A major error if they don't reshuffle the schedules. Move bedlam forward. UT/OU is fine now. K-State/Ku is fine. ISU ought to play UT at the end. Baylor play Tech. Maybe, TCU/ISU. WVU can play whoever's left, OU I guess. Then the championship.

TCU is, generally, overrated. They're 25-20 in Big 12 play. Saturday's game was a complete mismatch. They adopted the chuck-it-fast offense, which was fine with Boykin back there. But it's a negative with an average QB, like now.

-Sept 16 bye not ideal
-Texas and Oklahoma in back to back weeks. Not as big of a deal as it used to be but still not easy.
-Tom Herman's 1st Big XII game as Texas head coach will be in Ames.
-ISU vs KSU for 2017 Big XII championship game, you heard it first (and probably last). Big XII officials would hate it for so many reasons.

Please no Thursday game. Sucks enough having a bye and @akron in September.

Here's what I don't like, and yes, some of them are unavoidable:

- Only 3 non-con games. Two of them are against in-state teams that hate us
- Early season bye week does no good
- Only 6 home games
- @Akron?
- No late November home games against teams from warmer areas
- Last game against K State - the Vampire has his teams at their best late in the season

Like having KSU as our last game and not West Virginia. They need to be our rivals and the league probably wanted a better game for them near the end of the year.
