USA Network will return to college football coverage next month with the Pac-12 Conference, and the network has revealed its broadcast teams for the upcoming season.
USA Sports reached a five-year agreement with the Pac-12 in November 2025. USA Network will air 22 regular-season football games per season, in addition to 50 regular-season men’s basketball games, 5-10 regular-season women’s basketball games, and all games of the Pac-12 men’s basketball tournament, except the championship game.
The Pac-12 also reached separate agreements with CBS and The CW.
Nate Gatter, Ryan Leaf and Lauren Green will be the lead broadcast team for Pac-12 coverage on USA Sports. Ted Robinson, Darius Walker, and Dalen Cuff will be the No. 2 team. In weeks when USA Network has a third game, Guy Haberman, Alex Brink, and Kate Harrison will be on the call.
Gatter is best known for his work on the radio with Westwood One. He was the network’s lead college football play-by-play announcer and also called select NFL and college basketball games for the network.
Ryan Leaf is a former Washington State quarterback who has been doing college football color commentary for several different networks in recent years. He has called games for The CW, ESPN, and Pac-12 Network. Leaf will also do college basketball color commentary for USA.
Sideline reporter Lauren Green has had a similar role with the Utah Jazz. She previously worked as a sideline reporter for the Pac-12 Network.
The most recognizable name joining USA Network’s Pac-12 coverage may be Ted Robinson, who served as the lead play-by-play voice for Pac-12 Network throughout its entire existence. He also called San Francisco Giants games for nine years and has worked tennis majors including the U.S. Open, Wimbledon, and Roland Garros.
In the studio, Lisa Kerney will serve as host alongside Erik Coleman. Darius Walker, who is also the No. 2 color commentator, will serve as a studio analyst for select weeks. It is not clear where the studio coverage will be hosted. For the network’s WNBA coverage this year, USA has used NBC Sports studios.
The Pac-12 on USA Network will begin with a doubleheader on September 5 featuring Wyoming-Colorado State and Portland State-San Diego State. USA Network will have doubleheaders in seven of the 13 weeks of the season, along with a tripleheader in Week 3. Seventeen of 22 games will start at either 6 p.m. ET or 9:30 p.m. ET.
