The USC Trojans football team will play seven of its 12 games at the Coliseum next year, including the season opener against Rice and the season finale against longtime rival Notre Dame, the school announced Thursday.
The Trojans’ 2022 schedule, announced by the Pacific 12 Conference, is as follows:
— Sept. 3, Rice
— Sept. 10, at Stanford

The Trojans, coming off a disappointing 4-8 season, will be led by new head coach Lincoln Riley in 2022 after USC hired Riley away from Oklahoma.
Kickoff times and television coverage will be announced at a later date. All games will be nationally televised by either the ESPN channels, ABC, FOX, FOX Sports 1 or Pac-12 Networks.
The Pac-12 Championship Game will be held on Dec. 2 in Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
