USC Launches 48-Hour Ticket Sale for Anticipated Ohio State Clash at Coliseum

For the first time in 15 years, USC football is set to welcome Ohio State to the LA Memorial Coliseum on October 31. This matchup is expected to be one of the marquee events of the 2026 college football season, featuring a storied rivalry between two powerhouse programs. Ohio State boasts nine national championships, including two titles earned during the College Football Playoff era, while USC aims for its inaugural CFP appearance this year.

On Tuesday, USC announced a limited-time, 48-hour ticket sale for fans eager to attend this highly anticipated game. Ticket prices range from $225 to $900, with each fan able to purchase up to four tickets.

The Trojans historically lead their series against the Buckeyes, with 13 wins, 10 losses, and one tie. Although both teams have been part of the Big Ten conference for the last two seasons, they have not faced off since the 2017 Cotton Bowl Classic, where Ohio State emerged victorious with a score of 27-4.

As part of their 2026 schedule, USC will also host other Big Ten teams at the Coliseum. The Trojans' home opener in the conference will be against Oregon on September 26, followed by a matchup with Washington on October 3. After the Ohio State game, USC will round out its home schedule against Maryland on November 21.

Before diving into conference play, USC will host three non-conference games, starting with San Jose State on August 29, followed by matchups against Fresno State and Louisiana. This season promises to be exciting for Trojans fans.
