Madden Summer Challenge: An Esports First for the Big 12 Conference and its Members

Client

Learfield IMG

The Big 12 had brought up the idea of trying to figure out something to do in the midst of this unprecedented student downtime and they came to us. We already had established a relationship with Mainline and its CEO Chris Buckner and it made a lot of sense to try and put something together with the Big 12. That was the catalyst for the Madden Summer Challenge. And here we are.

Throughout its existence, PUBGOnline was the first and largest competitive pro league for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG). It featured a multi-tiered competitive landscape allowing beginners, amateurs, and professionals to participate in weekly matches across multiple regions, embracing a path-to-pro ethos.

As a tournament organizer and broadcast partner, Mainline has exampled punctuality, integrity, and fairness throughout each of their hosted events and communities. I’ve also been impressed by their ability to adapt and succeed while the esports space has changed aggressively in the past two years.
