On Saturday, the USC football team will travel on the road to Bloomington to face Indiana. With both the Trojans and Hoosiers still alive in the Big Ten and College Football Playoff races, it is a massive game for both teams.
In addition, it will be a notable matchup for USC from a historical perspective. Since joining the Big Ten in 2024, the Trojans have faced 16 of the league's 17 other schools at least once. The lone program that they have not played yet? Why, that would be Indiana.
After this week's game, USC will have faced every other Big Ten school at least once as a member of the conference. By 2028, the Trojans will have both visited every other school in the league and hosted every team at the Coliseum.
We are now three years into USC
in the Big Ten. At this point, the Trojans are no longer the new kid on the block. For opponents, they are now just another team on the schedule—only one located a little farther away than most others.
