the PAC as currently formed dates back to directly after the breakup in 59 as when UCLA, USC, Stanford, Cal, and Washington formed the AAWU. they were called the big 5. the group then went to six a few years later with Washington state. they then went to 8 when the Oregon schools rejoined in 64. I don't think they renamed the conference until 68 though. could have been 69. my understanding was they kept the national titles because they view the PAC 8, 10, and 12 as the PCC, just reorganized. so they claim the history of championships going back to when the PCC formed in 1915 because the conference still views the PCC as part of its history
