ESPNU will televise Long Beach State’s men’s basketball game at Pittsburgh on Wednesday, Nov. 16, bringing the 49ers’ total number of potentially televised games to 14.
The ESPN networks (ESPN/ESPN2/ESPNU/ESPN3) will broadcast 10 of the 49ers’ games, including the Pitt game.
Long Beach State’s non-conference games at Louisville (Nov. 28) and Kansas (Dec. 6) will also be televised by ESPNU, while the LBSU game at North Carolina (Dec. 10) will be broadcast on ESPN3. The 49ers’ three games at the Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii will air on either ESPN2, ESPNU, or ESPN3.

An ESPN network will broadcast both LBSU/UC Santa Barbara games with the Jan. 21 game played in Santa Barbara airing on ESPNU and the Feb. 22 rematch taking place in Long Beach being televised on ESPN2. ESPNU will also broadcast the LBSU/Cal State Fullerton game in Long Beach on Jan. 28.
The Fox networks will broadcast LBSU’s home game against Pacific (PRIME TICKET) on January 14 and its road game at Cal State Fullerton (FS WEST) on March 3.
The 49ers could end up with two more games being nationally televised. The Feb. 18 BracketBuster game could be broadcast by one of the ESPN networks. The Saturday, Feb. 4, home game against Cal State Northridge could also be broadcast by ESPNU or FS WEST.
