FAQs: Akron vs Massachusetts
How can I watch Akron vs. Massachusetts on TV?
You can watch Akron vs. Massachusetts on either ESPNU or CBS Sports Network, with the final channel assignment still to be announced. Those are alternative outlets for this matchup, not simultaneous broadcasts. An event-specific streaming service has not yet been announced.
What time does Akron vs. Massachusetts start?
Kickoff is at 12:00 a.m. Eastern on Wednesday, November 18, 2026. For Central time viewers, that is 11:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 17, so the game falls on different calendar dates in the two time zones.
Where is the game being played, and are there any special events?
Massachusetts hosts Akron at McGuirk Alumni Stadium in Amherst, Massachusetts. UMass has designated the matchup as both its Fan Appreciation Game and Senior Night, giving home fans a chance to recognize the seniors in their final home appearance of the regular season.
Can I listen to Akron vs. Massachusetts or follow live stats?
Akron's radio coverage is available on WHLO 640 AM. UMass also offers a Varsity Network audio link and StatBroadcast live statistics for the matchup, giving fans ways to follow the action when they cannot watch the television broadcast.
Is this Massachusetts' final game of the season?
No. This MAC conference matchup closes Massachusetts' home schedule, but the Minutemen still have a regular-season finale at Bowling Green on Saturday, November 28. Akron's visit is a regular-season conference game, not a bowl or championship game.
