- ESPN will have US Open tennis Thursday & Friday night, plus Saturday afternoon covering the women's championship match in mid-afternoon.
- FS1 has two MLB games at 4pm & 7pm ET.
- The opening night of the NFL season is Thursday night and there's been virtually no major CFB competing against that game for a few years.
Unknown
- It is unknown whether FOX broadcast network has any MLB commitments on this Saturday. None are currently listed, but I don't know if this is a week where FOX can select a game on about ten days notice.
- Don't know when UFC would have it's September PPV and the channel for those prelims. Didn't account for a PPV this week.
Friday
7pm ACCN: William & Mary at Virginia
9pm ESPN2: Marshall at Boise St.
10pm Pac-12: Sacramento St. at Arizona St.
I moved Marshall at Boise St. over here based on what has already (not) been moved. The Mountain West's weeknight schedule comes out in early April and a limited number of Boise St. games can move. With ESPN being the rightsholder for Boise St. home games, to me, this seems like a logical fit.
EDIT (2/22/19): To account for the possibility of UFC PPV prelims on ESPN, I made the following changes:
- West Virginia at Missouri was moved from 9pm ESPN to 12pm SEC Network
- Murray St. at Georgia stays at 12pm, but moves to SEC Network Alternate
- BYU at Tennessee moves from 6pm ESPN to 7pm ESPN2
- San Diego St. at UCLA moves from 7pm ESPN2 to 5pm Pac-12 Networks
- Northern Colorado at Washington St. stays at 5pm, but is only shown on linear TV on Pac-12 Networks' Washington.
- California at Washington moved up 30 minutes from 10:30pm to 10pm and moves from ESPN2 to ESPN.
Here's the deal: If the game isn't listed, assume it will be streamed by whatever the home conference's streaming arrangements are (ESPN3, ESPN+, Stadium online, etc.)

So what I don't know is whether the ACC Network will have alternate feeds for football games or not. My assumption right now is that they will not because they allowed for streaming of games previously compared to the SEC, who did not.

Seems to me that ESPN will pick week two with the first Big 12 selection this year and put LSU-Texas in ABC prime time.
I think LSU-Texas at night is a better ratings draw than Texas-OU at noon.
Any idea if I Oklahoma’s third tier rights deal stays with FOX or if it belongs to the RSN, Fox Sports Southwest?
Presumably the RSN sale would have been completed by then. Presumably whomever buys it could put it on PPV or simply provide it through their regular distribution method, streaming, linear channel, etc.
It's a good question Erik. Depends first on when the asset sale from 21st Century Fox to Disney is given final approval in multiple countries. After that the RSNs are officially on the block, though Disney has already been going thru the bid process.
I believe those deals were struck with the RSNs specifically when I Googled for info on them. The FOX Sports rep I usually saw quoted was the president of FOX Sports SW.
I don't think you can have a ACC team and a SEC team same time on ABC. Since one ABC affiliate(WLOS in Asheville) also goes into parts of the Upstate, which is SEC country.
Sure you can. That means nothing.
Fox broadcast network should be good to go for CFB all day on 9/7, 14, and 21. Fox's baseball schedule came out today and the only day game for September is a wild-card pick on 9/28.
Texas A&M-Clemson- remember the last time this game was on ABC(2005) the chief justice died during that game.
you think RBG can hang on that long?
I would think btn would put eastern Illinois vs Indiana game also at noon. Sense the Iowa vs Rutgers game is a conference game.
