Stadium Unveils Multi-Conference Package of 32 College Football Games

Stadium announced a coast-to-coast lineup of 32 regular season football games from three conference partners that will run across Stadium’s over-the-air network, WatchStadium.com, the Stadium iOS, tvOS, Android TV and Android mobile apps, Twitch (Twitch.tv/stadium) and dedicated channels on Roku and Fubo TV.

In partnership with Facebook, all 32 games will also air on Facebook Watch, including 14 that will be available exclusively on the platform. The games will be available to a global audience on Facebook via the Stadium: Live College Football Show Page.

The lineup features games from the Conference USA, Mountain West and Patriot League and will kick off with a four-game slate on Saturday, September 1st. Lane Kiffin’s Florida Atlantic Owls lead the way with six televised games on the Stadium schedule, which in total features eleven teams that played in bowl games during the 2017 season. Stadium’s lead broadcast team will consist of veteran broadcaster Chris Hassel on play-by-play, Packers veteran and Super Bowl champion A.J. Hawk as lead analyst and Stadium’s own Kristen Balboni on the sidelines.

“We’re incredibly excited to continue our partnership with Facebook, along with our tremendous conference partners at Conference USA, Mountain West and Patriot League,” said Stadium CEO Jason Coyle. “The feedback we received last season from our partners, fans and athletes was overwhelmingly positive and we’re thrilled to raise the bar for another exciting season on Stadium.”

In addition to these games, Stadium’s new partnership with Facebook calls for a wide variety of live college programming during the upcoming season. This includes exclusive college basketball broadcasts on Facebook Watch, as well as simulcasts of sports such as men’s and women’s soccer, women’s volleyball, baseball, softball, men’s and women’s lacrosse and track and field. In total, more than 175 live college broadcasts will be distributed on Facebook Watch.

“As one of our most innovative broadcast partners, Stadium has a first-rate social strategy that helps it successfully build community on Facebook,” said Rob Shaw, Facebook Sports Partnerships Lead, Leagues & Media. “The network delivers content that is highly interactive and social, enabling fans to watch sports together in entirely new ways. So we’re proud to extend our partnership with Stadium and bring fans an exciting new wave of college sports programming this year.”

Stadium will also deliver full game recaps on Facebook Watch for over 1,000 college football and basketball games throughout the year.
