USC Trojans, Washington Huskies Potential Schedule Snafu With L.A. Dodgers, World Series
The USC Trojans will face the Washington Huskies on Nov. 2. It will be week ten of the college football season and November games are almost always a must-watch. However, USC fans may be unable to watch their team play and could have a decision to make.
The USC game is set to air at 4:30 p.m. PT on the Big Ten Network. The World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees could also go to a Game 7. If a Game 7 occurs, it is set for Nov. 2 at 5:08 p.m. PT. This runs the risk of fans having to choose which game to watch.
Of course, there is a chance the World Series ends in fewer games. If that occurs, there will be no issue and Trojans fans can focus on football.
There are options for fans looking to watch both teams. USC will be on the Big Ten Network, while the Dodgers will be on FOX. Fans can watch the games simultaneously, whether they have cable and can flip channels back and forth or have the option to use two separate screens.
As the season is winding down, college football only becomes more important. The Trojans are 3-4 heading into week nine. By week ten, no matter USC’s record, the Trojans will still be fighting for Bowl eligibility. The Huskies and Trojans are new members of the Big Ten coming from the Pac-12. There is a history there, which makes this an important game despite records. If the World Series goes to a Game 7, Trojans fans may have to pick which game to watch.
Game 1 of the World Series is right before the week nine matchup between the USC Trojans and the Rutgers Scarlet Knights on Oct. 25. Though they are not on at the same time, there is a chance that the end of the World Series game goes over the USC game. The World Series begins at 5:08 p.m., while the Trojans kick off at 8 p.m. Both games will be aired on Fox, which means there is a chance of overlap.
Those attempting to attend either Game 1 of the World Series or the USC game against Rutgers should plan well ahead of time. Luckily for traffic sake, USC will be on the road in Seattle vs. Washington while the Game 7 of the World Series will be in L.A.
Fortunately, there is a chance that fans of the Trojans and Dodgers will not have to worry about overlap. Game 1 could end before the kickoff of the USC game and the World Series could end in fewer games.

The Washington Commanders are looking for a bounce back performance from their offense, and they’ll need their wide receivers to take a step up to do so.
Terry McLaurin is the clear No. 1 option at the position, but after him, there are several questions about how the rest of the room will shake out. The No. 2 spot is wide open, and there are several players who could fit the role and others in David Blough’s new scheme. Analysts Santana Moss, Logan Paulsen and Fred Smoot broke down the position on one of the most recent “Command Center” podcast episodes, and as one of the franchise’s all-time best receivers, Moss had a few thoughts on the group. Here’s his assessment on three wideouts and how they could fit into the offense.
“Knowing that he can play both outside and inside, I would think with some of the guys and their size and their experience, I would mainly probably see Antonio attack that middle. I think his route running ability is already to the level of some of these guys who have already played at this level. And just showing me that you don’t look like that this is new to you … He ain’t scared to go out and compete against these guys. To me — and we don’t know anything; we’re just sitting here speculating and assuming — I’d say he’s a slot guy out the gate.”
“I think if I had to just say if I look at that paper, and I asked any coach in this building by name how they think this guy played…if you tell me that Burks played well this offseason, he would be my No. 2 out the gate. He would be my No. 2 wide receiver because one: he brings size, he brings speed, he brings a gear at that size that a lot of people ain’t comfortable checking … You got a guy with size, leaping ability, the catch radius and can run.”
“They talk about how he was one of those guys from Day 1 that could play every position, and that’s stemming from him being a quarterback. Quarterbacks learn the game a little different from just a regular skill position guy. Luke came in here, and he knew X, he knew Z, he knew Gator. When you have those intangibles and you have that kind of mindset when it comes to playing that position, they can use him where they want to use him. That’s why I said he’s a great committee guy. He’s a guy that I know I’m gonna have on special teams as a returner, and guess what? If he’s not the starter, I’m okay with that because I know I’m going to ask more of him if somebody needs to take a breather.
WASHINGTON — The Great American State Fair in Washington, D.C., is featuring Georgia among its participating states. The fair had to close for several hours Friday because of the heat, but reopened to visitors.
Georgia’s booth showcases the state’s No. 1 industry: agriculture. The display focuses on peaches, peanuts, Vidalia onions and poultry.
One fairgoer said Georgia’s agricultural offerings were a surprise.
“I was not aware that you did eggs in Georgia. I should have figured that out since Waffle House is pretty much in every town, but that was a learning, and then, of course going along with eggs is chickens,” the attendee said.
All states are represented at the fair, though not all are participating directly.

Storm Team4 is tracking severe thunderstorms, flood watches and flash flood warnings. See all weather alerts here.
4 things to know about the weather:
- Strong storms and downpours taper off as a cooler pattern settles into the DMV
- Temperatures fall back below normal for early July with highs mainly in the 80s
- Periods of clouds and scattered showers/storms remain possible through midweek
- Humidity stays up there, but the dangerous heat is taking a break (thank goodness)
After a heat wave and some strong thunderstorms, the weather pattern across Washington and the DMV turns noticeably less hot this week.
A frontal boundary settling south of the region will bring cooler temperatures, more clouds, and periodic chances for showers through midweek. While it won’t be a washout, keep the umbrella nearby as unsettled conditions linger. Temperatures remain much more comfortable compared to the recent heat wave.
