Source: Pac-12 to play seven-game slate starting in November

The Pac-12 will play a seven-game conference football season beginning Nov. 6, a source told ESPN.

The decision, voted on by the Pac-12's CEO group Thursday, represents an official reversal after the conference announced in early August that it would postpone all sports until at least Jan. 1, citing health concerns related to the coronavirus pandemic.

The Pac-12 move comes in the wake of a similar announcement last week from the Big Ten, which will start its season Oct. 24.

It is unclear when the Pac-12 will release its schedule of games, but a source told ESPN that the conference championship game will be played Dec.
