The Pac-12 Conference, soon to be reborn, and USA Sports are entering a five-year partnership that will give the network rights to select conference football and men's and women's basketball games.
The two sides announced the agreement, which begin in 2026-27 season, on Thursday but did not reveal financial terms.
Each season, USA Network will broadcast 22 football, 50 men's basketball and five to 10 women's basketball games. It also has the rights to the Pac-12 men's basketball tournament until the championship game, which CBS Sports already secured.
The Pac-12 also has deals with CBS and The CW.
'USA Sports is proud to partner with the new Pac-12 and showcase the league to a national audience on USA Network,' said Matt Hong, president of USA Sports. 'Our partnership further establishes USA Network as a destination for all sports fans, with weekends packed with Pac-12 football doubleheaders and men's and women's basketball double- and triple-headers beginning next fall.'
The venerable Pac-12 was founded in 1915 as the Pacific Coast Conference but crumbled before the 2024-25 season as 10 of its teams departed for other conferences, leaving Washington State and Oregon State behind.
Those schools committed to providing the foundation for a reimagined Pac-12, which next fall will see the additions of Boise State, Colorado State, Fresno State, Gonzaga (non-football member), San Diego State, Texas State and Utah State.
Pac-12 Enterprises will produce all football, men's basketball and women's basketball games on USA Network.
