College football conference championship game schedule 2022: Matchups, dates, times

Looking at the 2022 college football conference championship game schedule to see the title game matchups and all you need to know to watch. 

The regular season is over and, for as good as Rivalry Week was, we now move into the 2022 college football conference championship game schedule and what should be a fascinating slate of games.

After the end of the regular season, only three teams in the country — Georgia, Michigan, TCU — remain undefeated and all three will be in action competing for their conference championship. But on a grander scale, they also might already have their respective spots in the College Football Playoff locked up.

USC will be in the Pac-12 title game as well and has the clearest path to making it to the Playoff of any other team. And outside of the Playoff, the AAC title game between UCF and Tulane will determine the highest-ranked Group of 5 team and there will be a ton of terrific football from the best teams in the country.

You won’t want to miss a second of the action between Friday, Dec. 2 and Saturday, Dec. 3, so we have the college football conference championship game schedule along with the standard viewing information you’ll need to watch.
