Pac-12 Media Day: Larry Scott says the Pac-12 has the toughest schedule in the nation

BURBANK- Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott firmly believes that the Pac-12 conference is the best of the nation and that the 12 teams in the Pac-12 have the toughest road to the college football playoff championship game.

Opening the 2015 Pac-12 Media Day at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, Scott believes that the Pac-12 "is getting there" with regards to national recognition but still deserve more.

"We remain the only conference in the nation to play nine conference games and a conference championship game," Scott said.

In 2014, the Pac-12 tied a conference record with six bowl wins and led the nation with 15 AP All-Americans.
