Arizona St. vs USC
November 7, 2020
USC opens its 2020 slate at home on Nov. 7 against Arizona State, with kickoff at 9 a.m. PT on FOX. FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff pregame show, featuring Trojan legends Matt Leinart and Reggie Bush along with Brady Quinn, Urban Meyer and host Rob Stone, will be broadcast live from the Coliseum starting at 7 a.m. PT.
It is the earliest kickoff time for a Trojan home game since at least the early 1950s when complete records are available (a home contest against Loyola in the 1891 season began at 9:30 a.m.), as well as USC’s first pre-noon kickoff since an 11 a.m. home start against Utah State in 2016. It also marks the latest date that USC has started a season since 1918, when the Trojans opened against Stanford on Nov. 23 because public gatherings in Los Angeles were banned in October due to the Spanish flu. And it is the 10th consecutive year that USC plays the Pac-12’s first conference game of the year.
