The Big Ten is moving the USC-Rutgers game to a Friday night (Oct. 25).
A Pac-12-type move!
Even worse it will kick off at 8 p.m. The game was supposed to be Oct. 26. It will be on Fox Network. Even worse, it will follow Game 1 of the World Series. So that means no way the start of the game is on Fox, right? What’s the backup channel?
USC is now forced to switch its Parents Weekend to the Wisconsin game on Sept. 28.
- USC has received a commitment from nose tackle Gavin Meyer, who played at Wyoming the past four seasons. Meyer had 66 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss and 4 sacks the past 2 seasons. Does this solve any defensive line woes?
InsideUSC with Scott Wolf 
We needed Harmon but Oregon outbid us. There is a weak spot in the middle of the defense. Meyer will give us some depth but we are still soft in the middle of the d line.

As suspected none of the networks wanted that SC-Rutgers game
SC gets a recruit who had 2 1/2 tackles per game the past 2-years, so apparently SC thought that was pretty good

another large body on the ‘D’ line makes them 2 deep ,and less injury prone due to fatigue…a good thing in most football oriented minds

Thanks for the advance warning. Will definitely be selling my tickets for the Rutgers game.
Unreal, I thought we would avoid stupid weeknight games.
I bet Michigan, OSU and Penn State will not have Friday evening games.

Not pouting, just expressing my disappointment with the Networks, USC and our new conference, the B10.
I would have bet the farm that this game would be 5pm start but obviously I was wrong.
USC has obviously lost its clout unlike Michigan, tOSU and Penn State.

Have to admit Scott’s right about the 11:00 pm EST kickoff which matters because USC opponent Rutgers is the sole Div 1 program within 50+ miles of NYC. Then again if the NYY fail to make it to ‘the Fall Classic’ maybe they’ll ‘deign’ to take a view and root against ‘ANYTHING’ from LA.

I love in mid orange county does that count. People are going to leave early. I don’t see too many staying until the end when USC puts 50 on Rutgers

I did not read a lead article of SC’s victory over UT 7 – 6 yesterday …. a 3 run rally in the bottom of the 8th – next up OR 2:30 pm PDT.

Yeah, not as if Kamala called Joe a racist sack of shit during the debates, then giggled like a schoolgirl when he asked her to be his running mate. (Completely oblivious to the fact she only had two qualifications for being asked.)

So Cal,
She only had one qualification and that was getting on all fours and have Will Brown interview her from behind. She is not fit to be a Dairy Queen employee.

“You’re only as good as your last game” may hold true in football with its limited number of games, whereas in basketball’s ’82’ and baseball’s ‘162’ there are a lot of games a player can mess up in and not be noticed

But it did take a Herculean effort to overtake Denver’s 20-point lead in the second half, wondering what is going through Denvers’ minds as they hopelessly watch their sure-win game turn to losing

So SC-Rutgers gets moved around a bit, welcome to trying to assemble 18 colleges into a ‘schedule’

A ‘Big-10′ or ’18’ ad reads “The Big-10 regularly dominates college football, an essential aspect of student life”– Sounds like the midwest kids take their sports more seriously than here in L.A.
