The UCLA football team will have a colder introduction to Big Ten play in 2024 than crosstown rival USC.

The Bruins and Trojans knew their opponents, but on Thursday the Big Ten set dates for next season’s conference games. UCLA will play at Rutgers on Oct. 12 and at Nebraska on Nov. 11. The Bruins also face a Penn State trip on Oct. 5, although the New Jersey and Nebraska trips are expected to bring colder temperatures.

UCLA and USC will play against each other every season, but the 2024 Big Ten football schedule features a lot of quirks — and long road trips.

USC’s schedule is mild by comparison, with the Trojans playing at Michigan on Sept. 21 and at Minnesota on Oct. 5. Its final trip East will be at Maryland on Oct. 19.
