to ESPN's new ESPN+ unlimited plan. Fubo subscribers get unlimited cloud DVR storage, too.
You can get $10 off your first month, which brings the cost to $45.99; after that, it goes up to $55.99/month.
This new Fubo package has you covered for most nationally broadcast or in-market NFL games, and still leaves you with major savings compared to a traditional cable package.
The platform offers a free trial period, so you can check it out for a few days of the 2025 NFL season and decide if it's right for you this year.
