Where will UCONN's games be telecast on next year?

[Striper69]

I haven't been watching the forum very much this season. Did SNY lose the UCONN games ? I heard them saying they only had a couple of games left.

 

[TB12]

Yes... Fox will, be doing them. I hope all of them. No Flosports (I hope!)

 

[NEforceUConn]

Maybe ACC network or B1G?

Actually this is for next season:

NBC, TNT Sports expected to broadcast Big East men’s, women’s basketball games this season

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5559347/2024/06/12/nbc-tnt-fox-big-east-basketball-broadcast/ Big East men’s and women’s college basketball is on the verge of adding new television partners as NBC Sports and TNT Sports are expected to join Fox Sports in presenting games beginning this season...

We are so spoiled with SNY. No more pre-game and post-game and no more specials like the excellent The Foundation.
What a shame.

I just hope that all the women's games will be available. Will Fox, NBC, and TNT care about broadcasting blow-outs against lesser BE teams?

Question about Peacock: Is there a way to watch later if one is tied up during the game? Do they keep the game around for a day or two like Fox, or is there something akin to a DVR option?

TIA

So for those in the nyc metro area I assume fox will not block us from watching since SNY is no longer broadcasting. Is this a correct assumption

I don't know about a DVR option. I do know you can watch replays, but I don't know how long they stay up for or if there are any limitations. At this very moment, I can log into Peacock and see the replay for the UConn MBB game vs Butler from January 21, so they do keep them around for a little while.

But who knows how things will shake out next year.

So I think the article says Fox. But is that the major fox network or Fox Sports / FS1 / FS2? Does anyone know? We are switching tv providers and now i need to make sure we get those channels!!

 

[Blond D.]

If its Fox Sports xtra....thats messed up.

Seems unlikely. The new contract covers 65 games which is about a third of all the conference games. We thought SNY might still be in the picture, but based on yesterday's game it sure seems like they know they are done after this season.

Yes. I haven't used it yet, but it does exist.

Correct. You will just need to have access to whomever is caring the game. Could be Fox, FS1, FS2, NBC, Peacock, TNT, or TBS, (and possibly CBS Sportsnet for a game or 2.)

In the earlier thread that I posted here, there’s no mention of FloSports, so...

 

[Centerstream]

Correct. You will just need to have access to whomever is caring the game. Could be Fox, FS1, FS2, NBC, Peacock, TNT, or TBS, (and possibly CBS Sportsnet for a game or 2.)

Also MAX is included as a new carrier...

 

[CL82]

Also MAX is included as a new carrier...

Correct, but no game will exclusively be on max. I believe they will simulcast the TNT and/or TBS games.

 

[Henry]

Games can be on any of the Fox channels - Fox, FS1, FS2 - plus NBC, Peacock, TBS, TNT.

How many of the UConn Women's games be covered? I believe that a majority if not all of them will be covered next year. If every team must be shown at least once, the higher ups would most likely use UConn to show Xavier, Butler, Providence, St. John's, Georgetown, so that there would be a higher viewership, UConn is the driving force of the Big East Women's basketball.
