Saturday Night Lights: USC vs. Notre Dame Rekindles College Football’s Most Storied Rivalries
The Experience Fans Have Wanted for Years
College fans have long wished they could watch their favorite team on TV while hearing the voices they trust most. This fall, that wish becomes reality. Homestream, a mobile app that automatically syncs a team’s local radio broadcast to the live national or regional televised game, launches at Duke, Auburn and Georgia Tech for football and expands to all three men’s basketball programs for every televised game during the 2026–27 season.
“For many fans, nothing beats hearing their hometown announcers – the voices who go to practice, travel to every game, and ride every high and low right alongside them,” said Steve Hasty, CEO of Homestream. “Our live synchronization technology removes the guesswork, aligning the radio call to the TV picture automatically. Duke, Auburn and Georgia Tech are just the beginning – our goal is to give every fanbase in college sports the same experience: your team, your announcers, perfectly synced.”
How Homestream Works
The app is designed for simplicity. Much like depositing a check with a phone, a fan points their device at the TV. Homestream instantly recognizes the exact moment of the game and syncs the radio call to the picture. Fans can then send the audio to a Bluetooth speaker and enjoy the hometown broadcast from the Blue Devil Sports Network, Auburn Sports Network or the Georgia Tech Sports Network.
The Homestream app is available now in the Apple and Google Play stores.
Subscription Options Built for Superfans
Homestream offers flexible pricing for fans who want their team’s voices every week. Options include:
• Full football or basketball season packages for $79.99 • Combined football and basketball packages for $129.99 • A la carte marquee games for $9.99
Depending on the sport, the full‑season price averages between $3 and $6 per game.
Partnerships Across College Athletics
Homestream’s launch is supported by agreements with each school’s multimedia rights partner. Learfield powers Duke and the Blue Devil Sports Network, Playfly Sports supports Auburn and the Auburn Sports Network, and Legends provides access for Georgia Tech and the Georgia Tech Sports Network. With all three major collegiate rightsholders participating, Homestream enters the market with broad industry backing.
“Homestream is a fantastic companion app for dedicated fans that want to enhance their game broadcast experience,” said Tom Boman, Vice President, Broadcast Operations, Learfield. “The feedback we have received from users has been terrific regarding its ease of use and reliability.”
Built for the Fans Who Live College Sports
Homestream is designed for superfans — the season‑ticket holders, message‑board regulars and team blog devotees who plan their week around gameday. Once a fan selects their team, the entire app experience transforms into that school’s colors and marks, creating a personalized environment that feels familiar and authentic.
The company tested the experience with hundreds of fans during the past college basketball season, drawing listeners from coast to coast. The response was immediate, with many saying Homestream completely changed how they watch their team.
