NBC tomorrow night (November 15, 2025) will air the college football game between UCLA and top ranked Ohio State in upscaled 4K. The game will kickoff at 7:30 p.m. ET and will be simulcast in high-definition on NBC affiliates.

Who’s Expected to Win?
Ohio State, which is 9-0, is a 31.5-point favorite at home vs. unranked UCLA, which is 3-6. ESPN’s Matchup Predictor gives Ohio State a 98.3 percent chance of winning.

Which TV Providers Will Show the Game In 4K?
DIRECTV and YouTube TV are among the TV providers which will carry the game in 4K on special 4K channels. Consult your on-screen guide to see if your provider will carry the game in 4K.

What Is Upscaled 4K?
The NBC broadcast will be upscaled to 4K on DIRECTV and YouTube TV, meaning it will be produced in 1080p HD and upscaled to the higher format for home delivery. While upscaled 4K is not regarded as precise or vivid as native 4K (4K on-site production; 4K cameras; and 4K transmission to the home), it can deliver a more colorful and clear picture than a regular HD image.
