TV Answer Man, been waiting on your update on Fox’s 4K games for this weekend. Any word? Will they have 4K games this week? — Sam, Largo, Maryland. 

Sam, Fox usually announces its upcoming 4K college football games well in advance of the action. But the network was a bit slow this week. However, we just got the update this morning.

Fox will offer two more college football games in upscaled 4K this week. The first 4K game will be at noon ET (September 28) when Minnesota will play 12th ranked Michigan. Game two in 4K will be the 3:30 p.m. ET contest (September 28) between Deion Sanders’ Colorado and UCF. Both games will be simulcast on Fox network affiliates in high-def.

How Can You Watch Fox’s Games In 4K?

Fox’s 4K games can be seen in the format on the Fox Sports app by logging in with your TV Everywhere user name and password from your pay TV provider. (Note that the Fox Now app is no longer available.)

The pay TV services that are expected to carry the Fox games in 4K on special 4K channels are DIRECTV, Dish, Sling TV, Comcast, Verizon, Optimum, DIRECTV Stream, YouTube TV, and FuboTV. (In FuboTV markets where the Fox affiliate is provided with your programming package.) Check your on-screen guide for more details.

Sam, hope that helps. Happy viewing and stay safe!
