When March Madness rolls around, truTV is one of those channels that isn’t sports-focused, but you have to be able to find if you’re a men’s college basketball completist.
And now, the same is true for college football. If you are a whole-hog consumer of the sport – or just a fan of a team in the sometimes-wacky Mountain West Conference – then chances are you’re going to be watching the channel at some point this season.
That’s because the Mountain West and Turner Sports struck a deal for the rights to 14 football games this season.
Here are the games you’ll need to find truTV for, or have the streaming service Max:
All times listed in Eastern.
Somehow, San Jose State and New Mexico will play both play five times each — but not against each other — on truTV and Max. If you want to see what the new-look Lobos and Spartans look like under first-year veteran coaches in Bronco Mendenhall and Ken Niumatalolo, you’ll need truTV or Max.
And remember, Turner Sports also has the broadcasting rights for two College Football Playoff games this year with the noon and 4 p.m. kickoffs for Saturday, Dec. 21 slated for TNT. We’ll have to wait and see if Charles Barkley will be part of that coverage.
