Dec. 3 at West Virginia

Initial thoughts
>Pretty heavy at the back end against with no bye for the remaining six games.

>Always like the Texas Tech game at AT&T Stadium for Thanksgiving weekend. It could be that the Big 12 likes to have Baylor come up to DFW that weekend judging by the way its worked out the last several years. But you always have to take into account that Texas Tech and TCU rotate to Austin for Thanksgiving. TCU's turn is next year.

>Trip to West Virginia for Dec. 3 could mean who knows as far as the weather is concerned.

>Road trips to Texas and Oklahoma only separated by the 112th meeting with TCU.

>Regardless of what you think of it, you still have to play everybody at some point. I'm sure some would have liked Kansas and Iowa State mixed into the middle of the last six. But this is what happens when people think your program is really good and is going to be a contender year in and year out. The conference needs the visibility from its best programs at the home stretch.
