More conference realignment could be coming to college sports in 2024 — or sooner.
According to multiple reports, USC and UCLA are planning to leave the Pac-12 to join the Big Ten. Jon Wilner of the San Jose Mercury News was first to report the news.
While the move is not finalized, it would shake up the college sports world, especially in football and basketball. USC and UCLA, two California institutions that have been members of the Pac-12 and its previous iterations since the 1920s, have not yet formally informed the Pac-12 that they want to leave or applied to join the Big Ten.
