USC plans to continue its annual tradition of playing Notre Dame. The storied football rivalry began in 1926 and will continue with USC in the Big Ten. A lot will obviously change with USC leaving the Pac-12 but the Trojans will still play UCLA and Notre Dame every season.

I expect UW to be aggressive, one way or the other. Not sure what that will mean, but they’re confident in the value of their media market/brand. https://t.co/fzrx20sRX5

I can't imagine what today feels like for USC folks. In seven months, they've gone from Clay Helton + Pac-12 to Lincoln Riley + Big Ten.
After Oklahoma and Texas went to the SEC, USC suddenly had all the leverage. School administration deserves props for not squandering it.

Recruiting implications for not being in the same conference as USC/UCLA… you do not want to see that. I promise you. #UWtoBIG10

We’ve been headed toward super conferences but I never thought we’d have USC, Ohio State and Michigan in the same conference. This is all about money, that’s no secret. But will this make college football better? If CFB abandons its regional roots entirely, it’s gonna suck.
