Oklahoma has officially lost one game off of its 2020 schedule.
The Sooners were able to maintain their entire 12-game schedule up to this point while schools like Oklahoma State and TCU had lost one or two non-conference games already. That has since changed.
There was a report Wednesday that the SEC was planning on going to a conference-only schedule. The presidents of the SEC adopted a plan Thursday afternoon to do a 10-game, conference-only schedule according to a release from the conference—canceling Oklahoma’s second non-conference game against Tennessee scheduled for Sept. 12.

The Big 12 canceled its virtual media day as well on Thursday that was announced as a go for Monday. The conference is reportedly having an emergency meeting on Thursday afternoon to discuss the 2020 football season.
It is unclear how the Big 12 is going to schedule the 2020 season. The ACC and SEC will play a 10-game conference only schedule with a conference championship game while the Pac-12 and Big 10 will play conference-only games, but have yet to release its models for the season.
Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby is scheduled to meet with the coaches on Monday after the now-canceled Big 12 virtual media day.
