Fox on Saturday (September 13, 2025) will air the Northwestern-Oregon Big Ten college football game in upscaled 4K, according to the Fox One site. The game, which will kickoff at noon ET, will be simulcast in high-definition on Fox network affiliates.

Fourth ranked Oregon is a 27.5-point favorite to defeat unranked Northwestern although the game will be played at the Martin Stadium on the Northwestern campus.

Oregon (2-0) is led by sophomore QB Dante Moore who has completed 34 of 44 passes this season. Northwestern (1-1) is led by senior QB Preston Stone who has completed 61.5 percent of his passes this season.

What Are Fox’s Upscaled 4K Broadcasts?
Fox’s 4K live sports broadcasts are upscaled from 1080p HDR (High Dynamic Range). Upscaling is the process when one video format is converted to another. Fox takes the 1080p HDR signal and converts it to a 4K format. Upscaling 4K is not considered as good as native 4K, but the inclusion of HDR can offer heightened colors and vividness. ESPN also upscaled its 4K broadcasts from a 1080p HD signal.
