After 13 weeks of chaos, it all comes down to this. The final week of the regular season will decide which two teams are headed to Arlington for the 2024 Big 12 Championship Game.
One of the teams tied for first place, BYU (9-2, 6-2), will finish up its regular season with a home tilt against the Houston Cougars (4-7, 3-5).
Here’s how you can catch the game and how it is expected to play out.

BYU vs. Houston: Prediction and Projections
Had Houston found a way to beat Arizona or Baylor and have five wins coming into this game, I’d probably have this game circled as a chaos-catalyst. However, the Coogs being locked out of bowl contention kind of kills the vibes for them a bit. Still, Willie Fritz is a master of keeping his team in games that they shouldn’t be in, and this matchup fits that mold. BYU is on a two-game losing streak, and both of them have been close. If this contest is within one-score late in the fourth, I’d be very nervous for the home team. However, I’m going to say that with everything that’s on the line for BYU, they find a way to pull away in the second half and win fairly convincingly.
