CBS Sports to Pick Up Additional Big 12 Basketball Games

CBS Sports and the Big 12 have partnered to bring more men’s basketball games to the network. This is a multi-year agreement which lasts through the 2026-27 season, per a release sent on Monday.

CBS Sports Network will televise an additional 20 men’s basketball regular season games per year during the deal. The two have worked together in the past as CBS would broadcast at least six conference games.

This will bring the total to 26 games across CBS Sports networks.

“CBS Sports continues to be the home for big-time college basketball and we are excited to expand our long-standing relationship with the Big 12,” said Dan Weinberg, Executive Vice President, Programming, CBS Sports. “The Big 12 is one of the nation’s signature basketball conferences with marquee schools, student-athletes and coaches along with a rich history in the sport. This is a tremendous opportunity to add 20 high-quality games from a premier conference to our schedule and we are thrilled to increase the number of Big 12 basketball games across our CBS Sports platforms.”

“Growing our presence on CBS Sports will deliver Big 12 basketball to even more fans across the country,” said Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark. “The additional nationally televised games will continue to grow our brand as the best conference in college basketball and showcase the elite student-athletes and programs from our 16 institutions.”
