USC's Anticipated Week Five Showdown Gets Official Start Time

This should be a great matchup!

The USC Trojans have started out the 2023 season with a bang. They are 3-0 on the year and have done so while looking dominating against their opponents.

Through three weeks, the biggest question mark surrounding this team has been answered, as their defensive unit has looked up to par. But now the Trojans will be getting into the heart of their schedule, and this is where they will make their money this season.

Defeating teams that they should beat is one thing, but now the real competition begins. They head to Arizona State this weekend for a date with the Sun Devils, and after that game, they will get ready for a highly anticipated matchup.

USC will be traveling to Boulder to take on the upstart Colorado Buffalos. Colorado has made headlines this season with their start behind the leadership of head coach Deion Sanders. This will be a game that the Trojans must win if they want to stay alive in the race for the College Football Playoff.

We now know that the kickoff between the two teams will be an early one out west. The game is scheduled to start at 9 a.m. PT, so fans will need to be awake bright and early to see this game.

It’s a little strange that they didn’t put this game into a prime slot, but it should be the game of the morning if anything. Both sides know what is at stake with this matchup, so it should be a really fun game.

If the Trojans can come away with a win, it would be huge for their resume this season. They will need to pretty much stay undefeated all season if they want to reach their goals of winning a National Championship.

Colorado will provide them with some challenges, especially with the game being on the road. But this Trojans team seems ready to embrace anything in front of them.
