The Big 12 Conference formed in 1994 and kicked off in earnest in 1996 with conference play. From the beginning, a Big 12 Championship game was played between the North and South Division winners to determine the champion.
From 2010 to 2016, the championship game was on hiatus as the Big 12 dropped below the NCAA-mandated 12 team requirement to use a championship game to determine the conference winner.
In 2017, the conference championship game returned with a small twist. Instead of division winners, the best two teams by conference record would play for the title.
