College News: Big 12 Announces 2022 Conference Schedule

On Wednesday, the Big 12 Conference announced their conference schedule for the 2022 regular season.

The league’s seven teams will begin conference play in Week 7 of the season and each league team – thanks to the odd number of programs that sponsor softball – will have a bye week during the conference slate. Teams that have a bye week in conference play may, obviously, still play out of conference games then.

Important series’ of note involving the league’s trio of Super Regional-appearing teams from last season: Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, and Texas will not face one another until Easter weekend in mid-April. Oklahoma will play Texas in Austin that weekend, while the Longhorns will travel to Stillwater to take on Oklahoma State one week later. Bedlam will close the season for Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, with the Sooners hosting this year’s edition of the archrivalry.

As has been the case for several years, the Big 12 conference tournament will be held in Oklahoma City at Hall of Fame Stadium from May 12-14. The full Big 12 conference schedule is below.
