IPTV for College Football and Basketball: Saturdays and March Madness

The College Football Season

• Late August: Week 0 kicks off the season.
• September to November: non-conference games, then conference play and rivalry weekend.
• Early December: conference championship games.
• December and January: bowl season and the 12-team College Football Playoff.
• January: the national championship game.

A Fall Saturday Schedule (Eastern Time)

• Noon: the early games, including many big conference matchups.
• 3:30 p.m.: the afternoon window, often a national game of the week.
• 7:00 to 8:00 p.m.: primetime games under the lights.
• 10:30 p.m. and later: West Coast games for the night owls.

Conference networks carry many games that national channels don't. Favorite your conference's channel so Saturday starts in one click.

College Basketball and March Madness

College hoops tips off in November and builds to conference tournaments in early March. Then comes Selection Sunday and the NCAA Tournament: 68 teams, the First Four, and games running from midday to midnight on the opening Thursday and Friday.

With tournament games spread across several channels, a plan for 2 or more devices lets you watch two games at once, the closest thing to sitting in a sports bar on the first weekend. The women's tournament runs alongside it.

Students, Alumni and Families

Away at college or living far from your alma mater? Mom IPTV works anywhere with internet, so the game follows you. Families can share a multi-device plan so the student on campus and the parents at home both watch.

Pro football is covered on our IPTV for NFL page, basketball fans can follow the pros on the NBA IPTV guide, and every sport is part of the Mom IPTV live sports lineup. For the general football overview, see pro and college football on Mom IPTV.

Rivalry Week and Conference Championships

The last weekend of the regular season, around Thanksgiving, is packed with the oldest rivalries in the sport, and many fans call it the best Saturday of the year. A week later, conference championship games decide who reaches the 12-team Playoff. With games on many channels at once, a plan for 2 or more devices keeps you from missing the upsets.

Bowl Season Viewing Guide

From mid-December to early January, bowl games run almost every day, sometimes four or five on a single holiday. Pin the national sports channels to your favorites and check the TV guide each morning, because start times shift from late morning to late night across the bowl schedule.
