The 2015 football season will be the second under the American Athletic Conference’s comprehensive television partnerships with ESPN and CBS Sports. The new arrangements began with the 2013-14 basketball season and will be in place through the 2019-20 academic year. The contracts provide for unprecedented exposure on two of the industry leaders in sports television. In football, the contract calls for all conference-controlled games — which encompasses all conference games and home non-conference games — to be televised. Nearly 90 percent of those games will be carried on either national broadcast or national cable platforms. In addition to contracted games on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU and ESPNews, American Athletic Conference teams will regularly appear on CBS Sports Network through a sublicensing agreement with ESPN. Additional nonconference games will be available on ESPN3 — ESPN’s live multi-screen sports network, giving fans an online destination that delivers thousands of global sports events annually. It is accessible online at WatchESPN.com, on smartphones and tablets via the WatchESPN app and streamed on televisions through Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, Apple TV, Chromecast, Roku, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. The network is currently available to more than 99 million homes at no additional cost to fans who receive their high-speed Internet connection or video subscription from an affiliated service provider. The network is also available at no cost to approximately 21 million U.S. college students and U.S.-based military personnel via computers, smartphones and tablets connected to on-campus educational and on-base military broadband and Wi-Fi networks. ESPN, Inc., is the world’s leading multinational, multimedia sports entertainment company featuring a portfolio of more than 50 multimedia sports assets. The company is comprised of eight U.S. 24-hour television networks and five HD simulcast services.
