Fancred
"Your sports identity"
Think of this app as the ultimate fan profile: connect with other fans, teams and media, also archive your favorite moments.
You can also stream live from the game, which is AWESOME for us sitting on our couch at home, really wondering what the view is like up close.
Add a personal profile that captures everything you do as a sports fan (photos, notes, game-log, articles, friends you're with) and this could be a must-have app for fans that have season tix.

Samsung Milk Music (sports genre)
Sure, at first glance this looks like another music player for your phone. Samsung Milk Music is certainly not new. BUT, Samsung Milk Music actually began streaming college football games this month! THAT is new.
This is totally rad. You're on the road in CA and want to listen to the Ohio State game? No problem!
Driving north of the Mason Dixon and need to hear Nick Saban nearly blow another aneurysm? Go right ahead!
A quick overview of Samsung Milk Music’s Sports genre -
- Samsung Milk Music is the only service to pair a high volume of schools and content with a full feature set for sports listeners.
- During the 2015 NCAA football season, Samsung Milk Music will live stream the home and away team’s local broadcasts of 900 college football games and conference championships from 122 universities.
- When the NCAA basketball season tips off in November, Samsung Milk Music will live stream more than 3,000 men’s college basketball games from 137 teams.
- Live stream information for each game will appear on the dial once the pre-show has begun, until the post-show has been completed. A list of the day’s live streams can be found in the Sports Guide located in the app’s main menu.

Sicksports
This is a sports app that promises to cut through all the clutter and deliver to you the hottest trending sports content, catered specifically to what you like.
An algorithm curates content (sounds way fancy, huh?) and scores it according to social media popularity and rankings from quality sources. Basically think of it as a personal sports Reddit on your phone.
