The Southland Conference has announced their fall 2021 football TV schedule, which features all 30 games on ESPN+. Select games will also air on Cox Sports Television (CST).
The schedule kicks off on Saturday, Sept. 4 with West Florida at McNeese (CST/ESPN+) and North Alabama at Southeastern Louisiana (ESPN+).
“As the Southland increases its commitment to ESPN as part of an extended agreement signed in 2020, and expands on its longstanding relationship with the network, televising all home football games is now the norm,” league Commissioner Tom Burnett said. “Further, the upcoming fall football schedule will mark the beginning of an exponential increase in campus production broadcasts in 2021-22. And we greatly appreciate the continued and growing interest from our valued partners at Cox Sports Television, as the network will feature a number of great rivalries.”
Southland Conference teams competing this spring include Houston Baptist, McNeese, Nicholls, Northwestern State, Southeastern Louisiana, and UIW. Abilene Christian, Central Arkansas, Lamar, Sam Houston, and Stephen F. Austin have departed the conference.
