The San Diego State Aztecs and the Pac-12 have announced the Aztecs’ tip times and broadcast partners for the inaugural season of the rebuilt conference. 

Tip times and TV partners were previously announced for two non-conference games, against Colorado, at 12:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 7 and on USA Network; and the game against UCLA at Pauley Pavilion on Tuesday, Dec. 29, at 7 p.m. and on FS1.

The Colorado game is part of the inaugural National University Bill Walton Classic at Pechanga Arena. The UCLA game is not only the Aztecs’ lone true road game of the non-conference schedule, but it will be the Aztecs’ first game in Westwood since 1990-91. It’s the first of a home-and-home series that will have the Bruins visiting Viejas Arena next season.
