The USC Trojans signed a historic recruiting class, and one prospect in particular was ranked the No. 1 overall recruit in the entire 2026 class.
With the Big Ten set to release the 2026 schedules on Tuesday, one big question remains for the USC Trojans.
As the USC Trojans enter year five under coach Lincoln Riley, how much pressure is mounting for Riley to reach a College Football Playoff with the Trojans?
Will the USC Trojans add any sponsorship patches to their iconic uniforms, now that the NCAA allows teams to add patches to jerseys and apparel?
