Championship week begins Friday night when the Washington Huskies take on the Oregon Ducks for a second time. The game kicks off a loaded set of conference championship games.
The Texas Longhorns have the opportunity to win their first Big 12 title in 14 seasons. That accomplishment is significant in its own right. The Longhorns will have a great chance: They face the struggling Oklahoma State Cowboys.
The Cowboys limped into the conference title game after defeating the Oklahoma Sooners to set up a title run. After the win, the team lost to UCF by 42 points, struggled against the Houston Cougars and defeated BYU in double overtime.
Let’s predict this weekend’s five Power Five conference title matches starting with Friday’s Pac-12 game.
