1st item of clarification for anyone thinking FSU or Clemson jumps ship from the ACC. Their contracts run through 2036 so don't look for the ACC to be impacted unless they choose to add teams which is likely not the case considering they are doing away with the division alignment next year.

Back to USC and UCLA ---crazy to think their baseball, softball, volleyball, swimming, lacrosse, etc teams will be flying across the country on school weeknights to play Penn State, Rutgers, OSU, Michigan, Maryland, etc. So much for academics.

I'm a person that likes newness --- the nuance of USC vs Iowa but give me USC vs Stanford any day of the week --- traditional rivalries are what make college football. I love the Oklahoma and Texas move because they fit right in with that Tex A&M, Bama, Auburn, TN craziness of college football, but the logistics of USC and UCLA traveling east so much has me bewildered ... but I will look forward to USC v OSU and games such as that (although they will likely be in the west division and play Wisc, Iowa, and Nebraska annually.
