It’s never too early to look ahead to college football, and breaking down nonconference schedules is a good place to start.
Here’s a ranking and breakdown of nonconference slates in the Big 12 – but first, let’s look at a few interesting notes.
• Only West Virginia scheduled more than one Power Five school.
• Houston, OU and UCF play no Power Five programs.
• Texas Tech and West Virginia are the only schools to open the year on the road.
• Wyoming plays more Big 12 Texas schools than OSU.
• UCF has the longest nonconference road trip – a 37-hour drive.
