Pac-12
College sports league
The Pac-12 is an American collegiate athletic conference, historically comprising universities along the Pacific coast.
The name reflects its twelve-member composition, though membership has fluctuated—the conference was previously known as the Pac-10 and Pac-8.
USC and UCLA were Pac-12 rivals for decades.
Recent realignment has dramatically reduced its membership.
