I guess you could go to youtubetv.com and sign up for the free trial , watch game, and then cancel.
P.S You may wind up keeping it. I think it is way better than Direct TV

Guessing you cannot receive via an over the air antenna? If you are close enough to NYC, that's possible.
Not sure if Philly stations will allow it.
I would go with a free trial of a streaming service. You may like YouTubeTV. They have been broadcasting multiviews of 3 or more games at once, which is kind of cool.
I figured an antennae worked in most places assuming you’re in a decent distance of a city. There’s this article (paywall) in the Athletic too referring to use of one.
I suppose one could buy one to test it out and see how the signal is and if not strong enough then return it.
From the article:
Antenna
Price: $10-50 one timeFeatures: Limited to broadcast network games
You can get more than 100 college football games this year without cable or streaming, and you don’t need bunny ears on top of the TV. For as low as $10, depending on where you look, you can buy a TV antenna pad, which will get you games on ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC and The CW — the latter will have 13 ACC games for the first time this season. The CW app is also available for free on most streaming TVs and mobile devices. With the Big Ten adding CBS and NBC to its broadcast partners, more games than ever are available on network TV this year
Good, no great, advice. I was a DirecTV customer for nearly two decades. It just too a few years of AT&T to make the service go downhill. YTTV is better than DirecTV, IMO.
Don't know where the poster who asked is located in PA, and maybe if he has some elevation, he can get some good results. We are on the Monmouth/Ocean border, and it is an antenna wasteland.
Not for sports. Still the best at that. But dealing with DirectTV can be a nightmare. I bailed a couple of years ago.
When the promos are over, how much is it for the year? Are there any drawbacks to it? Interested in getting it.
Agree the DirecTV fell apart after AT&T. I had DTV from the very beginning because there wasn't decent cable in my neighborhood back in 1994. I had it all those years until AT&T flew it into the ground. Still the best sport package.
$73/month. Here's a link describing what YTTV offers:
