The Big 12 football schedule opponents and format have been set for the 2024 through 2027 seasons, the conference announced on Wednesday.
The 2024 Big 12 football season will be the first for the league as a 16-team conference fallowing the addition of the Arizona Wildcats, Arizona State Sun Devils, Colorado Buffaloes, and Utah Utes. Two teams, the Oklahoma Sooners and Texas Longhorns, depart the league for the SEC in 2024.
The 16-team Big 12 Conference will continua to play a nine-game conference schedule with three non-conference contests.
Additionally, all 16 Big 12 teams will compete in one division-less format. The two teams with the highest winning percentage in conference play will advance to the Big 12 Football Championship Game, which is held annually at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
From the Big 12:
During the four years, all teams will play one another at least once home and away. Some matchups will occur over three seasons while others take place in all four. Matchups in 2024 that were also played in 2023 will not repeat at the same site.
The Conference looked to maintain the current 5/4, 4/5 home/away rotation for all 16 members to minimize non-conference scheduling disruptions. Other important factors were balancing annual travel by distance and time zones as well as maintaining connectivity to rivalries without compromising a balanced rotation for all teams.
“As we look towards the future of this Conference, we are thrilled to introduce the first football scheduling matrix for the new-look Big 12,” said Commissioner Brett Yormark. “I’m grateful to our membership for their support throughout the scheduling process. In this model, competitive balance and student-athlete wellness was prioritized. Rivalries will be protected and new matchups will be introduced – the excitement and parity this Conference is known for will continue for years to come.”
The Big 12 did not reveal a date for the release of the 2024 football schedule with dates. Last month, Brett Yormark indicated that the schedule will be released in late November or December.
