Report: Big 12 to Release 2024 Football Schedule by End of Month

The year isn’t even one month old and yet there’s already anticipation about the upcoming Bg 12 college football season as the conference begins a whole new era in the fall. To that end, fans won’t have to wait much longer to start planning.

The Big 12 is set to reveal its full 2024 schedule on Jan. 30, according to The Athletic. While the conference announced matchups for its first 16-team season, and even future years, in November, the dates and order of those games have not yet been made public.

Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark’s statement about the unveiling of each program’s schedules.

“As we look towards the future of this Conference, we are thrilled to introduce the first football scheduling matrix for the new-look Big 12,” said Commissioner Brett Yormark. “I’m grateful to our membership for their support throughout the scheduling process. In this model, competitive balance and student-athlete wellness was prioritized. Rivalries will be protected and new matchups will be introduced – the excitement and parity this Conference is known for will continue for years to come.”

During the first four years of this new Big 12, all teams will play one another at least once home and away. Some matchups will occur over three seasons while others take place in all four. Matchups in 2024 that were also played in 2023 will not repeat at the same site.

The Conference looked to maintain the current 5/4, 4/5 home/away rotation for all 16 members to minimize non conference scheduling disruptions. Other important factors were balancing annual travel by distance and time zones as well as maintaining connectivity to rivalries without compromising a balanced rotation for all teams.

The Big 12 will compete as a 16-team conference for the first time in 2024. Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado and Utah will become members in the summer of 2024 joining Baylor, BYU, UCF, Cincinnati, Houston, Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas Tech and West Virginia.
