Pac-12 Conference football individual awards
Coaches of the Pac-12 Conference bestow the following awards at the end of each football season. The conference was founded in its current form as the Athletic Association of Western Universities in 1959, but traces its roots to the Pacific Coast Conference, founded in 1915. The conference name changed to Pacific-8 Conference in 1968 and Pacific-10 Conference in 1978. The conference's 2011 expansion to 12 members saw the conference formally renamed as the Pac-12 Conference.
After the 2023 season, the Pac-12 lost 10 members to other power conferences, with Oregon State and Washington State as the only remaining members. The conference operated with only those teams in the 2024 and 2025 seasons. The Pac-12 will resume full operation in 2026 with eight football members.
