The Big 12 conference has announced media days for the 2020 college football season. They will take place in a virtual format from Sept. 7 through Sept. 11 beginning at 7 p.m. CST each night.
It certainly will be a different format than in years past. The press release from the conference explained how.
“ESPN reporters Matt Schick and Dusty Dvoracek will host the “Media Day” season preview show, which will include comments from head coaches in addition to player interviews conducted by Big 12 Digital Correspondent Morgan Uber. Content will also be posted on the Big 12’s official social media platforms,” the release said.
The schedule for the event is as follows:
Monday, September 7: Baylor and Iowa State
Tuesday, September 8: Kansas and Kansas State
Wednesday, September 9: Oklahoma and Oklahoma State
Thursday, September 10: TCU and Texas
Friday, September 11: Texas Tech and West Virginia
The Big 12 football season is slated to begin on Friday and Saturday, September 11 and 12 with 10 non-conference games. Each program will then play 10 conference games.
“As we go forward, (the ACC, SEC and Big 12) now are finding ourselves working together more frequently. We talk at least a couple times a week, usually more often than that,” Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby said in an exclusive interview with The Flagship Podcast. “If the SEC decided that they had an outbreak or that they had a couple of states that were really not in good shape and they weren't going to be able to go forward and decided that they were going to shut it down, it certainly would have an impact on us, just as if we had those sorts of outbreaks and shut it down, it would have an impact on the ACC and the SEC.
“I don't know that there's any magical critical mass, but I think we've all been told the same things by our doctors and our scientists and that is: Do the things we're telling you, move at the pace that we're suggesting you move, make small adjustments and you have a chance to move this forward. The mitigation things — separation, social distancing, masks, hand washing — they work and they'll continue to work.”
