It’s official.

Kind of.

On Saturday evening, the Pac-12 announced that North Division champion Washington will meet South Division champion USC in its conference title game at 5 p.m. on Friday. The game will be played at the Los Angeles Coliseum and be broadcast on FOX.

“In a football season that has thrown unprecedented challenges and adversity at our football teams and student-athletes, USC and Washington have performed at the highest levels and earned their places in the 2020 Pac-12 Football Championship Game as the Pac-12 South and North Champions,” Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott said in a statement.

Washington (3-1) won the North by virtue of owning the division’s best winning percentage (.750), despite having to cancel Saturday’s rivalry game at Oregon (3-2) because of a spike of positive COVID-19 cases and subsequent contact tracing within the Huskies’ program. According to a source, UW fell “well below” the Pac-12’s designated minimum of 53 available scholarship players. The conference also requires a scholarship minimum of one quarterback, seven offensive linemen and four defensive linemen for a team to play.
