In a major shake-up for college football fans on the West Coast, the University of Southern California (USC) and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) are making a significant scheduling change. Both schools have announced that they will be moving one of their football games up a day, with the new kickoff time falling on a Friday evening. The move is reportedly part of a deal with Fox, which is set to broadcast the games as part of its expanded Friday night lineup. The shift is expected to bring more national attention to the Pac-12 Conference and could have a ripple effect on the scheduling strategies of other teams in the league.
