Ohio State is sitting at home this weekend thanks to another beatdown at the hands of Michigan for the second year in a row. It’s not a good feeling, but there’s still hope that the Buckeyes can sneak into the College Football Playoff if things break the right way this weekend with the conference championship games.
The game everyone will be keeping their eye on is the Pac-12 Championship game in Las Vegas between USC and Utah. The Utes already beat the Trojans once this year in a classic, and if they can double down, there’s a very good chance that the Buckeyes will be selected over the men of Troy for the College Football Playoff.
The other game that may open the door slightly is the Big 12 Championship game between TCU and Kansas State. If CFP Committee hasn’t been too impressed with the Horned Frogs and may choose Ohio State if they should lose to K-State.
We know you want to keep an eye on these two games, so we have information on how to watch them both. Here’s everything you need to know to check in on USC in the Pac-12 Championship game Friday night, as well as the Big 12 Championship game Saturday.
