LOS ANGELES—Kickoff times and TV networks have been set for USC's first three football games of the 2025 season.
USC will open the season on Aug. 30 in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum against Missouri State. The game will air at 4:30 p.m. PT on Big Ten Network. Missouri State officially joins Conference USA for the 2025-26 athletic season, thus making it an FBS program. This will be the first time ever that USC has faced Missouri State.
The Trojans then welcome Georgia Southern of the Sun Belt Conference to Los Angeles on Sept. 6 with kickoff set for 4:30 p.m. PT on FS1. The Eagles, who are coached by former USC head coach Clay Helton, are another new opponent for the Trojans.
USC opens Big Ten Conference play on the road at Purdue on Sept. 13 and will kickoff at 12:30 p.m. PT / 3:30 p.m. ET on CBS. The Trojans are 3-1 all-time against the Boilermakers, last facing them in 1998 when USC won 27-17 in the Coliseum.
USC will play seven home games in 2025. Troy will welcome league opponents Michigan State, Michigan, Northwestern, Iowa and UCLA as well as non-conference foes Missouri State and Georgia Southern. USC will visit Purdue, Illinois, Notre Dame, Nebraska and Oregon on the road.
