Texas plans to play a full football schedule

Currently set for 50-percent capacity at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium in 2020, the Texas Longhorns still plan on starting the season against the USF Bulls on Sept. 6, athletics director Chris Del Conte told Kirk Bohls of the Austin American-Statesman on Wednesday.

That means that the Longhorns intend on playing a full 12-game schedule even as the Big Ten and Pac-12 have already canceled non-conference game. Among the Power Five conferences, that leaves the ACC, Big 12, and the SEC as the leagues waiting until late this month to make decisions about potentially shortening the football season.
