The Pac-12 is officially back—and bigger than ever! After a turbulent four-year collapse that saw USC, UCLA, Oregon, Washington, and others bolt for other conferences, the Pac-12 has pulled off a stunning comeback. Under new commissioner Teresa Gould, they’ve welcomed seven full-time members—including Boise State, Colorado State, Gonzaga, and Utah State—set to debut in the 2026-27 season. This expansion not only preserves their FBS status and NCAA tournament bids but also adds affiliate schools for Olympic sports. It’s a bold, fresh start for one of college sports’ most storied conferences.
