Here are the games. Apologies for the font change. Needed to fit everything in.

Here's where I think the games are going to air, alongside any conflicts that would preclude another network. At the moment, I don't think any games will air on FS2 from C-USA or the Big 12:
Game | My TV Option Guess | Notes |
Southern Utah at Utah | Pac-12 Networks | Low game on the totem pole for that night |
Indiana at FIU | FS1 | First C-USA controlled game to change date |
Rice at Western Kentucky | CBSSN | Moved later by 2nd (??) TV partner |
Kansas St. at Stanford | ESPN | If ESPN or FS1 bids to show USMNT road WC qualifer (unlikely), could air on P12 Nets |
Colorado St. vs. Colorado | FS1 | See above |
Maryland at FIU | FS1 | 2nd C-USA game moved to weeknight |
Arizona St. at UTSA | CBSSN | FS1 is scheduled for a NASCAR Trucks race on Friday night |
USC at Utah | FS1 | ESPN has TCU-SMU, airs after ARCA racing |
Kansas at Texas Tech | FS1 | ESPN has UConn-UH |
Stanford at Washington | ESPN | If Toledo at BYU on ESPN, could air on FS1 or Pac-12 Networks |
Western Kentucky at Louisiana Tech | CBSSN | Moved later by 2nd (??) TV partner, potential MLB NLDS conflict with FS1 |
Oregon at California | FS1 | Could air on ESPN as doubleheader w/USF-Temple if MLB NLCS conflict |
California at USC | FS1 | FS1 has aired game on WS off day 2 of last 3 yrs (if its an off day) |
Oklahoma at Iowa St. | FS1 | FS1 has aired game on post WS Thursday 2 of last 3 yrs |
UCLA at Colorado | ESPN | CU will probably insist on start time no later than 7pm local time |
Utah at Arizona St. | FS1 | After DST ends. ESPN has UNC-Duke |
Baylor vs. Texas Tech | ABC/ESPN | Could be a 12 day decision |
TCU at Texas | FOX/FS1 | Could be a 12 day decision, doubleheader w/Pac-12 on FS1 or FOX |
Washington at Washington St. | FOX/FS1 | One on FS1, the other on FOX |
Arizona St. at Arizona | FOX/FS1 | One on FS1, the other on FOX |
Louisiana Tech at Southern Miss | CBSSN | Doubleheader (??) with a MAC or MW game. Could be ASN or FS1 too. |
Because there has also been chatter that ESPN may be in the mix for C-USA rights (how true that is, I honestly don't know), it should be noted that ESPNU is currently open on 9/1, 9/9, 9/16 and 10/6. ESPN is also open on 9/16 at the moment. ESPN2 could be open on both 9/16 and 10/6 too, but should be unavailable due to other events on the other September dates (US Open tennis on both dates and Louisville at Syracuse on 9/9), though ESPN occasionally tacks on MLB games late in the season on Friday nights. ESPNU is potentially open on 11/25 too, but there may be other football games that day in addition to men's basketball events such as the NIT Tip Off and ESPN owned events from Anaheim and Orlando.
