Pac-12 unveils 7-week football schedule for 2020

The Pac-12 issued its seven-week conference schedule for the 2020 season, which will kick off Nov. 7 at 9 a.m. PT when USC hosts Arizona State.

The conference championship game is set for Dec. 18. Each team will face five divisional opponents and one school from the opposite division before a seventh game on championship weekend.

"The schedule announced today is highlighted by exciting and tough matchups that will showcase the depth of our conference and position our teams well for CFP consideration and postseason bowl opportunities," commissioner Larry Scott said in a statement. "Importantly, our return to football competition will continue to place the health and safety of our student-athletes and all those connected to Pac-12 football as the highest priority."

The schedule includes eight Friday games, including rivalry contests between Oregon and Oregon State, Washington and Washington State, Cal and Stanford, and Arizona and Arizona State.

The Pac-12 said tiebreakers to determine seeds at the end of the season will be finalized in the near future.
