Big 12 schools agreed Monday night to play one nonconference football game this year to go with their nine conference games as plans for the pandemic-altered season continued to fall into place.
The Big 12′s university presidents signed off on a 10-game schedule, adjusted to deal with potential disruptions from COVID-19, that gives schools the ability to play one nonconference opponent at home.
The conference championship game is scheduled for Dec. 5 but could be moved back to Dec. 12 or 19, the Big 12 announced.
The 10-team Big 12 already plays a nine-game, round-robin conference schedule.
