Arizona's Upset Locks BYU, Texas Tech into Big 12 Championship
29 Nov, 2025
Summary
- BYU and Texas Tech will meet in the Big 12 Championship Game.
- Arizona's upset win over Arizona State secured the matchup.
- The championship game is scheduled for December 6th in Arlington, Texas.
The stage is set for the Big 12 Championship Game, with BYU and Texas Tech clinching their spots before Saturday's games. An pivotal road upset by Arizona against Arizona State confirmed the championship matchup, irrespective of BYU and Texas Tech's own game results. This victory for Arizona also significantly enhances BYU's prospects for an at-large College Football Playoff bid.
The Wildcats' win is crucial as it adds another strong result to BYU's resume, potentially positioning them favorably in the rankings. With Utah already highly ranked, these wins solidify BYU's standing. The championship game is slated for Saturday, December 6, at the Dallas Cowboys stadium in Arlington, Texas, with an 11 AM CT kickoff on ABC.
This title game will feature a rematch between BYU and Texas Tech. Earlier this month, the Red Raiders defeated BYU 29-7 in Lubbock. Now, BYU has an opportunity to not only compete for the Big 12 title but also to make a strong case for inclusion in the College Football Playoff as an underdog.
