The Pac-12 has secured a media rights deal – at least for the upcoming college football season.
The two-team conference announced on Tuesday that all 13 home games for Oregon State and Washington State during the 2025 season will air on one of three different networks, with nine games on The CW, two on CBS and two on ESPN.
‘Having Pac-12 football featured across three leading broadcasters in CBS, The CW and ESPN in 2025 will provide tremendous exposure to showcase Oregon State, Washington State and our brand in the Pac-12’s final season before expansion,’ Pac-12 commissioner Teresa Gould said in a statement. ‘We are thrilled to continue our partnership with The CW, to welcome a new partner in CBS Sports and to see a return of Pac-12 football on ESPN.’
The financial terms of the contracts have not yet been revealed.
Oregon State and Washington State are the remnants of what had been one of college football’s Power Five conferences prior to the 2024 season, when UCLA, USC, Oregon and Washington left their longtime home for the Big Ten; Colorado, Utah, Arizona and Arizona State bolted for the Big 12; and Stanford and Cal departed for the ACC.
After the 2025 football season, the Pac-12 will be expanding to include San Diego State, Boise State, Colorado State, Fresno State and Utah State, all of which will be coming from the Mountain West.
A media rights deal for the reconfigured conference hasn’t yet been secured, though Tuesday’s announcement could offer an idea of what television networks could be involved in broadcasting games for the seven-team league.
Beyond Oregon State and Washington State’s two scheduled meetings, the Pac-12’s 2025 media rights deal includes two games that will be conference matchups starting in 2026 – Oregon State’s game against Fresno State and Washington State’s game against San Diego State, both of which are on Sept. 6.
