Is a Split Semester Fooball Schedule in Play for Oklahoma State this Year?

When I wrote about what a 2020-21 college football season could look like for Oklahoma State, I envisioned it as 12 or 14 consecutive weeks. What I didn’t envision is something Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby proposed to the Athletic recently.

“I actually think we have a chance to start on time,” Bowlsby told the Athletic. “Whether or not we can get the season done is another matter. When flu season starts again in November and December, you could see that ship sink in a hurry. One of the models we’re looking at is a split season where some games happen in the fall and some happen in the spring.
