How to Watch ACC Network With Sling
Whether you live in The Triangle of North Carolina or down in the Sunshine State, you can watch every ACC football matchup without a contract. Here’s how Sling lets you do that.
After decades of mediocrity, the Miami Hurricanes returned to their longtime perch near the top of the college football pecking order last season. Sure, they fell just short of the national championship, but they gave one of the greatest college football teams of all-time a hard-fought game. More importantly, their success reestablished “The U” as a preeminent college football program for the NIL generation.
Other ACC schools like North Carolina (coached by NFL icon Bill Belichick), Virginia, and reigning ACC champions Duke are on the upswing, and we’re less than a decade removed from Clemon’s third national championship season. Sprinkle in a handful of Notre Dame matchups and the ACC looks like it could have more than a few teams competing in the College Football Playoff. If you don’t want to miss a single minute of ACC action this year, you can watch the ACC Network all season long with Sling. Here’s how.

ACC Network is available on Sling with any of the following subscriptions:
Sling Essentials (The budget-friendly option)
- Base plan: Sling Essentials ($19.99/mo)
- Add-on pack: Sports Extra (+$11/mo)
- Total cost: $30.99/mo
- ACC channels included: ACC Network (ACCN), ACCN+, ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU.
This is the most affordable way to get ACC Network. It is built specifically for fans who primarily want ESPN, ACC, and SEC action without paying for general entertainment channels. NOTE: Sling Essentials + Sports Extra does not include games on ACC Network+.
Sling Orange (The standard option)
- Base plan: Sling Orange ($45.99/mo)
- Add-on pack: Orange Sports Extra (+$11/mo)
- Total cost: $56.99/mo
- ACC channels included: ACC Network (ACCN), ACCN+, ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU.
If you want a wider selection of entertainment channels alongside your ACC and ESPN coverage, this is the standard option. Sling Orange + Sports Extra also includes games on ACC Network+.
Sling Orange & Blue (The watch everything option)
- Base plan: Sling Orange & Blue ($60.99/mo)
- Add-on pack: Orange & Blue Sports Extra (+$15/mo)
- Total cost: $75.99/mo
- ACC channels included: ACC Network (ACCN), ACCN+, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, Big Ten Network (BTN), FS1, and FS2.
If you are a multi-conference household and want both the ACC Network and the Big Ten Network, plus ESPN/ESPN2 and local FOX/NBC/ABC (in select markets), you must combine the base plans and get the joint sports add-on. This will also get you top entertainment channels like AMC, HGTV, Food Network, and more.
Sling passes (To watch single games)
- Base plan: 1 Day Pass, 3 Day Pass, and 7 Day Pass (starting at $4.99)
- Add-on pack: Sports Extra (available for $1 with a 1 Day Pass, $2 with a 3 Day Pass, and $3 with a 7 Day Pass)
- Total cost: Starting at $5.99/day
Lastly, you can catch only the biggest games with a 1 Day Pass, 3 Day Pass, or 7 Day Pass to Sling Orange programming. If the game is on ESPN or ESPN2, all you need is a pass; if the game is on ACC Network, ACCN+, or ESPNU, you’ll need to add Sports Extra to your pass, which starts at an additional $1.
