The University of North Carolina’s baseball squad is set to host a best‑of‑three NCAA Super Regional against the University of Southern California at Boshamer Stadium this weekend. The series carries more than local pride; the champion earns a ticket to the Men’s College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, where the nation’s top eight teams will compete for the championship.
Fans who want to follow the action have several ways to watch. The games will be televised on ESPN and ESPN2, while radio listeners can tune in on 97.9 FM and 1360 AM. For those who have cut the cord, streaming platforms such as YouTube TV, Hulu TV and Sling TV provide access to the same channels.
Streaming Options and Costs
YouTube TV carries all of ESPN’s channels for $83 per month, making it the most comprehensive choice for viewers who want every broadcast. Hulu TV also includes ESPN and ESPN2 in its $89 monthly package, though it does not offer NBA TV or the NFL RedZone channel. Sling TV presents the lowest‑cost route, with the Orange package priced at $46 per month; however, the Blue tier does not include ESPN or ESPN2, limiting its usefulness for this particular broadcast.
Beyond the immediate stakes, the Super Regional represents a pivotal moment for both programs. A win would mark a significant milestone for the Tar Heels, who have built a strong home‑field advantage at Boshamer Stadium, while the Trojans aim to extend their season and chase a historic run to Omaha. The outcome will shape the narrative of the national tournament and set the tone for the upcoming College World Series.
