I've heard some discussion on this on radio and podcasts. Is there any way that ESPN swaps ISU at Houston and KSU at Texas on Monday, February 19th? As of right now, our game is on ESPNU at 6:00 p.m., and KSU at Texas is at 8:00 p.m. on ESPN, with the later game being the official Big Monday game.

It's pretty obvious at this point that our game has a huge impact on the conference race, and the other one is seemingly meaningless.

I'll say no it won't be moved because it would be a 9pm est tip for a Cincy home game.

I know that's been done before, but that will be their excuse.

I'm pretty sure the schedule is locked at this point.
 
Wish it could move as we are going to be in Phoenix on a golf trip and won't be off the course until 7 or later CST.
 
I assume if they were going to make a change, they already would have. ISU made an announcement of tv/game time changes for Cincy/WVU/K-State last Thursday. My guess is that would be the last tweaks the Big 12 makes, but I could be way off.

How come they can do 6 day windows for football but college basketball has the dates/times/networks already selected before the season even starts. I understand it’s more inventory but surely they could set the dates and then be flexible with the times and networks.
 
in 2015 they flexed and made the right decision as that was the historical comeback game

New to this year’s schedule is a Big 12 “flex pick” on March 2, in which either Baylor at No. 17 Texas or No. 19 Oklahoma at No. 16 Iowa State will be on ESPN as part of Big Monday and the other will be on ESPNU. The network designation will be determined in the weeks leading up to the game.

Cincy and WVU weren't changes. Those were just network determinations that were previously listed as "or".

K-State was the only one where a change was made.
