BYU confronts the demons of their earlier season, the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
It's strange how bittersweet BYU's appearance in the Big 12 championship game feels for Cougar fans this season. Sure, as the program's first conference championship game since the turn of the century, the optics of potentially winning the league title in just their third season as a Power Four member make this the most exciting game of the year, and possibly the most exciting in team history (though 1984 might have a thing or two to say about that).
