Out of curiosity I looked at USC and UCLA baseball schedule for 2025. Just to see what the Little10 has in store for them.

USC

GWU x 3
@ Irvine
Bakersfield
@ Rice x3
@ Fullerton
UConn
Vanderbilt
UCLA
Santa Barbara
Oregon x3
@Fullerton
@ Michigan x3 (Mid March)
@ Az State
Nebraska x3
Irvine
@ Indiana (Late March)
SDSU
Ohio State x3
@ LMU
@ Penn State (mid April)
Hawai'i
Gonzaga x3
@ Long Beach
@ Minnesota (Late April)
@ Northridge
UCLA x3
@ Santa Barbara
Michigan State x3
Northridge
@ Washington x 3
Big 10 Tourney- Omaha 5/20-5/25

4 road trips to some possibly inhospitable places in upper midwest.
ZERO excuse for the B1G to start a west coast team's conference schedule in Ann Arbor on March 14th!
Even Michigan would rather start the season in SoCal!


UCLA has only released their B1G schedule and theirs is FAR more favorable with only 2 potential cold weather dates. Again, they start the season 2,641 miles away in suburban Baltimore, but at least that's better than Ann Arbor.

3/7-3/9 @ Maryland
3/14-3/16 Nebraska
3/21-3/23 Indiana
3/28-3/30 @ Purdue
4/11-4/13 Washington
4/18-4/20 @ Oregon
4/25-4/27 Penn State
5/2-5/4 @ USC
5/9-5/11 @ Illinois
5/15-5/17 Northwestern


Pac12 baseball was already struggling in recent years.
Being tied to the Big10 may be the final stab in the heart.
The California talent can go to a BigWest and West Coast Conference and play in nothing but good weather in front of bigger crowds than they'll see in the Rust Belt.
There is no logical reason for the four west coast teams not to host the opening weekend every season. Their conference foes would likely appreciate it just as much.
In fact. Let all the west coast teams host the first two weekends and then play the last two weekends on the road after school term is over.

Yeah the Big 10 sucks at baseball. Oregon might have a chance to run that conference. Their baseball team has been pretty good of late.

Gonzaga will benefit greatly , their team is usually a tournament team now can grab that California talent.

If you go by this metric of the past five years, the Big 10 is fairly solid, particularly when you take into account there are about 300 D1 baseball teams.
