TCU to play eight straight games to close out 2017 campaign | Next year's Big 12 schedule released

The Big 12 schedule for the 2017 season was released today, giving insight into what the Horned Frogs will face in their next campaign.

Here's three things TCU fans need to know about next year's schedule.

The bye week is early in the year.

The addition of a Big 12 Championship Game means that there's no longer a full slate of conference games on the weekend after Thanksgiving week, and so the number of bye weeks has been reduced from two to one. TCU's empty weekend comes on September 30, in between an away game at Oklahoma State and a home game at West Virginia.
