# Sports USA Radio Network

Sports USA Media is the largest independent sports broadcasting radio network in the United States, specializing in live broadcasts of American football, specifically of the NCAA football Division I-A and National Football League (NFL). In 2018, more than 450 radio stations across the United States carried NFL and NCAA football games from Sports USA.

## Programs
### The NFL on Sports USA

Sports USA began broadcasting NFL games in 2002. The company broadcasts two games every Sunday during the NFL regular season for a total of 36 games by arrangement with the individual home teams.

### College Football on Sports USA

Sports USA broadcasts at least one major college football game every Saturday during the college football season. In addition, Sports USA periodically broadcasts a Thursday night match up, along with select bowl games.

### The NHL on Sports USA

In February 2021, Sports USA reached a deal with NBC Sports, which was phasing out of both radio and hockey, to take over its rights to national radio broadcasts of the National Hockey League. That season, it aired two outdoor games, selected early round playoff games, and all games from the Stanley Cup Semifinals and Finals. Later in 2021, Sports USA renewed its rights until the 2024-25 season. Unlike other league's major championship coverage, this coverage is not exclusive and stations that are affiliated with the participating Stanley Cup Finals team's radio networks will be allowed to carry and stream coverage.

### Other sports

Sports USA Media also carries the Little League World Series, NFL Draft and horse racing from the Horse Racing Radio Network. HRRN also produces the Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing (Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes); however distribution is handled by Westwood One.

Play-by play announcers include the network's founder and former USC Trojans football broadcaster Larry Kahn, Anaheim Ducks broadcaster John Ahlers, FOX Sports announcer Adam Amin, former USC Trojans football and Los Angeles Rams head coach John Robinson, former Colorado head coach Gary Barnett, former ABC announcer and quarterback Dan Fouts (Fouts also splits time with the NFL on CBS), Ross Tucker, Golden State Warriors announcer Bob Fitzgerald, former USFL defensive back Troy West, and Eli Gold (voice of the Alabama Crimson Tide, perhaps better known nationally for his work on NASCAR).
