The landscape of major college athletics changed once again on Friday as the Pac-12 all but dissolved. In the blink of an eye, six of the ten remaining schools jumped ship leaving the “Conference of Champions” with just Washington State, Oregon State, Cal and Stanford. The other eight schools have officially split with half, USC, UCLA, Oregon and Washington, heading to the Big Ten with the other half, Colorado, Arizona, Arizona State and Utah, joining the Big 12.
It was a wild twist of fates as less than a year ago, it seemed the Big 12 may be destined for dissolution after it’s two crown jewels, Texas and Oklahoma, bolted for the SEC.
