Showtime will debut “A Season With Notre Dame Football” on Sept 8, a 12-episode, behind-the-scenes revelation of Fighting Irish football.
The Pac-12 Networks will begin broadcasting “The Drive,” a weekly look inside the Utah and Oregon State football programs on Sept. 23. The first three seasons of “The Drive” were snooze-inducing. It has been so bland that Arizona did not volunteer to be a featured team.
HBO, which established the template for a reality TV sports series with “Hard Knocks,” an unvarnished look inside NFL teams (Houston Texans this year), also hoped to tap into the college football market.
