WFH in my childhood bedroom whilst wearing pajamas makes me feel like I’m writing essays for AP Euro rather than articles for WSJ. Perhaps today I’ll put on jeans.

Per Commish @BobBowlsby , Big 12 is considering a conference-only slate that starts Week 0 and ends December 12 (10-11 games; 16 wks). Preference is still 12 games as scheduled, though Board of Directors not expected to make a decision until at least next Monday.
