Wolverines vs. Huskies live stream: Watch the College Football Playoff

The University of Washington Huskies face the University of Michigan Wolverines in this year’s College Football Playoff Championship. Both teams are undefeated, but both had close wins in the playoff semi finals, which speaks to the level of skill displayed across NCAA football this year. Since 1953, the Huskies and the Wolverines have met 13 times. The Wolverines have won eight of those matchups. Will the Huskies close the gap, or will the Wolverines widen it?

The College Football Playoff Championship is at 7:30 p.m. ET today, and it will be broadcast on ESPN. Here are some of the best ways to live stream the game online.

How to watch the College Football Playoff Championship on Sling TV

Our recommendation for watching tonight’s game is Sling TV. That’s because Sling TV currently has the best deal we’ve ever seen from them. You can get Sling TV Orange, the package that contains all of the ESPN channels, for just $15 right now, down from $40. That’s a $25 discount on your first month. Unfortunately there is no Sling TV free trial, but this is pretty darn close. After tonight’s game is over you’ll be able to watch tons more sports, like NBA games, since the Orange package contains TBS and TNT as well.

While we recommend shelling out $15 for a month of Sling TV, there are a few ways to watch the game online completely free. The game is on ESPN, and most of the online cable replacing services have it. One of the big ones is YouTube TV, which currently has a 21-day free trial. So if you sign up for YouTube TV right now, you can watch this game entirely free and cancel right afterward. We recommend Sling TV over YouTube TV overall because it’s cheaper and more customizable, but if all you care about is this one game, grab the free trial.

Watch the College Football Playoff Championship from anywhere in the world with a VPN

If you’re not in the U.S., it can be tricky to watch American college sports. Thankfully modern technology will let you convince your computer you’re anywhere in the world. Just grab a VPN, then watch the National Championship at one of the services above. We recommend NordVPN, since it’s reliable and still on sale from the holidays. If you commit to a two-year plan, you’ll pay just $3 per month.

This Amazon Prime crime show just got a second season — before it even debuts
Amazon Prime Video is betting on this new series

In an era when more and more studios and streaming services are cutting costs, it can be surprising to see a studio be so confident in a property that they give it multiple seasons before a single episode has aired. In the case of Amazon Prime Video's new series, Cross, though, that's exactly what happened.

The show, which is based on James Patterson's best-selling novels about a detective and forensic pathologist who analyzes the minds of killers as he works to catch them, has been renewed for a second season before its first season has premiered. The show stars Aldis Hodge as Alex Cross and also stars Ryan Eggold, Isaiah Mustafa, Alona Tal, Johnny Ray Gill, Eloise Mumford and Siobhan Murphy.

Aston Martin Residences Miami: Limited availability, luxe interior, and 0 wheels
You can now live in an Aston Martin
Aston Martin's Miami Residences

The name Aston Martin may make you think of speed or spying, but it’s styling that’s always set the brand apart from its competitors. While many manufacturers can go a bit barebones with their performance models, Aston Martin still somehow includes a truly luxurious interior with everything it builds. If you want to spend your life inside an Aston, you now can—sort of. The British car maker has decided to turn its hand to construction and now has a condo building in Miami.

A total of 391 Aston Martin condominiums have been built inside a 66-story building situated where the Miami River meets the Biscayne Bay. The total number of condos is about on par with one of Aston’s limited-run cars. Aston claims its sail-shaped condo building is the tallest all-residential structure you’ll find south of New York City.
