The Trojan have one game left to be play and show some pride and prepare for the 2026 season when they take on TCU at the Alamo Bowl. I had a chance to speak with D'Anton Lynn, DeCarlos Nicholson, Christian Pierce, and Jide Abasiri during USC's defensive press conference in San Antonio, and I have the latest news and quotes leading up to the game.

Segment 1.--Marvin Powell III and I discuss why the players want to play in this game and what their words mean when they talk about not wanting to show a bad a product.

Segment 2.--I asked Coach Lynn to respond to the speculation he's being pursued by Penn St. for the 2nd year in a row. His answer didn't offer a lot or the feeling that he'll be USC's defensive coordinator in 2026.Both MVP3 and I have our take on. the situation.

Segment 3.--What if USC has to replace multiple coaches on the defensive side of the ball this offseason? Is there a scenario playing out where Coach Orgeron returns to USC?
