The Big Ten conference is looking to make significant changes, proposing a private capital deal for a large investment. The deal will bring in funds for each Big Ten school, but the USC Trojans are one of two programs pushing against the deal.

Bitter rivals need 'unity' for $2.4 billion private equity deal. Michigan has threatened to leave Big Ten if deal goes through. How about Ohio State?

The conference was trying to strike the deal with a California pension fund in exchange for a 10% stake in Big Ten Enterprises.

The Big Ten, one of the superpowers in college football, may be gearing up for some infighting over a $2.4 billion infusion via private equity.

While the cash infusion has received the bulk of the attention, the aspect of the deal that truly matters is the 10-year extension of the Big Ten’s grant-of-rights, from 2036 to 2046. That change would bind all 18 schools together and prevent the blue bloods from leaving everyone behind.

Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks have been hit with a rather stern warning before facing the USC Trojans in a key Big Ten matchup.

No. 7 Oregon is nearly a double-digit favorite at home against No. 15 USC, and the Ducks matchup up well against the Trojans' style of offense.
