MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The Big 12 Conference announced late Monday that they have adopted a “9+1” schedule format for the 2020 football season. League presidents and chancellors met Monday to discuss scheduling options.

Each Big 12 team will play their traditional round robin conference slate and one additional non-conference game. The league anticipates that conference play will begin in mid-September or late-September, with non-conference games completed prior to the start of league play. The Big 12 school must host the non-conference game. The league schedule will be solidified in the coming weeks.
