Pac-10 TV matters
To clarify what's going on with Pac-10 college football coverage this weekend: ESPN made a deal with Fox Sports Net to take Saturday's between No. 4 Arizona State and No. 5 Oregon and show it nationally at 3:30 p.m. with Mike Patrick, Todd Blackledge and Holly Rowe. Originally, that game was only going to be shown in Oregon, Arizona and California. Now it's a national broadcaast.
Uh, except in Oregon, Arizona and Southern California. We will see the Sun Devils-Ducks game as originally intended on FSN West and ESPN will be blacked out.
USC's home game against Oregon State remains one of the four ABC regional telecasts on Channel 7 at 5 p.m., opposite Boston College-Florida State and Texas A&M-Oklahoma. The South Carolina-Arkansas game is on ESPN2 at 5 p.m.
