DAZN has signed a deal with ESPN that will allow it to broadcast up to 25 college football games per week in the UK and Ireland starting this season.
The streamer replaces Sky Sports, whose deal for three games a week expired at the end of last season.
DAZN’s coverage will include the College Football Playoff and CFP National Championship in full, as well as other major Bowls and the College GameDay pre-show every Saturday.
The broadcaster will also stream around 20 games a week from men’s and women’s college basketball – including 63 March Madness games and the entirety of the Elite Eight, Final Four and National Championships.
DAZN chief exec Shay Segev said: “DAZN is committed to bringing the best possible entertainment experience and a comprehensive portfolio of thrilling U.S. college football and basketball content to fans in selected territories in Europe and MENA.
“Working with ESPN, this agreement allows DAZN to expand its global offering of premium North American sports properties, extending beyond NFL Game Pass and NHL.TV. It also means DAZN can broaden access to exciting U.S. sports content and support top-tier leagues in growing their international fanbases.”
The news comes ahead of an anticipated announcement that Sky Sports, 5 and DAZN have secured rights to the NFL starting this season.
