The 2024 Pac-12 Conference football season was the 46th season of Pac-12 football, and took place during the 2024 NCAA Division I FBS football season. Following conference realignment, every member school other than Oregon State and Washington State moved to a different conference for 2024.[a] The season began on August 31, when both teams played their first regular-season game.[2] The season ended on December 27, when Washington State competed in the Holiday Bowl.
On December 5, 2023, it was announced that Oregon State and Washington State had entered into a football alliance with the Mountain West Conference (MWC) for the 2024 season. Per the alliance, both Pac-12 programs played three home games and three away games against MWC opponents.[3]
