Michigan football streaming in 2026 — every Wolverines game live
Big Ten football lives on FOX, NBC, CBS, Peacock, and BTN in 2026. Here’s where every Michigan game airs.
TL;DR: Michigan football streaming in 2026 splits across the Big Ten’s broadcaster partners: FOX (Big Noon Saturday + select primetime), NBC + Peacock (Saturday primetime + streaming-exclusive), CBS (select late-window games), and Big Ten Network (the conference-specific slate). Cheapest legitimate full-coverage path: Slam Dunk Zone at $39.95/mo flat — carries FOX, NBC, CBS, and Big Ten Network linear feeds in one membership. Add Peacock Premium ($7.99/mo) for Peacock streaming-exclusive games. Total: $47.94/mo for full Wolverines coverage. About $50/mo less than YouTube TV ($82.99) + Peacock ($7.99) + ESPN+ ($11.99) = $102.97/mo.
Where Michigan games actually air in 2026
The Big Ten’s broadcast deal puts Michigan on multiple networks per season:
- FOX (broadcast network) + FS1: Big Noon Saturday slot (most marquee Michigan home games) + select 3:30pm ET windows.
- NBC (broadcast network) + Peacock: Saturday primetime games + Peacock streaming-exclusives (1-2 Michigan games per season typically).
- CBS (broadcast network): Select late-window CFB games as part of the post-2024 Big Ten/CBS deal.
- Big Ten Network: The conference-specific slate — early-season tune-ups + Michigan road games against lower-tier opponents.
