	The Pac-12 rises above the rest, upholding its tradition as the &quot;Conference of Champions&quot;, claiming an incredible 180 NCAA team titles over the past two decades, including nine in 2010-11, averaging nearly nine championships per academic year. Even more impressive has been the breadth of the Pac-12&#39;s success, with championships coming in 27 different men&#39;s and women&#39;s sports. The Pac-12 has led the nation in NCAA Championships in 45 of the last 51 years and finished second five times.
