Can't play for the conference title unless you win the division title. And we lost the Pac-12 Championship Game against the favored (arguably heavily) Trojans by 3. With a chance to convert a 4th and goal at the 1 that could have been the deciding points.
Also, every year except last (and probably this year too) winning the North has essentially meant winning the conference. You get out of the North, you are generally winning the CC.
