To watch Big Ten wrestling in 2025–26, you’ll use a mix of Big Ten Network (BTN) on TV, the FOX Sports/FOX One ecosystem, B1G+ streaming, and FloWrestling for select events. Most major duals and the Big Ten Championships finals are on BTN and streamable with a TV login, while early rounds, extra duals, and archives live on B1G+ or FloWrestling.

How to watch Big Ten wrestling (quick rundown)

  • Get access to BTN via cable, satellite, or a live TV streamer (e.g., services that carry Big Ten Network).
  • Use the FOX Sports / FOX One / FOX Nation app or site to stream BTN once you have a provider login.
  • Subscribe to B1G+ if you want most non-televised duals and extra coverage, including many Big Ten wrestling events.
  • Use FloWrestling for specific Big Ten–related streams and for the Big Ten Wrestling Championships when they have the digital rights.
  • Check school and conference pages weekly for updated broadcast schedules.

Where Big Ten wrestling actually shows up

1. Big Ten Network (BTN) + FOX apps

BTN is still the core TV home for Big Ten duals and the Big Ten Championships.

  • BTN airs a slate of marquee duals (e.g., Penn State–Ohio State, Penn State–Iowa) and the Big Ten Championships coverage.
  • These telecasts are available on:
    • Linear BTN channel through your TV package.
    • Streaming in the FOX Sports or FOX One-type apps with your TV login.

Example: A 2026 Penn State vs. Ohio State dual is carried live on BTN and streamable via the FOX Sports app or a trial-friendly streaming provider.

2. B1G+ (Big Ten Plus)

B1G+ is BTN’s own subscription streaming service and fills in the gaps around the TV schedule.

  • Offers 80+ additional wrestling matchups in 2025–26 plus archives and original content.
  • Includes: many regular-season duals, in-season tournaments, and supplemental coverage of the Big Ten Championships.
  • Pricing example: around 89.99 per year or 12.99 per month for broad access (plans can vary by sport/school).

For a fan who wants “almost everything Big Ten,” a B1G+ subscription plus access to BTN will cover the vast majority of the season.

3. FloWrestling

FloWrestling sits on top of this ecosystem as a national wrestling streaming hub.

  • Hosts the live stream and replay library of the Big Ten Wrestling Championships in recent seasons for subscribers.
  • Gives access to live events, replays, results, and original wrestling content with one subscription.
  • Also promotes that many BTN Plus wrestling events are carried live on Flo, making it a one-stop shop for a lot of college wrestling fans.

If your focus is postseason and broader college wrestling (not only Big Ten), FloWrestling becomes especially attractive.

Step‑by‑step: get set up before the season

  1. Confirm whether you already get BTN
    • Check your cable/satellite/live-TV streaming package list for Big Ten Network.
    • If you don’t see BTN, compare live TV streamers that carry it (often with free trials).
  2. Create or confirm FOX app access
    • Install FOX Sports / FOX One–style apps on your smart TV, phone, or streaming box.
    • Sign in with your TV provider so you can stream BTN events away from your cable box.
  1. Decide between B1G+ and FloWrestling (or both)
    • If you mainly want Big Ten duals and conference events : start with BTN + B1G+.
 * If you also care about **other conferences and national-level coverage** , add FloWrestling, which includes Big Ten Championships coverage and much more.
  1. Mark the key dates
    • BTN releases an annual wrestling broadcast schedule with exact dates and times for featured duals and the Big Ten Championships.
 * Bookmark that schedule so you can quickly see which events are on BTN vs B1G+.
  1. Use forums and fan guides for hacks
    • Wrestling forums and fan channels often share “how to watch Big Tens” guides each March, including which services are cheapest, how to stack trials, and what rounds are on which platform.

Watching the Big Ten Wrestling Championships

For many fans, “how to watch Big Ten wrestling” really means the Big Ten Wrestling Championships weekend.

  • Finals are commonly on BTN on Sunday, streamable with your TV login in the FOX Sports app.
  • Earlier rounds (session 1, quarterfinals, consolations) are often behind a B1G+ or FloWrestling paywall and may be split across mats/streams.
  • FloWrestling provides live event streams and then on-demand replays for the duration of your subscription, so you can go back and re-watch sessions and individual matches.

A typical “Championship weekend” setup for a fan:

  • TV on BTN for finals (and any televised sessions).
  • Laptop or tablet on B1G+ or FloWrestling for early-mat coverage and alternate mats.

Imagine it’s Big Ten Championships weekend in early March. You flip on BTN for the evening semifinals and finals, using your FOX app login so you can move between your living room TV and a tablet in the kitchen.
