With the Trojans announcing in-person classes for the fall semester, USC football looks likely.

If you were hoping for yet another sign of USC football playing out the 2020 season as close to normal as possible, it arrived on Tuesday night.

President Carol Folt announced in an email to students that the USC Fall 2020 semester will include in-person and online classes, beginning on Aug. 17 and ending before Thanksgiving, according to the Daily Trojan.

Combine that message with the Pac-12’s recent approval of athletic activities resuming on campuses this June and you get a very big boost to the prospect of football being played.
