Wildcats have early test hosting Oklahoma State in 2012

The Pac-12 released the 2012 football schedule with the first conference game on Saturday, Sept. 15 at Stanford.

With a new television deal all the conference games will be broadcast nationally, the first time in the history of the conference. A lots of coaching changes also makes the start of the 2012 football season very intriguing.

On the non-conference slate, week two features four games against national powerhouses with Arizona hosting Oklahoma State, UCLA plays Nebraska in the Rose Bowl, Wisconsin travels to Oregon State and Washington travels to LSU.

The Territorial Cup rivalry game between Arizona and Arizona State returns to the last game on the regular-season schedule.
