    Tunnel Vision: Previewing USC's important home contest against Michigan
    2025/10/10
    On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple-Double") and intern India Otto are back in studio taking a detailed look at USC's next opponent, the Michigan Wolverines. After Michigan's early season road loss at Oklahoma, the Wolverines have been playing better football and bringing along five-star freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood. USC had a great 4-0 start to the season before getting derailed at Illinois two weeks ago. Both teams have aspirations of making the college football playoff, but a loss on Saturday likely would derail those dreams. For the Trojans, this is easily one of the most important games in Lincoln Riley's tenure. With a bye week to get healthy and work on some of the Trojans defensive issues, it is imperative that Riley's squad comes out and plays good, clean football against one of the biggest brands in the Big Ten. USC has yet to have a signature win in its new conference and could get one if the Trojans can take care of business Saturday in the Coliseum. The crew talks about what USC was able to do during the bye week to get healthy while getting ready for Michigan, what some of the major matchups are against the Wolverines and finish the show with their score predictions for the game. This is the podcast version of our Tunnel Vision video show. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE for 30% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

  • Trojans prepare to take on Michigan after getting healthier during the bye week

    Trojans prepare to take on Michigan after getting healthier during the bye week
    2025/10/08
    In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back to discuss how the Trojans used the bye week to get healthy and prepare for one of the most important games on the schedule, a home contest against the No. 15 Michigan Wolverines. After USC fell to Illinois as a touchdown favorite, Saturday's Coliseum matchup against the powerhouse in Maize and Blue becomes an almost must-win situation for Lincoln Riley's squad, especially with road trip to South Bend on deck. The guys go over some of the key matchups for this game, including a powerful Michigan ground game that could keep Jayden Maiava and the USC offense off the field for long stretches at a time. The Wolverines also rank in the top-20 in most of the major defensive categories, including forced turnovers and passes defensed. If Michigan can slow down the Trojan run game, it could come down to Maiava outdueling the stingy UM secondary. Ryan and Connor really want to the Trojans play a clean football game, limiting the major mistakes and forcing Michigan to outplay and outscore USC in the friendly confines of the Coliseum, far away from Ann Arbor. ⁠CLICK HERE for 30% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

    Helium Boys Podcast: USC refocuses off bye week for No. 15 Michigan, shark cage diving & ranking monsters
    2025/10/07
    Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return for another episode of the Helium Boys Podcast off a long bye week for the Trojans. Chris spends his 'Two-Minute Drill' talking about the marquee blue-blood matchup that will be happening in the Coliseum this weekend, a sold-out game. Shotgun takes the time to discuss his bye week activities, which featured him attending a college football game off the clock. The two analysts spend the first half of the show breaking down No. 15 Michigan (4-1, 2-0), including its elite run game and run defense. No surprise that Michigan is powered by the run game on offense, currently No. 16 in the nation at 237.8 yards per game and 6.39 yards per carry, sixth in the country. Michigan has rushed for 17 touchdowns, tied for eighth in the country with USC. Alabama transfer Justice Haynes currently leads the Big Ten with 654 rushing yards and eight scores, third in the conference. Jordan Marshall is averaging 5.2 yards per carry as the backup with three rushing scores as well. After a break, the Helium Boys talk a little bit about their recent Top 30 Most Important Trojans midseason re-rank, looking at some of the biggest risers and fallers. They also take on some listener questions with some Take It or Leave It. Finally, Shotgun is asked to blind rank some iconic Halloween and horror monsters and discusses shark cage diving.

  • In-season re-rank of USCfootball.com's Top 30 Most Important Trojans for 2025

    In-season re-rank of USCfootball.com's Top 30 Most Important Trojans for 2025
    2025/10/05
    Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino are back together for a special behind-the-scenes edition of the Helium Boys Podcast. The Helium Boys work through the process of compiling and debating an in-season re-rank of USCfootball.com's Top 30 Most Important Trojans' list after five games of action. For the last six seasons, the USCfootball.com staff has counted down the Top 30 Most Important Trojans in a series of offseason articles leading up to the kickoff of fall camp. But we've never attempted an in-season re-rank, so this was a little bit of a new endeavor building off a familiar foundation. As always, each USCfootball.com staff member submits his own list of whom he/she believes will be the most important Trojans. Considerations for the rankings factor in a number of items including positional depth, prior stats, overall talent, projected development and expectations. The only guidance we try to follow is that the most important factor for placement is if this particular player was lost for the season, how detrimental would it be to the team and the overall success of the season. The individual lists are submitted and compiled before Shotgun and Chris come together to sift through the information, debate and assemble the official USCfootball.com rankings. In this podcast, the Helium Boys give you a peek behind the curtain, allowing you to listen in on the re-rankings discussion as we sift, sort and come up with our final rankings for our first-ever in-season re-rank. There were some notable high risers, including the tight ends who have been much bigger weapons than we anticipated. There were also a couple of players that had been in position battles that have taken the starting mantle and excelled. There also have been some players whose importance declined through a lack of impact play. Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠!

    2025/10/02
    The USC Triple-Double Podcast -- the Peristyle Podcast's basketball-focused podcast -- returns with co-hosts Shotgun Spratling and Connor Morrissette (aka Mr. Triple Double) breaking down the latest news and notes surrounding the USC men's and women's basketball programs, including JuJu Watkins announcing that she will redshirt this season to focus on her recovery and rehab from a torn ACL and a banged and bruised men's team practicing without its three top players. The podcasting duo are also joined by 6-foot-9 Samford transfer Jaden Brownell, who talks about how his basketball journey has taken him from Salt Lake City to Chicago to Birmingham and now back to the West in Los Angeles. He discusses how the preseason practices have been going for the Trojans and what he needs to do to earn minutes on a roster that has a unique blend of big men. Brownell talks about his relationship with Musselman and how different the practices have been at USC compared to Brownell's previous collegiate stops. He also discusses how he has adjusted to life in Los Angeles as a new husband after getting married a couple months ago and gives his thoughts on who is the team's best bowler. After a break, Shotgun and Connor discuss what has been seen from a couple of recent practices, including one where the Trojans ended up down four players by the end of the session. The podcasters then discuss what the Women of Troy will look like this season without Watkins, especially with a challenging schedule expected.

  • Trojans have a bye week to try and fix the major issues from the Illinois loss

    Trojans have a bye week to try and fix the major issues from the Illinois loss
    2025/10/01
    In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") and intern India Otto are back to discuss what they saw from USC in the 34-32 loss at Illinois. It was a disappointing effort from the Men of Troy and they will need to use this bye week to figure out what went wrong and how they can fix it heading into an extremely important home game against Michigan. After rewatching the game, the crew talks about some of the highs that stood out, including incredible performances by Jayden Maiava, Makai Lemon and the tight ends, and the most concerning lows that included poor linebacker play, a lack of pressure from defensive line and poor coverage skills in the secondary. They also give an update from Tuesday's practice, where head coach Lincoln Riley put any rumors of rampant food poisoning that had a major impact on the players to bed, saying that a few guys were affected but it wasn't widespread and it wasn't an excuse for why they played so poorly. They then provide some injury updates including center Kilian O'Connor being out at least two games and running back Bryan Jackson who has no timetable for his return.
