Rankings from AP Poll

The 2022 Pac-12 Conference football season was the 44th edition of Pac-12 football during the 2022 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The season began on September 1, 2022, and ended with the 2022 Pac-12 Championship Game on December 2, 2022, at Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada.

The Pac-12 is a Power Five Conference under the College Football Playoff format along with the Atlantic Coast Conference, the Big 12 Conference, Big Ten Conference, and the Southeastern Conference.

The 2022 season was the first since the conference expanded to 12 teams in 2011 in which Pac-12 teams are not split into divisions. On May 18, 2022, the NCAA Division I Council approved a rule change that gave conferences complete freedom in choosing the participants in their championship games.[1] On that same day, the Pac-12 announced that effective immediately, the championship game would feature the top two teams in the conference standings. The 2022 schedule, which was based on the conference's former North–South divisional model, did not change; the Pac-12 stated that it was reviewing multiple scheduling models for future seasons.[2]

The Utah Utes’ participation in the 2022 Pac-12 Championship was decided by strength-of-schedule tiebreaker.[3] Oregon, Utah, and Washington finished the regular season in a 3-way tie for 2nd place.[4] Each team has a tied common opponent record and there was a tie for the next highest seed common opponent.

Previous season

[edit]

The Utah Utes defeated Oregon Ducks 38–10 in the Pac-12 Football Championship Game.

Six teams participated in bowl games, finishing with a record of 0–5 & one no contest. Oregon State lost to Utah State in the Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl, 13–24. UCLA & NC State did not play the Holiday Bowl due to Covid issues with UCLA, the game was ruled a no contest. Oregon lost to Oklahoma in the Alamo Bowl, 32–47. Arizona State lost to Wisconsin in the Las Vegas Bowl, 13–20. Washington State lost to Central Michigan in the Sun Bowl, 21–24. Utah lost to Ohio State in the Rose Bowl, 45–48.

All-Americans

[edit]
For the complete All-America selections, see 2022 College Football All-America Team.

Currently, the NCAA compiles consensus all-America teams in the sports of Division I-FBS football and Division I men's basketball using a point system computed from All-America teams named by coaches associations or media sources. The system consists of three points for a first-team honor, two points for second-team honor, and one point for third-team honor. Honorable mention and fourth team or lower recognitions are not accorded any points. College Football All-American consensus teams are compiled by position and the player accumulating the most points at each position is named first team consensus all-American. Currently, the NCAA recognizes All-Americans selected by the AP, AFCA, FWAA, TSN, and the WCFF to determine Consensus and Unanimous All-Americans. Any player named to the First Team by all five of the NCAA-recognized selectors is deemed a Unanimous All-American.[66][67]
