Pac 10: USC, UCLA to be in Pac-12 South, but will still play Cal, Stanford every season

| | Comments (0) |

The Pac-10 released its divisional alignment for when it becomes the Pac-12 next year. As expected, it went with a North/South division and USC and UCLA, which were placed in the South, will split from its Northern Cal partners Cal and Stanford, which were put in the North, along with Washington, Washington State, Oregon and Oregon State.
USC and UCLA will be joined with newbies Utah and Colorado, along with Arizona and Arizona State.
Each school will play five games within its division and four conference non-division games. But Pac-10 commissioner Larry Scott said USC's and UCLA's rivalries with Cal and Stanford will be maintained as the California schools will still face each other every year, meaning, though, that the Northwest schools will only visit the Los Angeles market once every two years.
Commissioner Larry Scott said the divisional alignment is for football only, and that the Pac-12 title game will be played at the conference team with the best overall conference record. The conference will have a formula in place to break ties for both to determine the host and divisional champions, if necessary.
