Watch College Football Playoff National Championship 2026 live streams as the five-time NCAA champion Miami Hurricanes look to finally inflict a defeat on championship debutants Indiana Hoosiers. Below we have information on how to watch this year’s college football final from anywhere in the world with details on worldwide TV channels, TV stations and where you can see them for FREE.
Having already defeated defending national champions Ohio earlier in the playoffs, Miami has a 100th anniversary year to remember. And it was only made even more memorable when they pushed past Ole Miss in the Fiesta Bowl. Carson Beck was the hero of the moment, running over for the scramble touchdown with just 18 seconds left on the clock. Now he and the Hurricanes must go to the championship in their own home – Florida’s Hard Rock Stadium.
However, Curt Cignetti’s Indiana Hoosiers look absolutely indestructible as they prepare for their first ever national championship game. If there was any notion that nerves played a factor in their semifinal against Oregon, Fernando Mendoza and co quelled them in style. They pulled off a 56-22 Peach Bowl demolition job, and you get the feeling that taking on the Florida Hurricanes won’t phase this group of young men one bit.
