My YTTV is scheduled to restart in two weeks. But this tempting. At $83/month for YTTV, I can save $50+ a month.

The negatives are:
1) Many of the more interesting CFB games are on ABC and Fox. Just week 1, the sling plan misses out on: Auburn at Baylor, Texas at OSU, Syracuse at Tennessee, Alabama at FSU, LSU at Clemson, Utah at UCLA, and ND at Miami. Some notable bowl games are on ABC and Fox too, but the CFP are on ESPN.
2) MLB playoffs are partially covered. WC games on ABC, ESPN or ESPN2. NLDS and NLCS on TBS. ALDS, ALCS, and WS are on Fox or FS1. Plus, the games are played through out the week, requiring either multiple day passes or a week pass.
3) Most NFL games including playoffs are not covered. But Peacock will have the NBC games (including Super Bowl LX), Paramount+ will have CBS games, and Prime Video covers TNF. So, I think you can cheaply stream all nationally televised games. For paramount+ streaming, I think there are limitations based on locality to meet the local market NFL contracts. But, a decently cheap option to catch most games if you're a fan of an AFC team.

If there was a way to stream ABC and Fox, it would be a no-brainer. Those two channels are holding me back.
