Portland, OR, October 3, 2026 — A college football matchup between the Memphis Tigers and the Charlotte 49ers is scheduled for today, with exclusive broadcast rights held by ESPN Plus. The game will commence at 8 a.m. Pacific Time, making ESPN Plus the sole platform for viewers to watch the contest live.

This arrangement means that traditional television channels will not carry the game, directing fans who wish to follow the Tigers and the 49ers to the streaming service. ESPN Plus, a subscription-based digital service, has become an increasingly common outlet for sporting events, including various college football games, as media rights continue to diversify.

The kickoff time of 8 a.m. PT places the game early in the morning for audiences on the West Coast, while it will be later in the day for those in other time zones, such as Central or Eastern Time. Fans are advised to ensure they have active subscriptions to ESPN Plus and access to a compatible device or platform to stream the game without interruption.

Information regarding the specific venue for the game was not detailed in the summary, nor were details about team rosters, coaching staff, or historical matchups between the two programs. The focus remains on the broadcast details and the scheduled start time.
