ATHENS — Kirby Smart understands what Georgia fans are going through, as he too is impacted by the ongoing YouTube TV-ESPN dispute.

“I worry more about it when I get home, and I can’t watch it, so I have to find ways around it,” Smart said. “But that’s what most people will have to do, I guess, until they figure it out.”

For the third straight weekend, YouTube TV subscribers will be unable to watch games on the Disney family of networks, which includes ABC.

Georgia is set to take on Texas on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. on ABC.

That means Georgia fans with YouTube TV will once again have to find an alternative way to watch their favorite team.

How can I watch Georgia football-Texas if I have YouTube TV?

The Georgia-Texas game will be streamed on the WatchESPN app (subscription required).

The game will not be carried on YouTube TV because of an ongoing distribution dispute between Disney and Google. If that is your television provider, you should make alternate plans to watch the game.

Fubo TV is offering a free 7-day trial, which will grant viewers access to the Georgia-Texas game.

DirecTV also has a free 5-day trial, which would get Georgia fans through this weekend’s game against Texas.

Additionally, Sling TV, which will carry the game, has a day pass for $4.99.
