Warren, File)Washington has pulled out of the Pac-12 football championship game due to COVID-19 issues in the Huskies program, and Oregon will now play No. We cannot play football. Now the Ducks, the preseason Pac-12 favorites, will take a two-game losing streak into the title game, and Colorado is left without an opponent this weekend. Colorado could schedule another game outside of the conference for Saturday, but the Buffaloes also need to remain on standby for the Pac-12 title game until later in the week.
