Championship Weekend Cheering Guide for BYU Football Fans
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.
