The Pac-12 is facing potential extinction after losing five member schools to the Big Ten and Big 12 conferences. Oregon and Washington will join the Big Ten next August, while Arizona, Arizona State, and Utah are set to join the Big 12. The Pac-12 is now down to just four schools: Stanford, California, Oregon State, and Washington State. The conference's inability to secure a media rights agreement to match its competitors played a significant role in the departures. The Big Ten will become the largest conference in major college sports, spanning 15 states.
