Washington’s loss to Ohio State in the Rose Bowl capped off another difficult and disappointing post-season for the Conference of ex-Champions. The PAC 12 finished with a bowl record of 3-4 finishing ahead of only the AAC (2-5) and the MAC (1-5) in terms of overall win percentage among FBS conferences.
The state of the PAC 12 is certainly a topic worthy of its own deep-dive. Suffice it to note, for now, that the Power 5 is pretty much the Power 4 with the PAC 12 on the verge of slipping down a notch and joining the Group of Five in the minds of the viewing public.
