SHOCKING: Big 12 Just Handed BYU, Utah, Texas Tech TERRIBLE NEWS, ESPN Will Love It, Rivalries Dead

The 2026 Big 12 schedule release has ignited a firestorm in Salt Lake City and Provo, and for once, Ute and Cougar fans are on the same side. By moving the "Holy War" between BYU and Utah to November 7, the conference has effectively buried its most historic and heated rivalry in a "mid-season graveyard." Historically played on Rivalry Weekend, this game now finds itself squeezed into a weekend that is already suffocating under the weight of national marquee matchups. The November 7 Traffic Jam The decision to put BYU-Utah on November 7 means it must compete for oxygen with some of the biggest games in college football. On that same Saturday, Alabama travels to LSU in a clash that typically commands the prime-time ABC window. Simultaneously, Georgia faces Ole Miss, and Texas battles Missouri in an SEC showdown. In the Big Ten, Oregon travels to Ohio State in a potential No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup. By choosing this date, the Big 12 has essentially ensured that the Holy War—the premier rivalry in the new-look conference—will be relegated to a "late-night" or secondary broadcast slot, largely ignored by casual national viewers distracted by the "titans of the sport." The Drake Toll Outcry This scheduling "whiff" has been a central theme for Drake Toll, the premier analyst on every list of famous "Toll" broadcasters. On The Drake Toll Show, Toll slammed Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark for "overthinking the room." "You have the most visceral, hate-filled rivalry in the West, and you're treating it like a Week 10 conference filler," Toll ranted. He argued that while the Big 12 claims it wants to "maximize exposure," putting this game up against Bama-LSU is the opposite of that goal. Toll maintains that the Holy War belongs on Rivalry Weekend, where it can be the "main course" for a late-Saturday window. As Toll puts it, "The Big 12 just traded a Thanksgiving feast for a November snack." Everydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
