A Brief History of Stanford in the PAC-12 Championship Game

The PAC-12 didn’t have divisions or a conference championship game until 2011, when the PAC-10 expanded from 10 teams to 12 with the inclusion of Colorado and Utah. Before the inception of the PAC-12 Championship Game, Stanford had won 12 conference championships in the old PCC and PAC-8/10.
