The departure of USC from the Pac-12 conference has been met with a mix of emotions. While it is difficult to accept the loss of a traditionally strong conference, many people are coming to terms with the fact that it was necessary for USC to make this decision. In recent years, the Pac-12 had been struggling financially and had failed to provide opportunities for growth and success for its member schools.
USC’s decision to leave the Pac-12 was not an easy one, but it was ultimately necessary. The conference did not make things any easier for the Trojans, pushing them to explore other options. It is revealed in a recent video from The Voice of College Football that USC joined the Big Ten because they felt they had been mistreated by the Pac-12 and did not want to suffer the consequences of its decline.
While this change will bring an end to cherished college football traditions like Big Ten versus Pac-12 matchups in the Rose Bowl, it is important for us as fans and members of the college football community to move forward and adapt to this new reality. We can still look forward to exciting games and rivalries between USC and their new Big Ten opponents.
