IRVING, Texas (AP) — There will be an early Saturday kickoff for the Big 12 Conference football championship game in December.
Big 12 officials announced Wednesday that the Dec. 2 game will be played at 11:30 a.m. Central time at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
It is the Big 12’s first football championship game since 2010, when Oklahoma beat Nebraska 23-20 at the home stadium of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys.
The championship game will match the two teams that finish the regular season with the highest winning percentage in conference play.
