You can watch a live stream of NBC via Fubo, YouTube TV or DirecTV Stream. All three of these live-TV streaming services include NBC (available live in nearly every market, but it’s worth making sure it’s available in your area before signing up), and all three come with a free trial.

So, as long as you have a credit card, you can sign up for one of these services, watch the game live on your computer, phone or other streaming device and then cancel your subscription before being charged anything.

Note that the Fubo free trial is seven days long, while YouTube TV and DirecTV Stream each give you five days.

As is the case with most games that are televised on NBC, this one will also be simulcast live on Peacock.

There’s no free trial with Peacock, but if you’ve already used up all your free trials for the aforementioned streaming services, then this becomes far and away the cheapest way to watch a live stream of Colorado vs Nebraska. All you need is Peacock Premium, which is currently on sale for just $5 per month for your first four months (and then $8 per month after that).

You can use a virtual private network (VPN) to hide your IP address/location and connect to a digital server in the United States. As such, if you’re abroad, you can connect to a VPN in order to make it look like you’re physically located in the US. This allows you to bypass any location restrictions and stream content that is typically US-only, such as Fubo, YouTube TV, DirecTV Stream or Peacock.

NordVPN is our choice for the top VPN, but you can peruse our rundowns of the best VPN services or the best VPN deals to see some other good alternatives.

This wild new TV mount moves your screen without you touching it
TVs can already adjust their picture and sound without much help from you. Perlegear now wants the physical screen to adapt to you as well.
Indoors, Interior Design, Lamp

TVs have become incredibly smart over the years. They can automatically tweak picture quality, adjust sound for your room, and recommend what you should watch next. Yet once you bolt one to the wall, there’s one decidedly old-fashioned thing about it: it’s staying exactly where you put it.

Perlegear has an interesting solution at IFA 2026. The company is showing off the AX1 Smart Adaptive Mount, a motorized TV mount that detects where you’re watching from and automatically moves the television to a more comfortable height. It’s an idea that sounds a little excessive until you think about how many different ways we use TVs today. You might be sitting on the couch for a movie, standing up for a workout, playing a motion-controlled game, or have kids watching from the floor. The ideal screen position for one isn’t necessarily great for the others.

A 120-inch screen from 8 inches away? XGIMI just made it happen
XGIMI has unveiled its new AURA 3 Series at IFA 2026, led by a 4K projector that can throw a massive 120-inch picture from just 8 inches away.
Indoors, Interior Design, Electronics

Getting a 120-inch screen into your living room usually sounds like a project that requires a lot of space, careful planning, and perhaps a very understanding partner. XGIMI's latest projectors want to make that considerably easier.

Announced at IFA 2026, the new XGIMI AURA 3 Series consists of the AURA 3 Pro and flagship AURA 3 Max. Both are ultra-short-throw (UST) projectors designed to sit close to a wall rather than across the room. With the Max, you can get a 120-inch picture with the projector sitting just 8 inches away. That's already useful if you don't want a projector dangling from your ceiling, but XGIMI has packed in plenty of home theater hardware to make the resulting giant picture worth looking at.
