Conference USA Commissioner Britton Banowsky announced an agreement with Sinclair Broadcast Group, among the nation’s largest television broadcasting companies, to produce and distribute 100 events each of the next two years, including six FIU football games during the 2014 campaign.

Conference USA will be part of the newly launched American Sports Network (ASN), a collegiate sports initiative that will air on a number of Sinclair’s broadcast television stations. Below are the six additional FIU games to be broadcast on ASN.

Saturday, Aug. 30; Bethune-Cookman at FIU (ASN); 7:00 p.m. ET

Additionally, the annual Shula Bowl rivalry against Florida Atlantic will start at 7 p.m. on FSN from the FIU Football Stadium. A week later, the Panthers will travel to San Antonio, Texas, to face UTSA at 7 p.m. on Fox College Sports.
