The 2017 Big 12 Football Championship Game will kick off at 11:30 a.m. on Dec. 2 at AT&T Stadium, which will also host the game each season through 2021.
  Unlike the other Power 5 conferences that have division winners meet in the title game, the Big 12 championship game will match the top two finishers in the overall conference standings. The Big 12, which has 10 teams, is the only conference that features a round-robin schedule, meaning all the teams play each other during the season.
  “There is great anticipation with the return of the Big 12 Football Championship, and we look forward to hosting the event in AT&T Stadium for the next five years,” says Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby. “The building is a state-of-the-art facility and offers many amenities that will be enjoyed by our institutions and fans.”
  FOX will televise this season’s game and in odd-numbered seasons through 2023. ABC/ESPN will televise the 2018 contest and ensuing games in even-numbered seasons through the year 2024.
