Washington State and Oregon State have found new TV outlets for home football games after the death of the Pac-12 Conference.
[[{“value”:”
The Washington State Cougars and Oregon State Beavers got left behind in the scramble for conference realignment homes following the death of the Pac-12 Conference. USC, UCLA, Oregon and Washington landed in the Big Ten. Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, and Colorado went to the Big 12. Stanford and Cal went to the ACC. WSU and OSU got the short end of the stick. They will play several games in 2024 against Mountain West schools as part of makeshift scheduling adjustments. We have been wondering which TV outlets will become partners for Wazzu and Oregon State’s home games. (Road games are a separate matter, as we will explain.) Now we know the answer via John Canzano at his Substack (subscription required — article is paywalled). Canzano is out with a report on the new TV deals for the Cougars and Beavers. We have some of the main details below:
