How to watch the Cougs

All 12 games this season, plus the conference championship if they get there, and what each way of watching actually gets you. We don't recommend one — we show what each costs and what it misses.

No single option covers all 12 games. 1 game has no announced network yet — and the best of these three still misses 1 of the 11 that do.

The rest of the field

We could not establish these. Sling Essentials, Sling Select, Philo Essential, Philo Bundle+, Sling Essentials & Select. These publish partial channel lists or put the full line-up behind a sign-in, so we could not confirm a single one of your games on them. That records what our checking found, not a claim about the provider.

Footnotes

“Free over the air” means the game is broadcast free — not that you can necessarily receive it. A ✓ in the antenna column means the network is carrying that game over the air nationally. Whether it reaches you depends on your address, your antenna and what is between you and the transmitter, and we cannot check that from here. Most fans do not live in their team's college town, so we do not grade these cells by what one town receives.

The one signal measurement we have is Pullman 99163. The free path largely fails. CW and NBC unreachable even with a large antenna; CBS genuinely uncertain. That is a modelled prediction for a single ZIP code, so real reception can be worse even there. Treat it as an example, not as your answer — every network publishes a coverage checker for your own address.

If you are near campus, note that this is one of the weaker markets we measured — the free column will be more optimistic for you than for most.

Months. We show the monthly price and how many calendar months your games span. We don't multiply them together — that would assume you cancel on time.

Kickoff times are as published by each school, in that school's own local time zone.
