The Pac-12’s 10-game slate in 2020 could help USC football contend for the conference title.

USC football’s 2020 schedule looks quite a bit different today than it did last month.

The Trojans lost their out of conference schedule when the Pac-12 decided to go conference-only in response to the challenge of the coronavirus pandemic.

As a result, the conference is reportedly on the verge of finalizing a 10-game schedule with each team taking on an additional Pac-12 opponent for this season.

That’s according to Brett McMurphy of Stadium after initial reporting from Jon Wilner of the San Jose Mercury News.
