ESPN and the new Pac-12 Networks announced their early season picks for Pac-12 Conference football broadcasts, and the Oregon Ducks are lined up for five time slots so far, including a night game to kick things off.
The Ducks' 2012 season opener against Arkansas State -- at Autzen Stadium in Eugene on September 1 -- is set for a 7:30 p.m. local time broadcast on the Pac-12 Networks.
The networks also picked up Oregon's home game against Fresno State the following week, which is set for a 3:30 p.m. kickoff, and its home game against Tennessee Tech the week after that, at noon.
ESPN took the Ducks' October 18 game at Arizona State at 6 p.m., and Oregon will be on either ABC, ESPN or ESPN2, with the time yet to be determined, for its Pac-12 Conference opener on September 22 at Autzen Stadium.
