Game gets pushed earlier in season. I don’t care when we play USC as long as we arent forced to squeeze in all our top competition to a September schedule.
Are there other locations that might benefit us? We hit ACC country each year. Florida or Texas work the years we don’t go to CA?
College football landscape is changing and old traditions are being abandoned regardless of whether anyone likes it or not. I think our new AD has the right mindset to blend new arrangements if we are forced to move on from a USC series. The Clemson deal shows flexibility and forward thinking in an ever changing landscape. It takes 2 teams to make a series work and it would seem conference schedules and details might be a major roadblock to our scheduling long lasting series against ‘rivals’ outside of the ACC.
