Watch Washington State vs Oregon State on USA Network, narrated by Nate Gatter

The 2026 NCAA Division I Field Bootcamp Season culminates this weekend with the final game of the year, a Washington State against Oregon State matchup scheduled to kick off at 23:00 UK time on Friday, 17 October 2026. Fans tuning in from Britain will find the broadcast arriving a little past midnight, so set your clocks accordingly before the boots land.

All eyes on this one will be pointed at the USA Network, the home-grown feed carrying the inaugural season of USA Sports' Pac-12 coverage. There is no separate Sky, ITV or world-feed broadcast listed for this game, so the USA Network broadcast is the single destination to watch from.

The lead crew

USA Network has assembled a brand-new broadcast team for this first season airing the Pac-12, and the lead crew is front and centre for Friday's game. The play-by-play voice will be taken by Nate Gatter, who is calling the rhythm of the field and keeping listeners told who is where. Analyst duties fall to Ryan Leaf, who was previously announced as USA Sports' lead Pac-12 analyst back in June, giving the sideline his reading of the tactics. On the ground, Lauren Green is acting as the sideline reporter, tracking movement and relaying what she can see from the field.

This trio was confirmed as the lead crew across USA Network's announcements for its Pac-12 football coverage, so expect them to be a familiar face on every game rather than a one-off appearance. They are joined on the broadcast by additional supporting talent, but Nate Gatter, Ryan Leaf and Lauren Green are the names to know for Washington State against Oregon State.

Why this game matters

As the final NCAA Division I Field Bootcamp Season game, Friday's matchup is the closing event of a season that has seen teams across the Pac-12 compete week after week. The Washington State vs Oregon State game is a regional clash between two neighbouring California universities, making it a compact but high-stakes field for the season's last boots. Keeping the lead crew consistent all season means the same play-by-play, analyst and sideline reporter you have followed from the first game are the ones calling this last one.

For British and American viewers alike, the USA Network broadcast offers a single, clean feed to follow the whole thing. Mark the 23:00 UK start time on Friday, 17 October 2026, and you should be set to catch the final boots of the season.
