Iowa Hawkeyes — Big Ten Conference. Tonight's channel below, plus the full 2026-27 schedule with the network for every game that has one.
None of Iowa's 12 scheduled 2026-27 games has a TV channel attached yet. That is normal for college basketball this early: the conferences and their network partners set TV windows through the autumn and then week by week once conference play starts, so most of a schedule sits unassigned until a few weeks out. This page is rebuilt daily from ESPN's feed, so each game's channel appears here as soon as it exists, and the live block above shows tonight's channel.
All 12 games ESPN has scheduled so far — 8 home, 1 away, 3 at neutral sites. Channels are shown where a broadcast has been assigned as of 2026-09-15; the rest fill in through the season, and this table is rebuilt daily.

Most Iowa games will land on the ESPN channels, a conference network or a conference streaming tier once the windows are set. Fubo carries ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPNews, CBS Sports Network, ACC Network, SEC Network, Big Ten Network, FS1, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, and its plans include ESPN Unlimited, which covers the ESPN direct-to-consumer games a lot of college basketball ends up on. What it does not carry is TNT, TBS or truTV, which matters in March rather than in January.

ESPN currently lists 12 2026-27 games for Iowa Hawkeyes, opening at home against Lipscomb Bisons on Nov 3. 8 are at home, 1 on the road and 3 at neutral sites. The full schedule is on this page and is rebuilt daily as games are added.
Only in the NCAA tournament. The regular season runs on the ESPN channels, the conference networks, CBS, FOX and the conference streaming tiers; TNT, TBS and truTV carry their share of March Madness alongside CBS. Fubo carries CBS and none of the three Turner channels, so a live-TV plan reaches about half the bracket. This page says which it is for each game as soon as the network is assigned.
