tomorrow at 11:00 AM Eastern Time. Personally I´m most interested in seeing when the Holy War is.

The previous 2 Announcements by @KevinKelleyFB from January 31st & again 1 or 2 Days ago specifically said: “The @Big12Conference Schedule is scheduled 4 release on ESPNU Tuesday, February 4, 2025 @ 11:00 Ante Meridian Eastern Standard Time.”

These leaks from the 3 journalists linked @ the Top of this Article are a bonus feature.

@KevinKelleyFB, operator of fbschedules.com could have waited till February Fourth to release anything.
Anything @ all.

You need to put the Ireland game on ISU’s and KSU’s schedules!! You mentioned it in the intro writing.

They also played a non-conference conference game in 2024 that was scheduled before the league expanded. This is the return game.

The game was signed prior to Arizona joining the Big 12. Both schools opted to keep the game as a non conference game.

There is an article around here that discusses the particulars if you want to search for it.

Yeah, I think it was a previously-scheduled non-conference series before the latest round of conference realignment.

All four of the P-4 leagues need to return to divisions: play nine conference games, each division winner plays in the champ. game (like they did 3 years ago), that’ll be less confusing than one 16 team conf. w/out divisions.

I’m disgusted that the Big 12 has once again decided to place rivalry games in the middle of the season instead of on traditional Saturdays. The Utah-BYU game is scheduled for Oct 18. As fans, we’re already subjected to late night start times. They might as well play the games on the dates that the vast majority of fans want. This game should be played on Nov 29. Instead, BYU gets to host … UCF. So silly.

I’m sure that the Big 12 will screw up Arizona vs Arizona St and K-State vs Kansas too. Its par for the course.

The Holy War should be Nov 22 or 29. In fact, I actually like rivalry games the Saturday before Thanksgiving, because more students will be there.
Traditionally, before FBS expanded to 12 games in 2006, many rivalry games were played then. For example, most Pac-10 and Big Ten rivalry games were played on that day, and Cal/Stanford continue to play on that day to this day.

Reed & Evan & Jesper,

Isn’t The Revivalry an every year match too?

P.S. Evan, your Idea would work well If/When 1 of the Trust 4 Conferences “will continue to make our Students well- being, health & opportunities our highest priority”.

When is the Big 12 going to ape the SEC and come up with some kind of Big12 v Big Sky and Southland Conference challenge the weekend before Thanksgiving? That should be at least as entertaining as the annual SEC v SoCo challenge.
