Pac-12 and CBS Sports Extend Media Partnership Through 2030-31 Season

The Pac-12 and CBS Sports have extended their media partnership through the 2030-31 season, ensuring coverage of football and men's basketball championship games.

The Pac-12 Conference has officially extended its media partnership with CBS Sports through the 2030-31 season, as announced on Monday. This agreement ensures that CBS will broadcast the conference's football and men's basketball championship games, which will also be available for streaming on Paramount+. Additionally, CBS will air at least three regular-season football and men's basketball games each season, with more games to be featured on the CBS Sports Network.

Pac-12 Commissioner Teresa Gould emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating, "Our goal with this process was to find transformational partnerships for the new Pac-12, and throughout our discussions and time together it became more and more clear that a partnership with CBS Sports would be just that."

The conference plans to announce additional media partnerships as they are finalized. Earlier in April, it was revealed that CBS, The CW, and ESPN would share rights to the 13 home football games involving Oregon State and Washington State, the conference's current members, during the 2025 football season. The CW will broadcast nine of these games.

Looking ahead, the Pac-12 is set to expand its membership to at least eight schools by 2026. Boise State, Colorado State, Fresno State, San Diego State, and Utah State are confirmed to join the conference, with Gonzaga also joining for sports other than football. Texas State is currently the favorite to become the eighth football-playing school to join the Pac-12, although no deal has been finalized yet.

Financial details of the agreement with CBS Sports have not been disclosed.
