Mountain West Conference signs media rights deal with Fox & CBS


Their games will now be on a combination of FS1 and CBS Sportsnet. This is a move away from ESPN and sort of shuts ESPN out of the West Coast other than what's left of the PAC12 agreement. It will be interesting to see what happens there.

The article talks about Fox bidding on the current package SEC has with CBS for football games, but per the recent article ABC plans to outbid them. Maybe ABC said that after knowing what was happening here.

This makes me think ABC will decide to go all in on the Big12 going forward. After the PAC12 turned down ESPN, they seem to have put a press on the Big12, and Fox is backing away from the Big12. ESPN already has the SEC, the ACC, and the American, MAC, and Sun Belt already locked up.
