How to watch the Terrapins vs. Crimson Tide game today
No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 8 Maryland begins tonight at 9:40 p.m. ET. You can catch the Alabama vs. Maryland showdown over on TBS. Our recommendation for watching tonight’s game? Sling TV.
Sling Orange & Blue starts at just $30 for your first month and will get you access to games on TBS, TNT, truTV and ESPN. It also gives you 50 hours of DVR (Cloud) storage so you can record any games you miss or watch good games back, and you can watch on up to three devices (so you could hypothetically share this subscription with everyone else in your bracket pool). The best part of Sling? there’s no contract or long-term commitments. Cancel whenever you want — even if that’s right after your team loses!
Notably, it won’t get you games on CBS, so you’ll need access to your local CBS channel through a digital TV antenna or a Paramount+ subscription to be fully covered for the 2023 tournament. Sling TV also offers NBA TV through its Sports add-on. For $11 extra each month, you can get NBA TV, NHL Network, MLB Network, Tennis Channel and more.
