ESPN releases 2014 Big XII TV schedule

Due to their contract with Fox Sports for all other sports, many people typically forget that ESPN is the exclusive home for Big XII basketball inside the conference. The games air across ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, and Big 12 Network (ESPN+). Occassionally they'll also reserve a game for Longhorn Network, and this year ESPNews will also be involved. ESPN has released the 2014 Big XII conference schedule and their TV broadcast plans. Here's the breakdown from ESPN Media Zone. 


ESPN’s 2014 Big 12 Men’s College Basketball Television Schedule

ESPN and the Big 12 Conference announced its 2014 men’s college basketball television schedule for ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU and ESPN Regional Television produced games on the regionally syndicated Big 12 Network. ESPN3 will offer coverage of every Big 12 Network game.

On average, ESPN and ESPN2 will combine to televise three Big 12 games a week, highlighted by the popular weekly Big Monday series beginning Jan. 13. Overall, the networks will combine to televise 83 conference games in addition to an extensive schedule of non-conference action (schedule to be determined). Over the course of the 2013-14 season, every school in the conference will be showcased multiple times on ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPNU. The games are being carried as part of a multi-year agreement between ESPN and the Big 12 that runs through the 2024-25 season.

The 10-member Big 12 Conference will feature a full double round-robin format for the second consecutive season. Conference action will tip off on Saturday, Jan. 4, with three games beginning with Oklahoma State at Kansas State at noon on ESPNU, Iowa State at Texas Tech at 1:30 p.m. on the Big 12 Network and ESPN3, and West Virginia at TCU at 4 p.m. on the Big 12 Network and ESPN3.

The Phillips 66 Big 12 Men’s Basketball Championship, held March 12-15, will continue to be televised across ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU and in regional syndication on the Big 12 Network.

The Big 12 Network is entering its sixth year and is distributed on local television outlets throughout the conference’s geographic footprint. It is also carried on various regional sports networks across the country.  Produced by ESPN Regional Television, most Big 12 Network telecasts will be available nationwide via WatchESPN, ESPN 3 and ESPN Full Court.
