College football’s conference championship week values quality over quantity, and we’ve got plenty of quality this week to talk about in the binge-watch guide.
Conference championship week is upon us, which means that for one last week, we have extremely compelling and impactful football to watch before we move on to bowl games. That comes to us in the form of 10 conference championship games, several makeup games, and a couple FCS playoff bouts.
All of that combines for a not quite full, but very dense weekend of college football, including four games with pretty serious playoff implications in the Big Ten, ACC, SEC and Big 12, as well as some awesome football in the AAC, MWC and Conference USA. While we won’t have nearly as many suggestions as usual, the games that I do suggest will almost certainly deliver plenty of entertainment.
Before we get to the picks, let’s look back at last week’s results. I hit on 11 of my 14 picks, or roughly 79 percent, which brings my season percentage up to 74.32. Seeing how I set out with a regular season goal of 60 percent, I’m very happy with how this year has gone. Let’s get picking!
