Fox Sports Tennessee (stylized as FS TENNESSEE) is a regional sports network in the United States. It serves 1.8 million people in Tennessee, northern Alabama, and northeastern Mississippi. It was created in October 2008 when Fox Sports South was split into three feeds, the other two being for Atlanta and the Carolinas.

FS Tennessee is home to the Memphis Grizzlies (NBA) and Nashville Predators (NHL). It also carries Major League Baseball games of the Cincinnati Reds (via Fox Sports Ohio) and St. Louis Cardinals (via Fox Sports Midwest), as well as coverage of SEC college athletics.

Availability

FS Tennessee is available nationwide on DirecTV and Dish Network, and on most cable providers in Tennessee, northern Alabama and northeastern Mississippi. Because of bandwidth, DirecTV and Dish Network still treat Fox Sports Tennessee as a subfeed and only turn it on during Predators and Grizzlies games.

Fox Sports Tennessee HD

Most Predators and Grizzlies games and national Fox Sports Net games and events on Fox Sports Tennessee are available in 720p high definition. Prior to July 2009, the HD version of the channel was only on the air during games and displayed colored test pattern bars the rest of the time. Since July 2009, FS Tennessee HD has transitioned to full time channel although live sports games as well as their late night replays are the only programs in HD.

Branding

Regular programming and nationally-broadcast games uses a standard logo - in this case, FSTENNESSEE. For Grizzlies basketball games and Grizzlies Live, the logo changes to FSGRIZZLIES, with the FS taking on a smoke blue color. For Predators hockey games and Predators Live, the logo turns to FSPREDATORS, with the FS shown in yellow.
