ROSEMONT, Ill. – For the first time in program history, the Indiana volleyball team will have double-digit matches broadcasted on national television. The Hoosiers will appear 10 times on three different channels (FS1, BTN and ESPN2) following a record-breaking 2025 campaign. A majority of the Big Ten Tournament will appear on BTN before the championship game airs live on FOX (Nov. 25).
Head coach Steve Aird will guide his team through a tough slate in 2026. That includes a trio of games against SEC programs that will feature on national television. IU will play Georgia (Sept. 1 – FS1), Texas A&M (Sept. 2 – BTN) and Tennessee (Sept. 6 – ESPN2) in the span of six days during the first week of September. Its matches against Georgia and Texas A&M are a part of the first Big Ten – SEC Challenge Week.
As conference action gets underway, the Hoosiers will play seven of their first 11 Big Ten matches on either BTN or FS1. That includes a run of four-straight matches between October 1st (at Wisconsin) and October 11th (USC). Matches against Nebraska (Oct. 8), USC (Oct. 11) and Penn State (Oct. 25) will put Wilkinson Hall on full display for a national audience.
The inaugural Big Ten Tournament will pit the top 15 teams in the league against each other in a single-elimination bracket at the Fishers Event Center. All but five games will be broadcasted on BTN. The championship match will air live on FOX, marking the first time a conference volleyball tournament match has been televised on a broadcast network.
