Houston Cougars — Big 12. Today's channel below, plus the full 2026 schedule with the network for every game we have one for.
Of Houston's 12 2026 games, 4 have a channel so far: 1 game airs on broadcast TV, 2 are on the ESPN channels and 1 streams only, never appearing in a channel guide at all. The remaining 8 games have no channel assigned yet; college windows are set about twelve days out and this page updates daily.
The part that catches people out: 1 game on ESPN+ is not on television. No cable package and no channel number will find it — it is streamed only.
All 12 games. Channels shown where a broadcast has been assigned as of 2026-08-26; college windows are typically set about twelve days before kickoff.
