Georgia vs Alabama livestream: How to watch college football Week 5 game online from anywhere

The Georgia vs. Alabama livestream is a massive game between two top 5 teams in Week 5 of the 2024 college football season — and you can watch it tonight from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free!

Week 5 brings us one of the best games of the 2024 season so far. The Georgia Bulldogs, winner of two of the last three college football national championships, head into Tuscaloosa to face off against the Alabama Crimson Tide. The winner of this conference rivalry matchup will almost certainly prove who is the top dog in the SEC this year. 

Georgia are ranked No. 2 in the Associated Press college football poll, behind only the University of Texas. Quarterback Carson Beck, has thrown for 680 yards, seven touchdowns and zero interceptions so far, making him a leading candidate for the Heisman Trophy. If Georgia wants to dominate the perennial championship contenders in Alabama, they’ll need a big effort from Beck.

Meanwhile, Alabama sit at No. 4 in the country and are looking to show Georgia the proverbial college football playoff door. The tandem of quarterback Jalen Milroe and running back Jam Miller have kept the Crimson Tide perfect at 3-0, and they will want to keep their season perfect after this week. Will Alabama keep their record clean, or will Georgia spoil the after-party in Tuscaloosa? Tune in on Saturday to find out. 

Make sure you don’t miss Georgia vs. Alabama, or any of this season’s college football with our 2024 college football livestreams guide. Here’s how to watch the Georgia vs. Alabama livestream from anywhere in the world — and potentially for free.

We’ve tested many different VPN services and our favorite is NordVPN; it offers superb speeds, excellent customer service and a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out first to see if it’s right for you. But you’ve got other VPN options too, so check out our full list of the best VPN services.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we’ve said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you’re in the U.K. and want to view your usual U.S. service, you’d select U.S. from the list. 

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Sling and watch the Georgia vs. Alabama livestream.
