The Pac-12 has apparently discussed having a season with 11 conference games (full round robin). Quotes by Shaw appear as well.

I listened to the interviews and it wasn't clear to me that 11 conference games is on the table. The question was about 11 conference games but the response was that a conference only schedule is something that is being discussed and didn't confirm that an 11 game conference schedule was being discussed. I believe the more likely scenario being discussed is eliminating 3 non-conference games and stick to the scheduled 9 conference games. Adding two conference games doesn't serve much purpose. Eliminating 3 games does.
The most interesting part of the interview to me was that Shaw discussed the possibility of Stanford playing football even if all the students aren't back on campus. He said that it may be possible if campus is partially open that student athletes could compete in all sports. I don't know what partially open may mean but it may mean as little as certain graduate programs are back on campus then it could be possible.
