| The first place team from each division plays in the conference championship game. The third place team from the Big 12, the entire conference, is slated to go to the Holiday Bowl. Colorado was the third place team behind Texas and Texas Tech. Since Colorado lost to Nebraska, I think Nebrask would be the third place team. Texas Tech is the second place team in the conference, but they are in the same division as Texas, so they will not be able to play in the conference championship game. |
