A busy week in the Pac-12 included the surprising news that Washington’s date with Michigan State will be shown exclusively on Peacock.
1. Penix meets Peacock
Perhaps the premier non-conference games of Week Three won’t be on FOX’s Big Noon window or ABC’s primetime slot.Instead, a preseason top-10 team with a Heisman Trophy candidate will face an upper-level Big Ten program on a streaming service with just 20 million subscribers . The attractiveness of the Washington-MSU matchup is the very reason NBC opted for an exclusive broadcast on Peacock. It wants to drive viewers to the streaming platform and is using premium Big Ten football as a means to that end.The Washington-MSU matchup is merely the latest example of media companies shifting their football inventory to streaming platforms — a trend that will accelerate in a few years when ESPN itself becomes a streaming service.
It could work as the second half of a Saturday doubleheader, with the Big Ten game airing at 4:30 p.m. and then a Pac-12 matchup at 7:30 or 8 p.m. The heaviest concentration comes in Week Two, when Pac-12 teams will appear on three broadcast networks at the same time — and in prime time on the East Coast, no less.
And Arizona landed a major transfer when guard Caleb Love, who helped lead North Carolina to the 2022 NCAA title game, announced he would spend his senior season in Tucson.
