The College Football Playoff is going to be a hot debate within the next seven days. With the Big 12 and the PAC-12 both still very well alive in the race to land one of the four spots in the College Football Playoff field, conference championship week is going to be very decisive. Even the SEC and Big Ten have a lot on the line in conference championship week. What type of impact will this carry for the Texas football program and the entirety of the Big 12?
As it pertains to the Big 12, the team that has the best shot (or really the only logical path) to making the College Football Playoff is the archrival of the Texas Longhorns football program, the Oklahoma Sooners.
