You, a Wolverine with Woes: How to Watch the Michigan Game on Hulu (Because Cable is So Last Season)
Ah, college football season. A time for crisp air, questionable fashion choices (looking at you, maize and blue striped fanny pack guy), and the eternal struggle: how to watch the Michigan Wolverines dominate... or, you know, participate in a game.
Fear not, fellow maize and blue brethren! Because in this age of chunky smartphones and questionable life choices (admit it, you did rewatch that "All You Need is Balls" motivational speech), cable is as relevant as dial-up internet. This is your guide to watching the Michigan game on the glorious platform known as Hulu, home to both burning desires (because, hello, "The Handmaid's Tale") and burning touchdowns (well, kind of).
But First, a Disclaimer (Because Lawyers Are Fun)
Before we dive in, a word to the wise: not all Michigan games are created equal. Depending on the fickle hand of the TV gods (and the Big Ten conference schedule), the game might be on a channel that requires the Hulu with Live TV add-on. Don't worry, though, we'll cover both scenarios. Now, on to the glorious technical stuff!
Scenario 1: You're a Die-Hard Hulu OG (and the Game is on Regular Hulu)
High fives all around! This is the easiest situation. Here's what you do:
- Fire up that Hulu app. Because, let's face it, you probably have it open anyway (admit it, you're curious about the new season of "Bachelor in Paradise").
- Navigate to the glorious world of "Live TV" (if it's available). But if the game isn't there, fear not! Move on to step three, champion.
- Search for the game. Type in "Michigan Wolverines" or browse the handy dandy "Sports" section. Because Hulu is your friend, it'll point you in the right direction.
- Settle in and cheer (or cry, depending on the opponent). Just remember to mute the commercials so you don't get tempted by that ShamWow deal (we've all been there).
Scenario 2: You Need Hulu with Live TV (Because Adulting is Expensive)
Alright, so you gotta pony up a few extra bucks. But hey, at least you get way more channels than your parents' basic cable package ever offered (RIP MTV's The Real World). Here's the drill:
- Consider the cost of missing the game. Is your mental well-being worth a few extra bucks a month? We rest our case.
- Sign up for Hulu with Live TV. It's a pretty straightforward process, even for those of us who still haven't figured out how to fold a fitted sheet.
- Follow steps 2-4 from Scenario 1. You're a pro now, baby!
Bonus Tip: Download the App (Because We All Have Places to Be)
Stuck at work (or, ahem, "working from home") and desperate to catch the game? There's an app for that! Download the Hulu app on your phone or tablet and stream the game wherever you roam. Just be sure you have a decent internet connection, unless you enjoy pixelated misery.
And There You Have It!
Now you, my friend, are equipped to cheer on the Wolverines from the comfort of your couch (or office chair, no judgment). So grab some snacks, settle in, and get ready for another exciting season of Michigan football. Go Blue!
