Peristyle Podcast - USC Trojan Football Discussion

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") and intern Riley Sager are back in studio for the very first game recap show of a year, breaking down the absolute beatdown USC put on Missouri State. The Trojans took down the Bears 73-13, scoring at least 70 for the first time since the 2005 opener against Arkansas and putting up the most points since 1930 when USC hung 74 on California. It was a rude awakening for MSU who went on the road for its first game as an FBS program and got dismantled in the Coliseum by a very motivated Trojans squad. Offensively the Trojans were nearly flawless with only three incompletions thrown, 14 different players caught passes, 8 different players scored offensive touchdowns, averaged 10.5 yards per play, a perfect 7 for 7 in the red zone and one lone turnover on sack/fumble by backup quarterback Husan Longstreet. Defensively USC focused on using that bigger, more athletic defensive front to generate pressure and the plan worked, with the Trojans generating 5 sacks and 13 tackles for loss. The defense forced a pair of turnovers including a pick-six, gave up just 224 yards and a paltry 3.9 yards per play and 2.2 yards per rush. The crew talks about this near flawless performance and what it means, if anything, for this football team going forward. They also discuss the differences from last season including that improved defensive front, the impressive running backs room, Jayden Maiava keeping the ball out of harms way, a different vibe during warm-ups and dropping the "Drip Check" individual entrance for a more team-focused approach.

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking USC's home opener against Missouri State. Looking to erase some bad memories from last season, the Bears took the brunt of the Trojans frustrations head on, falling 73-13 in the Coliseum in MSU's very first game as an FBS program. Coach Hyde starts off talking about what USC can get out of a blowout like this, feeling that such an overmatched opponent that didn't put up much resistance makes it harder to evaluate your own team. Even though most everything went right for USC, it was still a great opportunity to play against live competition, it just lacked some of the adversity a team will face during the season like 3rd and long situations or two-minute drills. Looking at the running backs, with everyone doing well every time they touched the ball and even a walk-on scoring for the first time in over 20 years, it makes the player evaluation that much harder. He did feel the offensive line played well but wanted them to not look back if they were blocking down field, a position they were in often since the run game was so successful. Coach said his message to his team this week would be that we are not world beaters just because we won by 60. He'd like to see some full scrimmaging this week just to get some better game conditioning that the starters weren't able to get on Saturday. He feels Georgia Southern might be something similar and this team really needs to get ready for week three on the road against a Purdue squad that looks much improved over last year. He finishes the show talking about USC dropping the "drip check" coming into the Coliseum and how he feels its a step in the right direction with players coming off the bus looking like a team instead of a bunch of individuals. Coach Harvey Hyde has been part of the Peristyle Podcast since 2008 and in the USC football world he is an expert on X's and O's, personnel, coaching philosophies and recruiting.

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 a post-fall camp re-rank of USCfootball.com's Top 30 Most Important Trojans' list. 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. Each year under Lincoln Riley, the USC roster has seen significant turnover each year making it a bit of a guessing game trying to figure out who is going to play and how valuable they are going to be toward the team's success, so we've incorporated a re-rank when the Trojans' football team makes the transition from fall camp to game preparation in the week leading up to the season opener. Each USCfootball.com staff member submits his own list of whom he/she believes will be the most important Trojans. Considerations for the rankings take in a wide range of factors including positional depth, 2024 stats, overall talent, departures from the previous season, 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 the final preseason rankings. The re-rank includes several risers on the defensive side of the ball, including offensive linemen Tobias Raymond and Justin Tauanuu, as well as players whose importance declined whether through an inability to lock up a starting role or the emergence of other players.

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 for the very first game preview show of a year, taking a look at the Missouri State Bears. The Trojans have been chomping at the bit to get back out on the field this off-season and they will finally have their chance Saturday at 4:30pm PT against MSU, with the game being shown on the Big Ten Network. Coached by Ryan Beard, Missouri State is transitioning from FCS to FBS, leaving the Missouri Valley Conference for Conference USA, and the Trojans will be the Bears very first opponent as an FBS program. USC is the only FBS program to have never played an FCS foe, but this game will be as close to playing one as it gets. This is the podcast version of our Tunnel Vision video show.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back to discuss the 2025 season opener against Missouri State with new revelations along the offensive line with Tobias Raymond taking over the left guard spot, former walk-on Kilian O'Connor winning the competition to be USC's center and Justin Tauanuu settling in as the right tackle starter. Unlike last season, the Trojans get to start the season with a lower profile game, giving this offense an opportunity to figure things out on the offensive line before the meat of the Big Ten schedule. Missouri State moved up from the FCS level, leaving the Missouri Valley Conference for Conference USA and will play its first game as an FBS program against the Trojans. The guys talk about some of the challenges the Bears can pose on Saturday and what they are looking to see from this Trojan football team. USC does have a couple of injuries heading into the opener including freshman defensive lineman Jahkeem Stewart and kicker Caden Chittenden. ⁠⁠CLICK HERE for 50% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠!

In this special edition of Tunnel Vision hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple-Double") are joined remotely by third-year offensive lineman Elijah Paige, who returns to Troy as the clear starter at left tackle and the most solid and certain piece of USC's offensive line. Thanks to House of Victory, the 6-foot-7, 315 pound safety out of Pinnacle High School in Arizona joins the show to talk about representing USC at Big Ten Media Days, learning and growing as a player following periods of struggle, his 18 games of experience including 13 starts at left tackle, how the rest of the offensive line is shaping up around him and plenty more. As a redshirt freshman, Paige was a key cog on the Trojan offensive line last season and was named to the FWAA Freshman All-American Team and was an All-Big Ten Honorable Mention.

It's officially Week 1! Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino are back behind the microphones for another edition of the Helium Boys Podcast to break down USC's Week 1 opponent: Missouri State, which will be making its debut at the FBS level. The show kicks off with the patented 'Two-Minute Drill' with Trevino commenting on Lincoln Riley's comments on Trojans Live about the starting lineup along the offensive line. Shotgun talks about his excitement for the start of the season, and his hurried travel plans this past weekend in Georgia. The Helium Boys then take their first official preview of the 2025 season with Missouri State. Missouri State wasn't a world beater at the FCS level with just four playoff appearances since 1989 and a 30-26 record since 2020. The Bears are projected to be among the bottom of Conference USA with a win projection between 5.4-6.7 per ESPN's Football Power Index. It's been an emotional offseason for the Bears program after the death of senior safety ⁠Todric McGee⁠ in spring from an accidental gunshot wound. McGee was projected to be a starter in the secondary, leaving a huge loss in the defense and program.

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking USC football game week finally arriving, with the Missouri State Bears coming to the Coliseum to kick things off on Saturday afternoon. Last season head coach Ryan Beard led MSU to an 8-4 record, 6-2 in the Missouri Valley, good for 4th place in the conference. This season the Bears move up to Conference USA and will try to shock the world with an upset of USC on the road. The guys talk about what the challenges are of facing a lower level opponent out of the gate as opposed to a high profile opener like the Trojans had last season against LSU. They also share what they know about this Missouri State football program including how Beard took over for then head coach Bobby Petrino following the 2022 college football season. Petrino has since moved on to become the offensive coordinator at UNLV in 2023, Texas A&M in 2024 and now Arkansas in 2025. Coach Hyde talks about how he feels that high school football in Southern California is as good as anywhere in the country. Coach Hyde is a former high school coach and to see these top teams travel across the country and win was really impressive. He also talks about using private quarterback coaches and how he feels the SEC going to nine conference games will help USC keep its series with Notre Dame going into the future. Coach Harvey Hyde has been part of the Peristyle Podcast since 2008 and in the USC football world he is an expert on X's and O's, personnel, coaching philosophies and recruiting.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back to discuss the breaking news that Purdue offensive lineman transfer DJ Wingfield won't be available to the Trojans this season after losing the eligibility lawsuit he filed against the NCAA. On Monday judge James Selna heard arguments from Wingfield's lawyer and NCAA council and ended up ruling against Wingfield's request for an injunction. The Trojans picked up Wingfield out of the portal and the Redondo Beach (Calif.) Redondo Union grad was projected to be USC's starting left guard this fall. Not having Wingfield available is a major blow to a position group that was already searching for answers after losing players like Jonah Monheim to the draft and Emmanuel Pregnon and Mason Murphy to the portal. To replace Wingfield, the Trojans will likely turn to either Tobias Raymond or Micah Banuelos to fill the position. On Friday the Trojans held a scrimmage in the Coliseum to end fall camp and Connor shares some general thoughts on what he saw. Please note, while media was allowed to attend, we are not permitted to report on the details of what went down. The guys also talk about some Big Ten news including the leaked college football playoff expansion plan from Tony Petitti and the sanctions handed down to the Michigan Wolverines. ⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE for 50% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!⁠⁠⁠⁠ Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠!

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino are back behind the microphones for another edition of the Helium Boys Podcast to discuss the breaking news from Monday: USC offensive lineman DJ Wingfield lost his lawsuit against the NCAA and cannot suit up this season. Wingfield's loss is a significant blow for USC as the Redondo Beach (Calif.) Redondo Union grad was projected to be the starting left guard this fall. The Trojans will now likely turn to either Tobias Raymond or Micah Banuelos -- two players with one combined start between them in their college careers -- to fill the position. It's no surprise that both hosts spend their 'Two-Minute Drill' on the Wingfield situation and where USC goes from here as an offensive line. Chris and Shotgun spend the first half of the show breaking down some of the ongoing battles and big question marks up front. The Helium Boys then dive into the second half of the show with Shotgun taking on the second annual Over/Under challenge from Chris. They look over how Shotgun did from 2024 before looking at potential numbers for this fall. Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠!

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking about the Trojans finishing up fall camp with a Coliseum scrimmage on Friday morning. The scrimmage was open for media viewing, but we were not allowed to report on the specifics of what we saw out on the field. Coach Hyde gives his general thoughts on what he saw, from what the team looked like coming off the bus to what he witnessed from the press box as the offense was facing off against the defense. Overall Coach Hyde thinks the potential is there for a very good Trojan football team in 2025. He thinks that the players are better, he feels the position coaching is better, but he really wants to see an adjusted offensive philosophy. Coach sees the Trojans as a one-dimensional offense that doesn’t play to the team’s strengths and quarterback Jayden Maiava’s strengths. If USC can run the ball more and put Maiava in favorable situations, Coach Hyde feels the Trojans can win a lot of games. The guys also talk about the NFL preseason debuts of quarterbacks Caleb Williams and Sam Darnold plus Michigan getting "sanctions" from the sign stealing scandal of a couple years back.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back discussing the second week of fall camp including the first major injury, defensive back Prophet Brown. Head coach Lincoln Riley disclosed that Brown went down with a non-contact injury and will be out for at least the first part of the season. On Friday Brown was seen rolling into practice on a scooter with crutches under his arm. Before the injury Brown was working with the first team defense at the nickel spot, opening up an opportunity for some younger guys to get in the mix. Two weeks in, Connor revealed his stock risers of camp and the crew discuss his picks and why he thinks they have improved their position on the Trojan depth chart. The guys also share their thoughts on the newly released preseason AP Poll that, like the Coaches Poll, left the Trojan football team out of the top-25. The Trojans have an opportunity to start the year under the radar and build a strong resume as the season rolls on. ⁠⁠CLICK HERE for 50% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!⁠⁠⁠ Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠Spotify⁠!

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino are back behind the microphones for another edition of the Helium Boys Podcast to break down and react to the first couple of weeks of fall camp for the 2025 season.

They also discuss USC being unranked and chat about movies -- both the best of this year, none of which Shotgun has seen, and classics that Chris has yet to view. The episode opens with the 'Two-Minute Drill' where Chris and Shotgun decide to hop into the season with a blind run, trying to hit two minutes without a stopwatch running. Chris discusses his bread-free campaign and the Trojans not being ranked in the top 25 while Shotgun discusses the offensive line.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back discussing the first week of USC fall camp with seven total practices, four available for media observation including two fully open workouts. The guys share their observations from what they have seen and heard out on Howard Jones Field and what they learned from interviews with all of the coaches, including new strength and conditioning coach Trumain Carroll, and players after practice. The guys also share their thoughts on the newly released Coaches Poll that left the Trojan football team out of the top-25. We have seen the improvements made throughout the program this off-season, but nationally USC is still looked at as a 7-5 type of team. They also revisit a question posted by "asianwoof" on The Peristyle, asking the entire USCFootball.com staff to predict if the offense or defense will finish with a higher rank in five different categories and what the team's final rank in the AP Poll will be. Ryan and Connor share their thoughts for each category and share the picks from the rest of the staff. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE for 50% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
