Big 12 championship game tracker: What’s on the line for Utah, BYU and others in Week 11
The league race will take further shape with several important games this weekend.
As the regular season winds down, only three teams have been mathematically eliminated from the Big 12 championship race: Colorado, Kansas, and Kansas State. The stakes are high, with Utah currently having a 91.5% chance of making the championship game, according to Big12ology analytics. Texas Tech follows at 37.7%, and Houston, BYU, Oklahoma State, Arizona, and Baylor round out the top seven teams with over a 1% chance.
ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI) predicts Utah has the best odds of winning the Big 12 championship (55.8%) and making the College Football Playoff (89.7%). BYU, Texas Tech, and Houston rank third (18.1%), fourth (13.5%), and fifth (8.2%) respectively in FPI's most likely teams to win the championship. A win for any of these teams could significantly boost their odds of both winning the Big 12 championship and making the College Football Playoff.
