Disney streams College GameDay on X amid blackout | JQJO

With Disney’s channels dark on YouTube TV after a failed renewal, ESPN will stream its popular College GameDay on X via Pat McAfee’s feed and the ESPN mobile app, letting fans watch without a traditional subscription. The move follows a record ninth-week audience: 2.5 million viewers from 9 a.m. to noon and 3.2 million in the final hour. The dispute centers on price, as Google resists Disney’s requested rate hikes and pushes new tiers. YouTube TV says a prolonged outage would trigger a one-time $20 credit.
