Pac-12 Division Possibilities Being Floated

With the University of Colorado officially joining the Pac-12 for the 2011 season, it’s time to start analyzing how the new 12 team league will break down.

Chip Brown of Orangebloods.com has reported this likely divisional breakdown:

North Division

Washington
Washington State
Oregon
Oregon State
Colorado
Utah

South Division
Stanford
California
USC
UCLA
Arizona
Arizona State

These proposed divisions would keep the natural rivalries inherent in the current Pac-10 intact, especially the Apple Cup between Washington schools and the Civil War between Oregon schools. As an added benefit, it places newcomers Colorado and Utah in the same division with the hope they form a potential geographical rivalry.
