Pac-12 Enterprises announced Wednesday it has reached an agreement with BendBroadband, allowing the Central Oregon cable company to carry the Pac-12 Networks beginning this month.

According to a Pac-12 Enterprises news release, the new agreement allows BendBroadband subscribers access to hundreds of live sports events, including 35 football games, and other specialty content that will be featured on the Pac-12 Networks. The new networks are scheduled to launch on Aug. 15 with Pac-12 Oregon and Pac-12 National on BendBroadband’s Essentials tier in standard and high definition.

BendBroadband also plans to launch Pac-12’s TV Everywhere service as part of its “bendbroadband2go” platform. During the first three weeks of the 2012 football season, the Pac-12 Networks will televise three home games from Oregon and Oregon State, including Oregon State’s home opener against Nicholls State in week one and Oregon home games against Fresno State and Tennessee State in weeks two and three.
