Fri., Dec. 1 or Sat., Dec. 2: Pac-12 Football Championship Game (ESPN)

COLORADO (10-2) VS WASHINGTON (11-1)

The Colorado Buffalos hold on for the PAC-12 South Title and earn the opportunity to unseat the PAC-12 Champion Washington Huskies from the throne. Despite the heralding praises bestowed upon USC, this is not the year for the Trojans.

While some would hope for USC, the Buffalos are not ready to relinquish their previous season’s title just yet.

Bye Some Bison!

Like the previous year’s matchup, the Washington Huskies have this game well in hand. And the Huskies , the Huskies get plenty of action from Myles Gaskin once more.  But Lavon Coleman is the hero.  Sliding out to the flat, the Huskies running back becomes the unaccounted for receiver.

Daylight means lots of running room.

Colorado is frustrated by the balanced offensive attack, and struggle to get an momentum going . They simply cannot find the key to win against this very motivated opponent.  In the end, the Washington Huskies defense rises to the challenge.   Pass defense becomes very stingy, holding Colorado to just under 200 yards passing.

The Washington Huskies improve to 12-1, and await the nation’s decision for an NCAA playoff invitation.
