The Big Ten and Pac-12 seasons will carry on into championship weekend, and now we know which matchups are on the schedule.
Let’s start with the Pac-12, which will host its championship on Friday night in Los Angeles at The Coliseum. The title game will feature Washington, the Pac-12 North champion, and USC, the Pac-12 South champion. The game will kick off at 5 p.m. locally, 8 p.m. ET.
Of note is the location of the Oregon vs. Colorado game: Los Angeles. The conference wants to have its two divisional second-place finishers on hand in case either USC or Washington cannot play. Washington was unable to play against Oregon over the weekend due to COVID-19 issues within the UW program.
Additionally, Arizona and Cal have been placed together with a game time to be determined. Cal had to cancel Saturday’s game against Washington State after a player tested positive for COVID-19 and subsequent contact tracing decimated a position group. Arizona, meanwhile, just fired head coach Kevin Sumlin after a 70-7 loss to Arizona State.
The full Pac-12 schedule is below, with all games scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 19 (all times ET) other than the championship game.
