Where Providence games air in 2026-27

Of Providence's 30 scheduled 2026-27 games, 29 have a channel so far: 2 games air on broadcast TV, 1 is on the ESPN channels, 9 need a conference network, 3 are on TNT, TBS or truTV and 14 stream only, never appearing in a channel guide at all. The other 1 game has 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: 14 games on Peacock / ESPN+ are not on television. No cable package and no channel number will find them — they are streamed only.

How to watch Providence basketball without cable

Providence games air on FS1, FOX, ESPNU, all of which Fubo carries. The 14 games that stream on Peacock / ESPN+ are not a TV channel at all — Fubo's plans include ESPN Unlimited, which covers the ESPN+ side of that. The 3 games on TNT, TBS or truTV are the exception: Fubo does not carry those channels, and YouTube TV carries all three.

Not on Fubo, or varies by market: truTV (2 games), TNT (1 game). 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.
