Where Notre Dame games air in 2026-27

Of Notre Dame's 30 scheduled 2026-27 games, 27 have a channel so far: 1 game airs on broadcast TV, 2 are on the ESPN channels, 15 need a conference network, 7 stream only, never appearing in a channel guide at all and 2 are on another carrier. The other 3 games have no channel yet — college basketball windows are assigned by the conferences and networks through the season, and this page updates daily as they land.

The part that catches people out: 7 games on ACCNX are not on television. No cable package and no channel number will find them — they are streamed only.

Not on Fubo, or varies by market: CW (2 games). We won't tell you a plan covers a channel when it doesn't, and local broadcast availability depends on your ZIP, which Fubo confirms at signup.

Who does Notre Dame play in 2026-27?

ESPN currently lists 30 2026-27 games for Notre Dame Fighting Irish, opening against Villanova Wildcats at a neutral site on Nov 1. 19 are at home, 9 on the road and 2 at neutral sites. The full schedule is on this page and is rebuilt daily as games are added.

Is the Notre Dame game on TNT, TBS or truTV?

Not so far. TNT Sports carries some regular-season college basketball and its share of March Madness alongside CBS, but none of Notre Dame's games with a channel assigned is on TNT, TBS or truTV yet. Fubo carries CBS and none of the three Turner channels, so a Fubo plan reaches about half the bracket; YouTube TV carries all three. This page names the channel for every game as soon as it is assigned.
