Championship Weekend Cheering Guide for BYU Football Fans

BYU's NY6 hopes are on life support heading into championship weekend

Heading into the last weekend of the college football season, BYU's NY6 hopes are hanging on by a thread. Earlier this week, we looked at BYU's slim path to a NY6 bowl and the Cougars' odds of sneaking into a NY6 bowl. Today, we present a cheering guide for championship weekend.

Friday, Dec 3rd

6:00 PM (8:00 PM EST) Games

PAC-12 Championship: #10 Oregon vs #17 Utah

TV: ABC

Who to cheer for: Utah

We'll spare the explanations for the other games since they can be found in the linked articles above. A Utah win over Oregon would give BYU a win over a power five champion. That would boost BYU's resume.

Saturday, Dec 4th

10:00 AM (12:00 PM EST) Games

Big 12 Championship: #5 Oklahoma State vs #9 Baylor

TV: ABC

Who to cheer for: Oklahoma State

1:00 PM (3:00 PM EST) Games

Mountain West Championship: Utah State vs #19 San Diego State

Who to cheer for: Utah State

A Utah State win would give BYU a win over a conference champion. While a win over a G5 champion wouldn't help the Cougars as much as a win over a P5 champion, it would still be a last-minute boost to BYU's NY6 resume.

2:00 PM (4:00 PM EST) Games

SEC Championship: #1 Georgia vs #3 Alabama

Who to cheer for: Alabama
