Fox on Saturday (December 6, 2025) will air the Big Ten (and very big game) championship between second ranked Indiana and top ranked Ohio State in upscaled 4K.

The contest, which will kickoff at 8 p.m. ET, will be simulcast in high-definition on Fox network affiliates.

Which TV Providers Will Carry the 4K Broadcast?
Fox’s 4K games can be seen in the format on the Fox Sports or Fox One apps by logging in with your TV Everywhere user name and password from your pay TV provider. (You can also watch the game in 4K with a separate subscription to Fox One which costs $19.99 a month.)

The pay TV services that normally offer Fox games in 4K on special 4K channels are DIRECTV, Dish, Sling TV, Comcast, Verizon, Optimum, YouTube TV, Spectrum TV (Xumo, Apple TV 4K, Roku 4K devices only) and FuboTV. (In FuboTV markets where the Fox affiliate is provided with your programming package.) Check your on-screen guide for more details.

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.

Who’s Expected to Win the Indiana-Ohio State Game?
Top ranked Ohio State (12-0) is a 4.5-point favorite to defeat second ranked Indiana (12-0), However, ESPN’s Matchup Predictor gives Indiana a 50.6 percent chance of winning, perhaps because the game will be played at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
