Many people couldn’t see JuJu Watkins’ amazing game, which was on Pac-12 Network
If you have Pac-12 Network and you were able to see JuJu Watkins take a blowtorch to Stanford’s defense on Friday night, good for you. You deserved to see such a great performance from USC’s superstar player. However, if you have DirecTV or any other system which limits your access to Pac-12 Network, you were out of luck.
Women’s college basketball fans in general, but specifically those in the West, will be so happy next year. JuJu Watkins and USC will be on Big Ten Network and Fox Sports a lot more often. They won’t be on Pac-12 Network. Exposure to Watkins and the USC women’s basketball program will rise substantially.
Fans were frustrated and disappointed on Friday, not only because they couldn’t see JuJu Watkins on television, but also because other interesting Pac-12 women’s basketball games were competing with USC-Stanford.
Let’s highlight some of the details:
ALL GAMES ON AT THE SAME TIME
charisma osborne going nuclear for UCLA, JuJu Watkins carrying USC & going right at Cameron Brink… again, why are all these games on the Pac-12 Network and why are they all on at the exact same time?

STAGGER THE START TIMES!
The Pac-12 putting all their games on at the same time tonight is a crime. Making me flip between three games for no damn reason.

FANS SEE WHAT IS GOING ON
She’s cold. Sadly PAC 12 network is keeping her games locked up. More of them should be nationally televised

SIGH
An exciting top-15 showdown up on The Farm!
Too bad it’s on Pac-12 Network so no one can actually watch it. https://t.co/teNo2LTskK

OUCH!
Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game 🤝 Juju Watkins’s 51-point game
Historic performances that no one could actually see https://t.co/Rjj1kL5e6G

BIG TEN TV FREEDOM IS NEAR!
Next year, we're going to be able to watch so much more women's college basketball with Big Ten Network and none of this "4 games at the same time" amateur hour Pac-12 nonsense. https://t.co/3Ai7Yal9hx
