SAN BRUNO, Calif. – West Coast Conference men’s basketball will be featured on national television 56 times during the 2025-26 regular season, including 29 regular season games through its long-term media rights agreements with ESPN and CBS Sports. All 12 programs will appear on national television during the regular season.
 
West Coast Conference action will be featured on as many as five days in a given week, with games airing across ESPN, CBS Sports Network and ESPN+ on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays. 
 
ESPN will showcase 17 regular season men’s basketball conference games and five games in the 2026 Credit Union 1 West Coast Conference Men’s Basketball Championship presented by Air Force Reserve, as well as the championship game of the women’s tournament.
 
West Coast Conference men’s basketball regular season games that are not nationally televised on ESPN or CBS Sports Network, will be available on ESPN+, the leading sports streaming service. Blackout restrictions apply in certain local markets. All games that are televised on an ESPN network will also be available on ESPN’s new direct-to-consumer service and on the ESPN app.
 
Gonzaga and Saint Mary's will renew their rivalry with both matchups on ESPN platforms. The first meeting on Saturday, Jan. 31., will take place in Spokane. The second meeting in Moraga will take place on Saturday, Feb. 28 on the final day of the regular season.
 
Through its relationship with ESPN, five non-conference contests hosted by West Coast Conference teams will be carried on an ESPN network, including Gonzaga’s games against Oklahoma (Nov. 8), Creighton (Nov. 11) and UCLA (Dec. 13), as well as San Diego’s home contest against USC (Dec. 9) and Seattle U’s game against Washington (Dec. 19).
 
CBS Sports Network will feature 12 conference games through its partnership, with games airing on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Two Gonzaga games will air on CBS Sports Network – at Washington State on Jan. 15 and vs. San Francisco on Jan. 24. San Francisco will appear on CBS Sports Network five times during the conference slate, while Saint Mary’s and Santa Clara will each make four appearances during conference play. Both matchups between San Francisco and Santa Clara air on CBS Sports Network - Jan. 28 at Santa Clara and Feb. 21 at San Francisco. 

CBS Sports Network is widely available through all major cable, satellite and telco distributors as well as via OTT streaming service providers YouTube TV, fuboTV, DirecTV and Hulu. Additionally, a live CBS Sports Network stream is available through CBSSports.com and the CBS Sports App by authenticating with select providers.

Each of the 12 programs will play four opponents once and seven opponents twice. Conference play will begin on Thursday, Dec. 28, and will conclude on Saturday, Feb. 28. 

For a record sixth consecutive tournament and 11th time in the last 13 events, multiple West Coast Conference men's basketball teams earned NCAA selections as Saint Mary's and Gonzaga received bids into the 2025 NCAA Tournament collectively for the fourth straight year.

The West Coast Conference also tied a conference record with six men's basketball teams selected to participate in the postseason after Oregon State and Washington State were named to the inaugural College Basketball Crown field and San Francisco and Santa Clara were named to the NIT field.
