Peacock is putting its stamp on college football.
If you haven’t noticed it yet, a handful of games have been streaming on NBC’s Peacock network, including many that have been airing exclusively on the platform. This coming weekend, for example, viewers hoping to tune into Ohio State vs. Purdue on Oct. 14 must do so via the Peacock Network. During the weekend of Oct. 7, it was Purdue-Iowa exclusively on Peacock.
Prices for a Peacock subscription are set at $5.99 or $11.99 per month depending on what package you sign up for. Premium plan is $5.99 and has “80,000+ hours of the best in TV, movies, and sports: New & Hit Shows, Films & Originals, LIVE Sports & Events, Current NBC & Bravo Shows, 50+ Always-On Channels,” according to Peacock.com.

In addition to the Peacock-exclusive Ohio State-Purdue game on Oct. 14, the Notre Dame-USC rivalry battle will be streaming on Peacock, in addition to NBC.
