So I was curious and bored and tried to look it up. Apparently LSU is usually among the first to announce their schedule and theirs was out mid-July. I looked up for Cincinnati and last year it was announced December 2nd. So my previous guess of December could be right but probably for none of the logical reasons I thought. I'd be more curious to know why LSU announces theirs by mid-July and some other teams don't follow suit within a month, much less within four months.
