The Big Ten as we know it is changing. 2023 is the last year of the configuration that has existed since 2014 when Rutgers and Maryland joined.
With USC and UCLA joining the conference in 2024, the number of teams expands to 16. That means the division scheduling format has to change.
We now know who Michigan football will play in conference, and there are some interesting matchups.
Per usual, the Wolverines will play nine conference games, including rivals Michigan State and Ohio State. The maize and blue will also face both USC and UCLA in Year 1 of the new-look conference, though they will play neither the following year.

2024 will also start the series with Texas in the nonconference schedule with Oklahoma coming after.
