Click through for the Army, Navy and Air Force games featured on national television in 2012, according to news releases sent out by NBC, CBS and ESPN (find the link here), previous TV deals announced by the academies and TV and official athletic department schedules. Bookmark the link, print out the schedule, post it on your fridge/desk/barracks wall/etc. and start searching the upper reaches of your cable system for the NBC Sports Network. All times Eastern. “ABC/ESPN2” denotes coverage split by region, with final channel to be announced.
You may have noticed the (*) above. A warning: Most if not all of the games and times are subject to change. That’s especially true for the ESPN family of networks, which can move their multiple contests around later in the season to draw the maximum number of viewers to their top-tier networks. Games that aren’t on the list could show up via your local broadcast or cable channels, or they could be moved into the national rotation if the storyline suits it.
