In September 2000, KVAL debuted an original sports program, "Inside the Pac", a reference to the Pac-12 Conference which includes the University of Oregon and Oregon State University, both in KVAL's coverage area. "Inside the Pac" was created after the Oregon Sports Network TV contract went to local rival KEZI, along with the seasonal weekly program featuring Oregon Ducks football head coach Mike Bellotti. Airing each Sunday afternoon, "Inside the Pac" features game highlights and talk about Pac-12 sports. It was originally hosted by former KVAL sports director and longtime Eugene TV broadcaster Todd McKim, who left KVAL in 2005. Also featured on the show as in-studio guests are former college football players from Oregon and Oregon State, who share their knowledge and experience.
