Which five Pac-12 games should all women’s basketball fans mark on their calendars?

The Pac-12 should be one of the top two conferences again in 2019-20, which means there will be few games that aren’t must-see for those who love women’s basketball. But which five should even casual fans watch — even if they have to stay up late?

More from NCAA

All five games will be televised either on one of the ESPN channels or the national Pac-12 Network feed, so they will be available to subscribers of most cable providers, Dish Network and SlingTV. Subscribers to who don’t receive the Pac-12 Network should hang out with a friend on Jan. 24.

Four of the five contests will be between schools located in California and Oregon. The conference is much more than that, though, so the hunt was on for the top nationally-televised game between schools not located in those two states. The Arizona schools won that contest.

All times are listed in both local and Eastern time zones.
