SiriusXM carries dozens of college football games every week on satellite radio and its app, along with round-the-clock talk shows devoted to the sport.
The service’s college football channels, heard in the car or streamed online, offer live game broadcasts plus daily talk and analysis from hosts who include Heisman Trophy winners, national champions and former players and coaches.
Most games air on Saturday, with select games during the week. See SiriusXM’s current schedule at:
NCAAF Broadcast Schedule on SiriusXM
The schedule can be filtered to show games from just one conference.
A note for owners of older radios: SiriusXM moved its conference channels to new numbers, and some older car radios cannot receive them. If your radio can’t find a channel, the same broadcast is available in the SiriusXM app. Some games are carried only in the app, on channels numbered in the 900s.
