The USC and UCLA football programs shocked the NCAA world on Thursday as both are set to leave the Pac-12 and join the Big Ten as early as 2024.
Itâs a massive move for each conference and Twitter couldnât help but lose their minds over this bombshell decision. Here are some of the wildest reactions from notable names.

If this was 2004 I would be so hyped. https://t.co/E5ohgHGd1t

Both JJ Watt and Cameron Jordan canât believe USC and UCLA are leaving for the Big Ten. Then there is Taylor Lewan, who went to Michigan. He expressed his excitement and wishes this happened in 2004 when he was still a Wolverine. That wouldâve been something for Lewan.
The move isnât 100% done yet, but as Pete Thamel of ESPN reported, itâs only a matter of time:
Spoke to a few sources who called USC and UCLA's move to the Big Ten a formality, with a press conference expected in next 24 hours. Perhaps as soon as tonight. This is essentially done.

The Trojans and Bruins are two of the best football schools in the Pac-12 and they now joined an absolutely stacked Big Ten which consists of Michigan, Ohio State, Michigan State, Penn State, Wisconsin, and more.
Although itâs not coming to fruition for a couple of years, itâs still a huge deal. This will change the entire landscape of the CFB world and especially the Pac-12 and the Big Ten.
Both schools will definitely need to do a lot of traveling as well once they officially become a part of the Big Ten. But, weâll sure be seeing some competitive football.
