The Rose Bowl will be aired on ESPN through 2026, the network said today in a statement, solidifying the home of the game whose future will include a national championship semifinal in certain years.
The Pasadena, Calif., game agreed to a 12-year extension that begins in 2015. Each year, the game will air at 2 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on Jan. 1, unless the day is a Sunday, in which case it will move to Jan. 2.
ESPN will air the game even when it is the national semifinal in the playoff structure agreed to earlier this week.
Please Wait…
