USC football 2024 schedule announced with all 12 game dates

We knew which 12 teams the USC Trojans would play in their 2024 football schedule, but now we have game dates as well as the opponents.

The Big Ten released its full schedule grid on Thursday afternoon, enabling USC and the other incoming Big Ten schools to plan their full season schedules. Washington, Oregon and UCLA join USC as new Big Ten football members next year. It’s a new world for the Trojans and the other Pac-12 teams making the switch to a new conference.

Meanwhile, Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado and Utah move to the Big 12 Conference in 2024. Stanford and Cal will go to the Atlantic Coast Conference. Oregon State and Washington State are still figuring out what to do. It will be a year unlike any other in college sports.

Here is the full 2024 USC football schedule, including the game dates and the weeks off for the Trojans:
