Marist Red Foxes Football TV Schedule, Channels, Times
How to watch live stream Marist Red Foxes football game today, tonight, or tomorrow? What channel & time?
The Marist Red Foxes play in the Pioneer Football League, and virtually the entire 2026 schedule streams on ESPN+ — all six home games at Tenney Stadium plus every road trip except the opener. That August 28 season opener at New Haven runs on NEC Front Row instead, since the Chargers are now a Northeast Conference member after moving up from Division II. Mike Willis enters his third season in Poughkeepsie following a 5-7 campaign that produced a 3-5 mark and an eighth-place finish in the PFL. The scheduling quirk to know about is the Friday night slate: Marist plays three of them this year, including two at home, which is the first time the program has had a pair of home night games since 2016.

Which Marist Red Foxes games are worth watching in 2026?
Two dates stand out, and both are Friday nights. The season opens August 28 at New Haven in a series that has grown into a genuine regional rivalry, made stranger and better by the Chargers' recent jump from Division II to the FCS — it is also the earliest Marist has started a season since joining the Pioneer League. Then on October 9, Columbia brings the Ivy League to Tenney Stadium under the lights, an unusual visitor for a PFL program and the kind of matchup that tends to fill a small stadium. In between comes a September 12 trip to Easton to face Patriot League member Lafayette, giving Marist three scholarship or near-scholarship opponents inside the non-conference slate.
The conference schedule is a mirror image of last season: Marist faces the same eight PFL opponents it played in 2025, with every home and road site flipped. That makes September 26 against Presbyterian an immediate marker, since the Blue Hose enter as one of the league favorites. The two toughest tests likely come in consecutive weeks in late October, first at Drake — the defending PFL champion — and then at home against St. Thomas, before a long trip west to San Diego on Halloween. Marist closes with back-to-back home games against Morehead State and Butler and then finishes at Davidson on November 21.
