What is coming up on the USA Network in November 2026?

This month, the USA Network is delivering a packed lineup that balances live sports and extensive procedural marathons.

The USA Network will offer comprehensive live Premier League coverage either side of soccer's November international break, with multiple games on Saturdays and Sundays within the channel's Premier League Mornings strand.

During the last matchround before players from around the world join up with their national teams, USA will screen Everton vs Coventry City on Friday November 6, Leeds United vs Tottenham Hotspur and Fulham vs Newcastle United on Saturday November 7, then Sunderland vs Chelsea and Manchester United vs Aston Villa on Sunday November 8.

The USA Network's live EPL offering during the fortnight after the league returns to action is yet to be confirmed, although its live games are likely to include Manchester City vs Fulham on Saturday November 21, Hull City vs Brighton & Hove Albion and Liverpool vs Manchester United on Sunday November 22, Brentford vs Everton on Monday November 23, Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea on Friday November 27, then Everton vs Liverpool and Arsenal vs Manchester City on Sunday November 29.

Following its Saturday morning Premier League doubleheaders, the USA Network usually broadcasts Saturday's 12.30pm ET kickoff from Germany's Bundesliga. This month's live matches are VfB Stuttgart vs Werder Bremen on November 7, Schalke 04 vs VfB Stuttgart on November 21 and VfB Stuttgart vs Eintracht Frankfurt on November 28.

NCAA college football from the Pac-12 Conference is a fixture of the USA Network's schedule on Saturday evenings during the fall. This month's live games include Boise State @ Colorado State and Fresno State @ Utah State on November 7, Oregon State @ Boise State and Utah State @ San Diego State on November 14, then Washington State @ Texas State and San Diego State @ Boise State on November 21. USA's live matchups on November 28 will be announced ahead of that Saturday.

USA's coverage of the 2026/27 NCAA men's college basketball season gets underway in November, with the channel showing games from the Pac-12 Conference at weekends. The games tipping off this month are San Diego State @ Colorado State on Saturday November 7, Butler @ Boise State on Sunday November 8, Loyola Chicago @ Colorado State and Louisiana State University @ Gonzaga on Saturday November 14, North Texas @ Boise State on Saturday November 28 and Milwaukee @ Oregon State on Sunday November 29.

WWE SmackDown is a mainstay of USA's primetime schedule, continuing to be a cornerstone event airing live every Friday at 8.00pm ET.

Beyond the live sports arena, the network is anchoring its daytime and late-night blocks with tried-and-true syndicated favorites. Viewers can settle in for massive, multi-hour daily marathons of Dick Wolf's Law & Order: Special Victims Unit series and his hit police drama Chicago P.D., which typically dominate the morning, afternoon and evening timeslots when the channel is not broadcasting live events.
