Texas Football: One Big 12 coach says he knows his opponents for 2023

Neal Brown knows who his team is playing. Why don’t we know?

The Big 12 has informed at least one football coach who his team will play in 2023. That is, if West Virginia head coach Neal Brown is to be believed.

Brown said the following of his 2023 Big 12 football schedule.

I know who we are playing, but I don’t know when we are playing them.

The secrecy over the schedule is befuddling, as is its presumed lack of completion. Brown knows his 2023 opponents. Why don’t we know as well?

The SEC announced its 2023 slate in September. In late October, the Big Ten followed with its own schedule. The slow moving Pac-12 announced its set of games on January 18. The Big 12 doesn’t yet have an announcement date.

There’s no reason why conference commissioner Brett Yormark couldn’t let the public know each team’s opponents without the specifics of when and where games would be played. Even so, we’re still waiting for any word of a schedule announcement.

It’s unclear as to what is the hold up for the league, but the Big 12’s indecision is yet another reason for the Longhorns to leave the middling conference.

Texas Football: Big 12 AD pump fakes on 2023 schedule release date

The Big 12 can’t seem to finalize its 2023 schedule.

We almost had an announcement date for the 2023 Big 12 football schedule. Then, we didn’t have one. Continue reading “Texas Football: Big 12 AD pump fakes on 2023 schedule release date”

What to watch with the Longhorns’ 2023 football schedule

The Big 12 schedule will look a lot different in 2023.

With 2022 coming to a close, we eagerly look forward to the 2023 Big 12 Conference schedule release. While the schedule was once designated to be announced on December 1 or mid-December it appears the Big 12 Conference is kicking the can down the road.

Four teams are set to join the conference for the 2023 season. BYU, Cincinnati, Houston and UCF may all want a piece of Oklahoma and Texas, at least for national exposure. That said, plenty of the current members of the league would welcome the opportunity to defeat their rivals one more time.

It’s fair to assume Texas will play its usual in-state foes. TCU and Baylor would likely readily host the Longhorns in front of a rabid home crowd.

Let’s examine what we can anticipate from the schedule.
