Cowboys will not have played for 21 days before they play the Cyclones on 10/24. Good for getting players healthy I guess but also could lead to "rust".

I was sort of looking forward to ISU having a bye while OSU had to play BU next week but as someone else said, 21 days in between games is a long time so maybe OSU will be a bit rusty.

Does this for sure put our game in Dallas on December 19?

I don't see any opportunities for them to make this game up. So I guess OSU will have one less game. How does that work if both teams end up with the same number of losses?
 
Well, the Big 12 championship game was scheduled for either Dec 12 or 19. Looks like this pushes it back to Dec 19.

I worry that some teams could end up playing fewer games than other teams. Don't want that controversy during a season when ISU could win it all. Thanks a lot, Baylor.
 
I don’t quite understand why the Big 12 didn’t give everyone the same two bye weeks. I’m sure there is some logical reason behind it, but I can’t think of what it would be.
TV is the only thing I can think of. When they set the schedule it was only the Big 12, SEC, and ACC playing. I can see the networks asking to not have every team in each conference share bye weeks or inventory will be extremely slim. Now that the Pac 12 and Big Ten are back that isn't an issue anymore.
