One thing about next year's schedule bothers me

Two games, then a bye week then SMU. Finish the season with 10 straight games. OSU nearly as bad with 9 games. TCU and OSU are the only B12 teams with all 9 conference games in a row. That week off can mean a lot, especially teams who don't have the depth of OU or Texas, who by the way finish the season off with 5 and 4 straight games, respectively. With treatment like that they will not have to leave early.

We could at least be like Oky State and have the fourth week off, or give the league an option of a later bye week if we did not have a break during our non-conference part of the schedule. Maybe it will get better when we get more teams in. We will still have to manage our non-conference better.

A lot of griping on this board about what the AD should or shouldn't do, but that non-conference part of the schedule seems something much more under his control. If we continue play two-bye-play, we will continue to have to finish the season with 10 straight and limp into the end of the season all beat up.....and Sonny will get the blame.

Can y’all not schedule an early B12 game in week 3? Never understood why you have your bye week before us so early

WTAF is not OUT saddled with this horse [ Finebaum ]. Give every possible disadvantage to OUT.
Replace each of OUTs games with other B12 teams with games with each other.
In this manner, UT can lose to OU 8 times in a row, one for the record books. Hookem!

Like the MWC did to TCU on the way out? Chickenshit. Maybe justified financially and rivalry-wise, but chickenshit.

Once again Bowlsby has a chance to fire a couple of shots across the bow at departing OU and Tex. Maybe make them take their bye week in week one and then schedule all of their games at 11 am

Yep, and make sure as many opponents as possible have bye weeks before OUt.

That both aren't happening is a failure on his part.

Because the conference still panders to OU and Texas. Hoping they take the conference staff with them to the SEC.
Amazing that they continue to carry water for two programs that are part of attempting to kill this conference.

I don’t think next year’s conference schedule is set yet. Baylor and KU played a conference game in Week 3 this year, so it is not impossible we will play an early conference game.

Conferences don’t schedule game times. And check out how many 11AM games Texas had this year.

Can you and the other 4 SMU fans quit being such little [hundinnen ] about losing your coach? It’s embarrassing for you.
