Big Ten Plus (B1G+) is a streaming service for non-televised Big Ten events and also serves as a companion to access certain live and on-demand content. Here’s how you can watch it across common setups. Where to watch B1G+
- B1G+ website and dedicated mobile apps (Android and iOS) for streaming events directly. Some devices also support streaming via compatible apps on smart TVs or streaming sticks, depending on availability in your region.
- On some platforms, B1G+ content is accessed through partner apps (for example, the FOX Sports app) when they include access to live Big Ten content via your TV provider credentials.
How to access live Big Ten events via B1G+
- If a game is branded as B1G+ and is not on national TV, you can typically watch by logging into your B1G+ account on the website or app and selecting the game or event.
- For live games that are broadcast on network or conference channels, you may need to use your pay-TV provider credentials within the FOX Sports app or the respective streaming service that carries the Big Ten Network (BTN), as B1G+ content is sometimes accessible through those platforms.
Subscription options
- B1G+ offers monthly and/or annual plans depending on the current package and region. Pricing and availability can vary, and some plans may be sport-specific or bundled with regional access.
- There are often regional or event-based passes, so review the options carefully to match your watching interests and budget.
Devices supported
- Web browser on desktop or laptop.
- Mobile devices via the B1G+ app (Android and iOS).
- Streaming devices such as Roku, Fire TV/Stick, Apple TV, and some smart TVs. Availability depends on the current app ecosystem in your country.
Tips to ensure smooth viewing
- Make sure the device firmware and the B1G+ app are updated to the latest versions.
- Check your internet connection speed; streaming in HD generally requires at least 5 Mbps, with higher bandwidth recommended for 4K or high frame-rate streams.
- If a live game isn’t appearing, verify whether it’s a B1G+ exclusive or if it’s being carried by another provider requiring a separate login (e.g., a FOX Sports app login tied to a cable/satellite subscription).
- If you encounter login or payment issues, contact B1G+ support or use the in-app help/support options.
