Here's a complete list of Power 5 teams with at least three conference championships since 2012: Alabama (4), Florida State (3), and Stanford (3).
The Cardinal have six ten-win seasons in the past seven years, and haven't missed a bowl game since 2008.
The first time we did this exercise, after the 2015 season, we used a different formula that counted USC's past accolades and accomplishments. If you look over a longer timeline, the Trojans are the best team in California, but the Cardinal are closing that gap.
