SAN FRANCISCO – The Pac-12 today announced broadcast schedules for the 2019-20 men’s basketball season, which will include 150 total games on Pac-12 Networks. The regular season tips off with four games on Tuesday, Nov. 5, all airing across Pac-12 Networks, and kicking off with defending Pac-12 Tournament champion and 2019 NCAA Sweet 16 participant Oregon facing off against Fresno State at 6 p.m. PT. The season will once again culminate in Las Vegas with the 2020 Pac-12 Men’s Basketball Tournament presented by New York Life from T-Mobile Arena, with Pac-12 Networks going live from on-site and airing eight of the tournament’s 11 games.
