Big 12 Predictions: Will Deion Sanders lead Colorado to the Big 12 Championship?

As the only team left in the Big 12 race that has not lost, BYU has taken full control of the race. In the Big 12, only one other team has less than two losses.

Colorado has done really well in the Big 12. By beating everyone else, it can get into the conference title game. So what if Coach Prime’s Buffaloes lose a game along the way? They might still make it in.

Yes, the Buffs will be in the Big 12 Championship and have a chance to play in the College Football Playoff if they beat Utah, Kansas, and Oklahoma State.

Here are our picks for every remaining Big 12 game. But first…

Colorado should be favorites in its last three games, but the fact that it lost to Kansas State earlier in the year is important. If the Wildcats win all of their games and the Buffaloes lose one, tiebreakers will be used to decide who wins.

It is likely that BYU will get one more win. It already played most of the tough games, but Arizona State is still on the schedule. The Cougars are in the Big 12 Championship because they have won two of their last three games.

Arizona, Oklahoma State, Utah, and Kansas are likely to be the only four Big 12 teams that do not get to go to a bowl game. A lot of people thought these four would be the best in their conference before the season.
