Watch Michigan
This is every Michigan game that is going to be on TV or a non-B1G+ streaming service. If its not listed here, and the home team is a Big Ten team, it is almost certainly on B1G+.

What channels do Olympic sports typically air on?
As you can see from the schedule above, if Michigan is on real TV in an Olympic sport, it is probably on Big Ten Network. ESPN2 and ESPNU grab limited volleyball and women's gymnastics most years, sometimes FS1 will grab a couple things. Sometimes early-season away games can be seen on ACC Network or SEC Network. Everything else is on B1G+.
What is B1G+?
B1G+ is the streaming service the Big Ten operates, primarily to broadcast Olympic sports (though most men's basketball teams play about a game a year on there, and women's basketball and hockey are on there all the time). B1G+ has many issues, and I can honestly really only recommend paying for it if you decide you're REALLY into this. First of all, its expensive for what it is. Second of all, streams are often low quality, may not start on time, and often seem to choose between having announcers and having a working scoreboard. B1G+ has a lot of problems and I hope to discover them extensively at some point. If you're interested in specific games, grab B1G+ and suffer with us die hards. If you're cool with whatever happens to be on TV, that's what the grid above is for.
What is ESPN+? How is it different from ESPN3?
ESPN+ is a pay streaming service operated by ESPN. It is relatively inexpensive, and has A TON of world soccer (as well as the USL, home league of the Detroit City Football Club). If you have Hulu and Disney+, you might already have ESPN+. It also has most Big 12 events, as well as many events hosted by non-power conferences, including the MAC.
ESPN3 is what ESPN calls its stream-only broadcasts that are available to you with a cable login. (Or a login from a Live TV streaming service like Hulu or Youtube TV.) Prior to ESPN+, there was stuff on ESPN3 all of the time. Now they're somewhat few and far between, typically stream-only events are on ESPN+ now.
What are ACCNX and SECN+?
Sometimes, we get lucky and non-conference away games are either on ACC Network or SEC Network, on TV. If you get ACC Network and/or SEC Network, you also have access to ACCNX and SECN+ by using your cable/streaming login on the ESPN website or app. If Michigan is playing an away game at an ACC or SEC school, and it is not on linear ACCN or SECN on TV, then it is almost certainly on ACCNX or SECN+. In general, these are some of the highest quality broadcasts of Olympic sport content, I always get excited when Michigan has an away game at an ACC or SEC school. Personally, I have Hulu with Live TV, which gets ACCN and SECN and therefore I can get ACCNX and SECN+ games in the ESPN app on my TV.
Where else could a game possibly be?
Once in a great while, an away non-conference game is available on the home team's website, when that happens they'll be included here.
The other place that sometimes gets events is FloSports, a for-pay streaming service that broadcasts many Olympic and niche sports. Flo events are often neutral site-events, such as big multi-school gymnastics meets or neutral site softball and baseball. Flo (like B1G+) is aware that if you want the content you're gonna have to pony up, and their broadcast quality varies.
In theory non-conference away games can also end up on Pac-12 Network, which given its imminent demise, the less said about P12N the better. If you live out there or you get one of the streaming services that has it, maybe you can catch an away game here and there.
