We present a possible explanation of the OPERA results on the superluminal muon neutrinos, by examining the fermion propagation in the earth's gravitational field, considering the gravitational sector to be of Horava-Lifshitz type. In particular, investigating the Dirac equation in the spherical solutions of the theory, we find that the neutrinos feel an effective metric with respect to which they propagate superluminally. This is not the case in larger distances, where standard cosmological geometry is restored.
