Okay so I cut cable. I have espn+ for the Big XII network and want to know the best [cheapest and easiest] way to get regular ESPN for the few games we have on those channels.
Should be able to stream normal ESPN programming on the ESPN app if you pay for ESPN+... I could be wrong, but believe that's the case.Okay so I cut cable.

Which makes me wonder, why can’t you get regular ESPN? Or even the option to pay extra for it?I don't believe that is the case. If you subscribe to ESPN+ alone, you do not get regular ESPN.
If you get subscribe to ESPN through your cable/dish/youtubetv/hulu etc then you can get ESPN regular as part of your ESPN+ subscription
ESPN will probably get there in a few years with a direct to consumer model. But for now, I suspect ESPN's agreements with cable and streaming platforms prevents them from going direct.Which makes me wonder, why can’t you get regular ESPN? Or even the option to pay extra for it?
I ended up after the free month of YouTube TV using them. Great options and only $78, then added espn plus split with the in laws!Do a free trial with Youtube TV. Then a free trial with Fubo. Then a free trial with Sling. Then a free trial with Hulu.
This is the way to go and I did the same. Settled eventually on YouTube TV and haven't looked back.Do a free trial with Youtube TV. Then a free trial with Fubo. Then a free trial with Sling. Then a free trial with Hulu.
I don't believe mothership ESPN is included in Hulu basicSince you are already paying for ESPN+, you could switch to the Disney bundle which includes Hulu, Disney+, and Espn+ for about $15 per month.
Hulu has ESPN and just about anything else you used to get on cable
