Rivals Iowa State and Iowa clash in the newest chapter of Cy-Hawk today. While both squads got off to 1-0 starts last week, it was the Hawkeyes’ unexpected offensive outburst that sets them up as slight favorites at Kinnick Stadium today. But as we’ve seen countless times before, it’s impossible to know what to expect when it comes to rivalry games as heated as this one.

If you’re looking for ways to watch college football online without cable, we have everything you need to know to watch Iowa State vs Iowa today.

Is there a free Iowa State vs Iowa live stream?

Since the game is on CBS, essentially all of the best live-stream choices come with a free option. In fact, there are five different ways you can watch Cy-Hawk 2024 live online for free:

Paramount+: As is the case with most games that are televised on CBS, this one will be simulcast on the Paramount+ streaming service. All you need is the “Essential” plan, which is just $8 per month or  currently on sale for $30 for a year. However, if you go with the monthly option, it comes with a seven-day free trial.

Amazon Prime: You can also watch all Paramount+ live and on-demand content through Amazon Prime Channels. This is ultimately the exact same as the above option, except you’ll watch on Amazon’s digital platforms rather than Paramount’s. The price is the same, and it comes with a separate free trial.

Fubo: The “Pro” channel package includes 100-plus live TV channels, including CBS (live in most markets). It comes with a seven-day free trial.

YouTube TV: The “Base Plan” includes CBS (live in most markets) and comes with a five-day free trial.

DirecTV Stream: The “Entertainment” channel package includes CBS (live in most markets) and comes with a five-day free trial.

How to watch the Iowa State vs Iowa live stream from abroad

If you live outside of the United States, or if you’re traveling abroad at the time of the game, you can always use a virtual private network (VPN) in order to access one of the aforementioned options. All of those streaming services are location-restricted to US-only, but a VPN can hide your IP address (and thus, your location). This, in turn, lets you stream otherwise inaccessible content from other countries.

So, you can use a VPN–we recommend NordVPN, which tops our lists of the best VPN services and the best VPN deals–to watch a live stream of Iowa State vs Iowa on Paramount+ (or another streaming service) from practically any country in the world.

Alyssa Goeckner’s The Song Of The Universe explores music as a deep cinematic experience
Featuring 15 songs on the soundtrack, The Song Of The Universe will be told across 20 episodes as part of the first season.
Still from The Song Of The Universe.

Alyssa Goeckner has given nearly two decades to the music industry, working with artists like Steve Aoki and Afrojack, and releasing music under Sony and Universal, among other labels. As a singer, songwriter, producer, director, and original-IP creator, her work has appeared on Billboard charts under the names Miss Palmer and Bishøp over the years. Her next endeavor is her most exciting yet, and it fundamentally shifts how music can transcend the medium and evolve into a cinematic experience with deep visual storytelling.

The Song Of The Universe is the latest project from Bishøp, which keeps music as the central theme of a multi-episode cinematic story that revolves around her as the eponymous character, fighting to restore the balance of light against the forces of darkness.

Dark Matter Season 2’s world without the internet isn’t as dystopian as it sounds
Head, Person, Face

A world without the internet would ordinarily rank pretty low among the alternate realities most people would willingly choose to live in. For Jason Dessen (Joel Edgerton), his wife Daniela (Jennifer Connelly), and their son Charlie, however, it may be exactly what they need. After everything the family has been through, they aren't looking for a better life anymore. They need a life that is harder to find.

Season 2 has put the Dessens in an unusual position. Jason spent most of the first season trying to get back to Daniela and Charlie after Jason2 stole his life, travelling through the Box and encountering more versions of himself along the way. He finally got his family back, only for the danger to follow them. After taking on new identities and moving to another reality, seven months of relative safety ended when another Jason found them.

Amazon Prime Video’s latest trick is natural lip-sync for dubbed audio
At last, translated audio will look natural on the actors' faces. And yeah, AI is involved.
Amazon Prime Video lip-sync technology

I have watched plenty of stuff on streaming platforms where the translated audio doesn't feel natural on the faces of the actors appearing on the screen. It just looks odd and takes away the fun from watching dubbed films and TV shows. I would prefer to watch content with the original audio and see the translated captions, rather than deal with the asynchrony between the audio and facial expressions. Amazon finally has a solution.

The company is launching a new lip-sync technology on Prime Video that will use AI and VFX to sync the lip movement of actors so that they appear to naturally speak the dialog, even if it has been translated and dubbed from another language. The technology is making its debut with the first and second seasons of Maxton Hall, and will also be used when the third season premieres on the platform.
