January 03, 2019 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.18 Bowl Game Blues
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish season ended in the Cotton
Bowl with a loss to the Clemson Tigers. Greg is not taking the loss too hard,
and staying positive on what was a encouraging season. Everything that could go
wrong did for the Irish in Texas, and the Tigers took full advantage. It was
another tough loss for the Irish in a big game, but there is always next year.
As for the USC Trojans, it’s still a confusing offseason with new offensive coordinator
Kliff Kingsbury interviewing for head coaching jobs.

December 27, 2018 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.17 Playoffs
The holidays are over and we are back. Things are still in
flux for the USC Trojans. The Trojans hired a big name offensive coordinator,
and are in danger of having a lackluster (by USC standards) recruiting class.
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are prepping for their college football playoff
game against Clemson. After the long layoff the Irish are ready to go against
the Tigers, and Greg thinks this going to be a close game. A shot at the national
title is on the line.

December 03, 2018 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.16 Bowl Selection

The end of the regular season is unfortunately here, and although neither the Notre Dame Fighting Irish or the USC Trojans played this week there was a lot of news to go around. First Notre Dame ended the regular season ranked 3rd and will play 2nd ranked Clemson in the Cotton Bowl. All of the conference championship games went as expected and Notre Dame held onto their ranking. USC did not qualify for a bowl and has no games left to play, but there were some major coaching shake ups, and rumors of flirting with the available offensive master mind Kliff Kingsbury

November 26, 2018 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.15 Week 13 Recap ( Rivalry Week)

Rivalry week has come and gone. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish continued their winning ways by beating the USC Trojans this past weekend. The game between Notre Dame and USC was close all night, but the undefeated Fighting Irish were able to hold on against the rival Trojans in the end. Notre Dame looked sloppy all night long, but were able to take advantage of USC’s usual second half woes. The Fighting Irish are now college football playoff bound, while the Trojans ended the season ineligible to play in a bowl game. Also, despite the calamitous season USC will bring back head coach Clay Helton next season to the dismay of many Trojan Fans.

November 22, 2018 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.14 Rivalry Week

Rivalry week is here. The 90th edition of the greatest intersectional rivalry in college football kicks off this Saturday when the Notre Dame Fighting Irish travel to Los Angeles and faceoff against the USC Trojans. Greg is riding high rooting for the undefeated Fighting Irish, while Michael is ready for next season just like the injury plagued Trojans. This will probably be the last game of the season for USC, and hopefully the end of the Clay Helton era. For Notre Dame this is a stepping stone before a likely college football playoff berth.

November 19, 2018 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.13 Week 12 Recap

After missing an episode due to the Southern California wildfires we are back. Notre Dame is still rolling, while USC is still reeling. The Fighting Irish continue their winning ways by beating up on number 12 Syracuse. The Orange didn’t stand a chance against Notre Dame, and scored their only points as time was running out. It was another stellar performance for the Fighting Irish defense, and the offense made plays when it mattered. The Trojans on the other hand, lost to cross town rival UCLA. USC looked bad in almost all facets of the game. This poor performance is another blemish on coach Clay Helton’s already spotty resume. This loss also means with a loss to Notre Dame this coming weekend the Trojans would not be bowl eligible. This year’s rivalry week has a lot riding on it for both teams.

November 06, 2018 Podcast – Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.12 Week 10

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish kept on rolling while the USC Trojans tasted an unsatisfying victory. Notre Dame traveled to Northwestern and handled their business. The game may not have been a blow out, but the Fighting Irish did what they needed to do in order get the victory. As always, Ian Book looked great in the second half of the game and multiple Notre Dame players chipped in to seal the victory. With three games left in the regular season Notre Dame has the playoffs in their sights. As for the USC Trojans, in Clay Helton’s first official game as playcaller things went fine for the Trojans. The ground game punished Oregon State and the defense held out long enough to get the win. The Trojans looked great at times and sloppy at others. Everyone is curious what iteration of the Trojans will show up for the remainder of the season.

October 31, 2018 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.11 Week 9 Recap

On an action episode of the podcast we have an eye witness account of Notre Dame’s victory over Navy, the first college football playoff rankings and the aftermath of USC’s loss to Arizona State. We start things off with Greg’s live account of the Fighting Irish’s trip to San Diego to take on the Midshipmen. Ian Book looked great, the offense was rolling and the Notre Dame fans traveled well. After talking about the lopsided victory, we get into the first college football playoff rankings, which have the Irish ranked 4th. The jubilation of Notre Dame fans is in stark contrast to USC supporters. The Trojans lost another game to a PAC 12 south opponent and any chance of a meaningful season is just about out the window. After the loss the Trojans shook up their play calling and fired a coach. Too little too late.

October 22, 2018 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.10 Week 8 Recap

It was another disastrous week for the USC Trojans after a loss to the Utes of Utah. Notre Dame was on a bye this weekend, so the Fighting Irish talk is admittedly light in this episode. However, the distress of the USC football program gives us more than enough to talk about. Trojan fans want heads to roll, starting with offensive coordinator Tee Martin, then circling in on head coach Clay Helton and even including freshman quarterback JT Daniels. Greg and Michael try to figure out what the problem is at USC, and if it can be fixed.

October 15, 2018 Podcast: Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast – Episode 4.9 Week 7 Recap

Victories abound for both Notre Dame and USC this past weekend. The Fighting Irish came away with a hard fought victory over the Pitt Panthers, and the Trojans held on to defeat the Colorado Buffaloes. Notre Dame quarterback Ian Book had to recover from a shaky first half to lead Notre Dame to a come from behind victory. The offense struggled early, but like always the Irish defense was stout. The friendly confines on the Coliseum did the trick for the hot and cold USC Trojans. Freshman quarterback JT Daniels struggled early, and the Trojans continued to rack up dumb penalties. In the end USC had enough firepower to defeat the higher ranked Buffaloes.
