College sports in South Crona are unique in their broadcasting traditions compared to other major sports leagues around the world. As most of the OIAA's executive power falls in the hands of the conferences, this allows them to deal with many different major television networks across South Crona, which holds sizable influence over the conferences and teams. [[Qabóri Broadcasting Company|QBC/]][[Cronan Sports Programming Network|CSPN]] is the most influential network by far, holding majority broadcast deals with three conferences; the South Tierrador Conference, the Mid 14 Conference, and the Cronan Athletic Conference. It also holds partial deals with the Orix-12 Conference, the Western Belt Conference, and the SCAC. QBC's deal with the STC is the most valuable TV deal in South Cronan sports, worth approximately $3.8 billion. QBC/CSPN is regarded as the main network of college sports in South Crona, due to them holding the rights to the two most popular conferences in Tierrador.

The remaining conferences are split between [[Tierrador Broadcast System|TBS]], [[Televisión Cinco|TV5]], and [[TierraVision]] in Tierrador, Ceylonia, and Porlos, along with [[ABS]] and [[NPB]] in Alstin. As of the 2035-2036 academic year, TBS holds a $2.3 billion deal with the Songun Coast Conference and a $54 million deal with the Equatorial Athletic Conference. TV5 holds multiple deals of their own, including a $1.9 billion deal with the Mid 14, a $1.7 billion deal with the Orix-12, and a $34 million deal with the Western Belt Conference. TierraVision and the Polynesian Athletic Conference have held the longest uninterrupted television rights deal in history, with TierraVision being the conference's main broadcaster since the conference's inception in 1973, a deal which is currently valued at $114 billion. ABS broadcasts both the St. John's Conference, of which their deal is the 2nd-most valuable at $3.4 billion, theand Southwest Cronan Athletic Conferences, while NPB has the sole broadcasting rights to the Cathay Conference, which is the 3rd-most valuable deal, worth $3.3 billion.

The College Football Playoff holds a 50-year rotating deal with all five major networks, totaling at about $13.9 billion, with QBC, TBS, and TV5 serving as rotating broadcasters of the 4-team tournament in Tierrador, while NPB and ABS rotate as the Alstinian broadcasters. The ice hockey and basketball tournaments each have a similarly-structured deal, however, the five networks typically only broadcast their respective conference's teams, though only if they are designated as the home team. QBC broadcasts the Final Four and National Championship games for ice hockey, while TV5 broadcasts the final two rounds of the basketball tournament.

===Revenue sharing===

Conference television deals typically include the sharing of television revenue amongst the conference's member universities. The most common revenue sharing system, especially in conferences with much more valuable deals, is typically unequal, skewed in favor of the more successful teams. The STC, Mid 14, Orix-12, Cathay, and St. John's conferences use this method. While mainly intended to incentivize competition between the conferences' member teams regardless of talent, unequal revenue sharing had inadvertently created the opposite, as the universities' recently-found abilities to pay their players had led to even greater advantages for more successful schools for player recruiting and general marketing.

Equal revenue sharing is used by the SCC, the PAC, the Mountain, the Cronan, the EAC, the SCAC, and independent schools. Typically, these conferences had remained more stable during the [[2012–2013 OIAA conference realignment|conference realignment wave in 2012–2013]], as the guarantee of stable revenue from the equal revenue sharing deals were regarded as a safer option for the member universities, even if the amount is not as much as a power conference. In 2023, two universities; the [[University of Teschego]] and [[Teschego-Tataía University]], left the PAC for the Orix-12 exactly 1 second after the end of the PAC's then-deal with TierraVision, which had also been in the process of renewal. Teschego-Tataía president Oscar Ati'ikas famously claimed in a press conference that UTT could earn more revenue than "half of the Orix-12." In the 2023 season, UTT finished 2–10 and wen 0–9 in conference play, and the university had earned less television revenue than in the previous season in the PAC.

It is often remarked that major South Cronan television networks and the individual conferences split control over college sports in the region, and they typically employ a checks-and-balances system on each other, as to not prevent a conference/network from attempting to form a monopoly.
