The Big Ten Network is covering the NCAA Championship for the 16th time, and it will be covered up to 2023. I wanted to subscribe to it, and I found that there are several options I could choose from. Since finance was one of my concerns, I considered every available option.
I realized that Sling is the best for a monthly subscription, and Fubo is the best for 07 days free duration.
| Streaming Service | Package Name | Price Per Month | Yearly Price | Free Trial | |
| Sling | Blue + Sports Extra add-on | $46 | $420 | 07 Days | |
| Fubo | Elite | $79.99 | No Annual Contract | 07 Days | |
| Hulu | Hulu + Live TV | $69.99 | $699 | None | |
| DirecTV Stream | DirecTV Stream Choice | $89.99 | No Annual contract | 05 Days |
DirecTV Stream
Among the streaming services to watch BTN, DirecTV stream is more expensive. Among the 05 packages, the DirecTV Stream Choice is the only package with the BTN. You have to pay $89.99 per month to get that.
DirecTV Stream has a trial period that lets you enjoy any package for up to 05 days. If I had to watch BTN for a couple of days, DirecTV would also be my choice.
Hulu
Hulu is a choice that comes with plenty of entertainment options. But you will have to purchase the Live TV package. The price for that package is $69.99 / month. You get two streaming devices for this package as well.
Fubo TV
Fubo TV has two plans Fubo Pro and Fubo Elite. Both packages include Big Ten Network. The Elite package costs $79.99, and the Elite package costs just $69.99. One of the best features of Fubo TV is on-demand content.
They have about 15,000 content as on-demand content, and hundreds of BTN titles will be there.
Fubo TV has a trial period of 07 days. If 07 days are enough for you, then the 07-day free trial will be the best for you.
I will explain how to enjoy the free trial and save money.

Sling
You must spend $46 per month to get the Blue package, and I found it was the lowest price to watch BTN. It will be the lowest price compared to their other packages in other streaming services. On the blue package, you get 03 devices to be used.
