The USC Trojans are almost set to move to the Big 10 after the 2023 season. The move is a strategic decision that promises numerous benefits, particularly in terms of financial opportunities.

Joining the Big 10 conference opens up new revenue streams for USC through increased TV deals, larger fan bases, enhanced sponsorship opportunities, and will likely help them acquire top recruits. 

This move will undoubtedly help them more than it will hurt them. USC's chances of making it to the college football playoff are promising. With the expansion of the playoffs to 12 teams starting next season, the Trojans will have an easier path to qualify for the playoff. 

The increased number of playoff spots means they have a good chance to compete at the highest level, putting them on par with other top contenders in college football.

The move to the Big 10 and the expanded playoff format will undoubtedly change the landscape of college football for USC and its fans. However, experts believe these changes won't negatively impact the Trojans' performance. 

Raymond Lucas Jr. of 247Sports suggests that these adjustments could work in USC's favor, allowing them to prove their mettle and silence their critics.

Obviously, that’s easier said than done, but recruiting players to the Big Ten is a lot easier than the Pac-12 and Riley’s transfer portal mastery could be what leads to instant success in the Big Ten.
