The Oklahoma Sooners are attempting to snag their fourth consecutive win at the Women's College World Series this year, but the Texas Longhorns are proving to be worthy adversaries. The teams meet again tonight for the second (and possibly last) game of the finals. Below, we'll show you how to watch the Women's College World Series finals from home.
Oklahoma and Texas kicked off the finals yesterday with a game that ended in an 8-3 victory for Oklahoma. The World Series finals are the best of three games, so if Oklahoma pulls off another win tonight, they'll be champions for the fourth time in a row. But if Texas wins, the two teams will head to a tie-breaking Game 3 on Friday night.
Although Oklahoma has become the undeniable leader of NCAA Division 1 softball, Texas has put up a good fight this year. Texas was even the top-seeded team headed into the tournament, with Oklahoma trailing close behind at no. 2. Texas easily defeated Stanford in the semi-finals, but Florida beat Oklahoma and forced the two teams into Game 12, which saw Oklahoma narrowly win 6-5.
Will Oklahoma be crowned champion once again tonight, or will Texas live to fight another day? You'll have to tune in to find out. Keep reading to learn exactly how to do that.
The Oklahoma vs. Texas game will air on Thursday, June 6 at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN. For those without cable, there are a couple of cord-cutting avenues to explore when it comes to live streaming the game. The cheapest option will be a subscription to ESPN+, which costs $10.99 a month.
If you'd rather try out a live TV package, you can find ESPN on Sling TV and Fubo. For Sling TV, you'll need to opt for Sling Orange to get ESPN, which costs $40 a month. The service is currently offering new users half-off their first month. At $79.99 a month, Fubo is more expensive, but it comes with a one-week free trial and more channels than Sling.
For those who will be traveling outside the US during Game 2 of the Women's College World Series finals, you can try keeping up with your subscriptions via VPN (virtual private network). VPNs are handy ways to change your device's electronic location so that you can still use your usual websites and apps while traveling. Since the services we've outlined require US forms of payment, this recommendation will be best for Americans who are simply traveling abroad and hoping to use their existing subscriptions.
If this sounds like it might be a good fit, we suggest trying out ExpressVPN, a beginner-friendly VPN. ExpressVPN comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so if you find you're having trouble streaming, there are no worries. You can find all of the details in our ExpressVPN review.

Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries, and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
