history, maybe except for those two Pac-12 titles (never mind that they lost the bowl games). Can’t blame them too much for celebrating them so much, when they have had very little to celebrate. This is a program that has only won 5 outright conference titles (8 in total, including co-championships) since the WAC was formed in 1962, and those Rose Bowl years were two of them.
That’s 5 conference championships in 62 years of conference play. And it was only 3 before their Rose Bowl years. Of course they’re going to be excited over 2 in a row.
