The Big East released its home-and-away football schedules for next season on Tuesday, and most notably, the league has departing members Rutgers and Louisville taking trips to Boise State.

The 2013 season will be the first featuring a 12-team Big East format and two divisions, with new members Boise State, San Diego State, UCF, SMU, Houston and Memphis joining. But it is another lame duck year for the conference because Rutgers and Louisville have announced intentions to join other leagues -- Rutgers will move to the Big Ten and Louisville to the ACC.

Their departure dates are up in the air, pending a resolution with the league. Rutgers already has filed a lawsuit against the Big East to get out of the required 27-month waiting period.

Among the other notable highlights of next season's conference schedule:

• Cincinnati and SMU take trips to both sides of the country for games against San Diego State and South Florida. USF and UCF do not have to take a trip out West, as neither plays at Boise State or San Diego State.

• Boise State gets Houston, Louisville, Memphis and Rutgers at home, but must travel to Cincinnati, San Diego State, SMU and Temple. That gives the Broncos two trips into the Eastern Time Zone.

• As for Louisville -- expected to be the preseason favorite yet again -- the Cardinals get UCF, Memphis and San Diego State at home. Rutgers must play at Boise State and Louisville, while Memphis is the only other school that must play those two teams on the road.

Speaking of 2013, I'll be looking to put together a TBP garhering at the Michigan State game assuming it stays on the schedule.

I saw that. My guess would be because the Big East sees us as 0 and 0.

Setup ucf for their super bowl. Guaranteed it will be their first Big East game.

Tougher game than Michigan State, because that'll be the biggest game of those kids careers. All the hype will make Orlando a violent place. Worse than years ago. I'll be staying at home and watching on TV not going near the special needs university

The best games on our schedule may never be played again: Miami, Louisville, Rutgers, and Cinci and UConn most likely.

We have Tulane and ECU to look forward to.
