FAQs: Ohio State vs USC
How can I watch Ohio State vs. USC?
You can watch Ohio State vs. USC on NBC. The matchup will also stream on Surprise Stream (surprisestream.com), which offers a free preview before you subscribe; no preview duration or other access terms are specified.
What time does Ohio State vs. USC kick off?
The kickoff time is not consistent across the schools’ game pages: USC gives 4:30 p.m. local time in Los Angeles, while Ohio State shows 7:30 p.m. Neither listing establishes a time-zone label that resolves the discrepancy, so those pages do not confirm one reliable start time. The USC ticket page still says kickoff is to be determined.
Where is the game, and which team is at home?
USC hosts Ohio State at United Airlines Field at L.A. Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles. It is a Big Ten conference game, making the Coliseum the home venue for the Trojans and an away trip for the Buckeyes.
What should fans know about attending the game at the Coliseum?
The Coliseum advises fans to arrive at the gates at least 60 minutes before kickoff and have mobile tickets downloaded to a digital wallet; printed tickets and screenshots are not accepted. Exposition Park lots are permit-only, with no cash lots during USC football games, and the venue is cashless, accepting credit or debit cards and mobile pay.
Is this game part of a rivalry or special event?
USC identifies the matchup as part of the Big Ten Football Rivalry Series presented by Venmo and tags the date as Trojan Family Weekend. Those designations accompany a conference contest at USC’s home stadium; they do not change the listed competition from a Big Ten game.
