YouTube TV may lose NFL and college football broadcasts

• YouTube TV may lose Fox channels if an agreement is not reached by September 27.
• The conflict affects the broadcast of important games, including Texas against Ohio State.
• Subscribers will receive a $10 credit if the broadcast is unavailable.

This is reported by CNET, Marca.

As of September 26, 2025, YouTube TV may lose access to Fox channels if Google and Fox do not reach an agreement by 5:00 PM Eastern Time on September 27. This issue arose at the start of the new football season, and in the absence of an agreement, millions of subscribers could be left without important broadcasts.

Within the context of this conflict, YouTube TV blames Fox for failing to secure payment for the broadcast. If Fox becomes unavailable, subscribers will receive compensation of $10.

This conflict particularly affects college football fans, as on Saturday, September 28, a game between Texas and Ohio State, which has a large following, will take place. Additionally, Fox holds the rights to broadcast other important games, including Baylor-Auburn.

While the first NFL game on Fox is scheduled for September 7, the consequences for college football could be serious, as important games may remain without broadcasts. In the absence of an agreement, viewers may turn to other streaming services that provide access to Fox, or resort to antennas for viewing the games.
