New College Football Playoff scheduling rule will affect USC

This week, what had been in the works for a while became official: The College Football Playoff is expanding to 24 teams beginning next year.

Oh yes: The shuttle is now in launch position, something that may simultaneously drop jaws and inspire "wows" from those in the vicinity. The center debuts Nov. 13 and tickets are free (there is a $4 fee when booked online).
