2024 schedule – Hot off the press

WTF, we don’t end with BYU or Colorado? What kind of traveshamockery is this?

So weird being in the same conference as tds and not playing during rivalry week. But considering the season we can have, I’d rather not play them the final week of the season.

That works out well in terms of bye weeks.

OSU and Arizona back to back to start off conference games will be tough. I like the idea that we ought to be healthier for those games earlier in the season (knock on every piece of wood I can find), but I’m a bit concerned with how it seems to take our offensive line several games to get up to speed.

If CR is CR our offensive line should be fine by then.

Just a quick question…the Baylor game is not considered a conference game, correct?

Tradition and rivals are dead. To continue to pretend like it exists in college football is just silly.

Playing AT UCF to end the season sucks.

Holy S**t. UCF’s schedule is so easy. Ours isn’t that hard, but theirs is a cake walk. They get BYU and us and Colorado at home. No Oklahoma State…and everyone else kinda sucks in the Big 12.

They should be in the conference finals.

Zona/ASU play the last weekend, but Kansas/K State play mid-season. Just don’t have all the natural pairs like we did in PAC12 with LA, Bay Area, states of Washington, Oregon, Arizona with Utah/Colorado being odd teams out. Rivalry week really won’t mean much now in the coming years. Not just in the BIG12 but in other conferences too. Too many long term rivalries (Oklahoma/OSU for example) being split up.

I’ll say what we’re all thinking- this is depressing. Our new conference mates may hate it, but its true. You can’t replace the near-perfect conference we had with this, and pretend they are somehow equivalent. Just look at the home schedule. Not to mention, as an academic, the University affiliations actually mattered (I know, no one cares).

But I’ll go silver-linings. Our program is in a position to excel with this group. So I’ll get my ass on board and stop complaining.

Am I seeing this right? Nine conference games, PLUS Baylor as a non-conference?

What has happened? Certainly not as tough as nine Pac-12 conference games, but really nine?

Orlando the last weekend of November sounds nice to me. 🤷‍♂️

I really could not care less when the game with the Y is. My first thoughts were 5 on the road and 4 at home, the bye weeks, everyone has two this year and ours are spaced well, the games I am concerned with – Az, Ok State, and TCU – are one home, two on the road. As for Big 12 rival, I want to see who becomes the greatest challenge to us getting to the CCG. I resist making the game with the Y anything more than another Big 12 game. Potential road games, UCF with grand kids or TCU and the Stockyard with adults. It is what it is for the next few years.
