Ciao! I am in England and have found it difficult to find reliable sources for the games. Hulu and Youtube TV do not work with or without a VPN. The best ways I have found so far are ustvgo.tv and the ESPN Player. For ustvgo.tv all you have to do is get Nord vpn and it will let you stream US tv channels. It isn't perfect, but it works and you don't have to do a bunch of sketchy stuff to your computer. ESPN Player is like the ESPN app and you can pay for it as a stand alone service. The quality is very good and it is reliable. However, a previous poster mentioned that ESPN is banned in Italy so it may not be available for you. You could try setting a VPN to an English server and getting ESPN Player that way. I have also been told that a jailbroken Amazon Firestick will work, but I have not tried that yet. Buona fortuna!

ESPN on ustvgo has always been blocked for me but not the Deuce or ESPNU. I use ************** for games on ESPN. Beware of some ads, my little guy saw something he didn’t need to three years ago

My best guess is your cell phone or laptop or tablet. Although there are some hotels and hotels only that have ESPN on them but you are better off with laptop viewing and seeing the sights of a great city. I guess it will be on at 8pm where you are so it will be a night game. LOL

If you get a trial for a streaming app on your phone, then that might be the easiest way to watch it

you got me :) I'd spend a few days less in Rome to watch the Vols instead. Sadly, my gf doesn't see it that way.

You can do Rome in 2.5 days or 3. It is a great city to tour but at this time of year if you spend more than 3 days there you are missing out on some great places to visit and spend your time. We usually take a Fast moving Train down to the Amalfi Coast and spend a day in Positano. Train to Salerno, Ferry to Positano, Ferry to Sorrento, Train back to Rome. Your GF will love it. One day trip up early back 13 hours later or spend the night. It is one of the most Vertically built cities in the world.

Florence is the best city to tour for history and day trip out of this area is where we will easily spend a week and visit all the cities in the area. I saw Carlos Santana in Concert at San Lucia in 2007 there on by luck.

Lake Como is another adventure as well as you can day trip into Switzerland by train and stop n go type scenario.

Venice is awesome during the week and go to the Bra Bar for sure tell Fabian I said hello.

We go for 21 to 25 days, 7 trips from US alone and months living in Italy and visiting from other countries. We go to Europe Italy is always on the Itinerary.

My opinion is you are going to miss the game. Enjoy your trip.

I'll be in Rome this weekend. Any guidance on where to watch the game? My SO will not be very happy that I am watching the Vols in Rome, Italy, but GO VOLS!

If you're in the services, USTVGO is supposed to be available free. You should be able to watch the game.

No...you're using Volnation to say "Look At Me". I've been to Europe 6x but have never bragged about it on Volnation. Good grief.

Probably because you didn't have a legit question regarding viewing the Vols. You are an experienced traveler, he apparently is not. Stop the judgmentalism and be an encourager.

So you're his defender and spokesperson? Is that a paid position or is it a "Volunteer" one? I stand by my original assertion as to his post. "LOOK AT ME".

You should thank him, since it gave you an excuse to casually mention to everyone you've been there 6x.

I think it's cool that he's going and I think it's cool that you've been there 6x.

Wrong. You missed my point. I'm sure many VN posters have been all over the world and it doesn't make a hill of beans. Who cares? I've been out of town for Vol games before and yet somehow, someway I figure it out. Go Vols

For whatever it's worth, I work for the UN and travel abroad for my job for an average of 1 week a month. I only asked because this is the most important game to me over the past decade or so, and had a faint hope that I could watch with other Vols. I don't really care about your misguided judgment and certainly don't need bragging points from grown men following college sports.
