At this point, all twelve teams are still in the conference for the remainder of the season. And it’s unlikely either of OSU or WSU makes the conference championship.

And, yes, it’s a damn shame what happened to the conference. I blame SC and UCLA, plus an inept commissioner; after the two L.A. schools jumped ship, everything else was just the landslide playing itself out. I’m hoping the Pac-2 manage to pull off a merger with the Mountain West that will allow the whole thing to retain the Pac-12 name, but it will be hard to argue that it would be a “major” conference even so.
