For the 6th consecutive season, Arlington will host the Big 12 championship game on Saturday.
Here's what you need to know to be game-day ready.
Who's playing
- TCU (12-0 overall, 9-0 conference): The Horned Frogs are on a journey to show the nation that they're legitimate title contenders. A win grants them that chance and their very first entry into the College Football Playoff since its inception in 2014.
- Kansas State (9-3 overall, 7-2 conference): The Wildcats have been sneaky good all season and are in great position to avenge their 38-28 loss to TCU in Fort Worth earlier this season. This would be Kansas State's first Big 12 title in a decade.
