Fox Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the first games of the college football season as Week Zero officially kicked off the year. He begins by reacting to #14 USC's 16-point win over San Jose State and dives into whether Trojan fans should be excited or concerned with what they saw from the Trojans – and also gives his thoughts on the low fan attendance at the Coliseum for the opener. Klatt also discusses Bill Belichick's North Carolina team pulling off the upset of TCU and whether we may have jumped to a conclusion on the Belichick era in Chapel Hill too early. Klatt shouts out Virginia for their blowout win and evaluates their potential to be this year's Indiana in the ACC. Klatt also reacts to Memphis' upset win over UNLV and it's ramifications on the Group of 6 Playoff chase. He discusses Florida State's lackluster win and explains why FSU is not the power they once were and how things could be about to go off the rails in Tallahassee.Klatt wraps the show up by breaking down the latest eligibility issue in the sport as NFL players try to come back for one more year of college football, explaining how we got into this mess and where he stands on it – while pointing out a particular group that nobody's talking about that is being negatively impacted as a result.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and Shotgun Spratling are back in studio talking about the Trojans opening the 2026 college football season with a 42-26 victory over San Jose State. USC got off to a fast start, taking a 28-0 lead into halftime and extending that to 35-3 after three quarters.

College Football is back and welcome to Y-Option's week 1 show! I was in the booth for USC's opener against San Jose State. Yes, it was hot. So was Jayden Maiava as he played with elite command. The highly touted freshmen for the Trojans also met the moment. And one small detail stood out to me, worth flagging if you're a special teams fan early in today's show.I also dove into Oregon's game vs Boise State. I'm doubling down: the Ducks are one of the top two teams in the country as we approach week 1.Speaking of top two, Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele and Nico Iamaleava are two of the best quarterbacks in the nation, and both play on the West Coast this Saturday night. That's what makes Cal vs. UCLA a must-watch: two elite QBs and the debut for two new head coaches.After calling Eastern Illinois at Minnesota Thursday night, I'm flying to Seattle to meet Paul Burmeister.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's RJ Abeytia, Shotgun Spratling and intern India Otto are back in studio talking about the long awaited kickoff to the 2026 college football season, a week zero matchup against San Jose State. The Trojans, coming off a 9-4 season in 2025, face a Spartans squad that struggled to a 3-9 finish for head coach Ken Niumatalolo. Quarterback Jayden Maiava should shine against SJSU's defense, with few returning starters off a squad that struggled to get stops last year. New defensive coordinator Gary Patterson will get his squad tested out of the gate, facing Hawaii transfer quarterback Luke Weaver and the Spartans "Spread and shred" offense.The crew takes a look at what they are expecting out of this Trojan squad that will finally have the opportunity to put that No. 1 ranked recruiting class on display. They also give their thoughts on the newly released depth chart that featured five incoming freshmen as starters or co-starters and several more that landed on the two-deep.This is the podcast version (audio only) of our Tunnel Vision episode.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

His father, King Priam, joins them, begging his son not to go into battle but Hector refuses to break his vows and is joined by his brother Troilus, who is eager for vengeance. Pandarus brings a letter from Cressida which Troilus reads and rips in fury. As the battle begins, Thersites stands on the sidelines mocking everyone in the fray until he is confronted by Hector and crumples at his feet. Troilus fights both Diomedes and Ajax and Hector fights Achilles but spares him in an act of chivalry. Patroclus is killed.  Achilles, heartbroken, gathers his group of mercenary soldiers (the Myrmidons) to hunt for Hector. Thersites mocks Menelaus and Paris as they fight until he's confronted by Margarelon and runs away. Hector sits down to rest after killing a Greek soldier for his armor when Achilles and his Myrmidons arrive and surround him before slaughtering him in cold blood. Troilus, enraged, rallies the retreating Trojans before cursing and rejecting Pandarus, who is left alone to deliver a scathing epilogue.

While the guys are not permitted to share specific details from the scrimmage, they are able to give their general thoughts of what this SC squad looked like during the first full tackling we have witnessed since the Alamo Bowl back in December.The guys also share their thoughts on everything else they have seen and heard from the first week and a half of fall camp, including the overall health of the team and which position groups have stood out so far.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

Fox Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt defines what a successful season looks like for 15 of the most intriguing programs in the country. Is it truly National Championship or bust for teams like Texas, Ohio State or Notre Dame? What should LSU, Penn State and Michigan fans be happy with in Year 1 after coaching changes? Does USC's daunting schedule tone down expectations or does Lincoln Riley need to lead the Trojans back among the elite in the sport? Does Alabama need to adjust expectations in the post-Saban world or should Tide fans expect more from Kalen DeBoer's team this season? Klatt also breaks down teams like Wisconsin and Nebraska as they try to build their programs back to what they once were.

Hector, Troilus and the rest of the Trojan leaders arrive in the Greek camp to negotiate a possible truce. Diomedes leaves the gathering and Ulysses and Troilus secretly follow him to Calchas's tent. Diomedes calls for Cressida, who comes out to meet him. Troilus and Ulysses watch as Diomedes flirts with Cressida, with Thersites mocking the whole scene from afar. Cressida tries to figure out a way to keep Diomedes satisfied without breaking her loyalty to Troilus. She offers him the bracelet Troilus gave her then tries to get it back but Diomedes won't let her have it. She finally gives in and agrees to let Diomedes into her tent, bidding a sad farewell to Troilus, who has seen the whole thing from his hiding place. He rages in despair and disbelief as Ulysses tries to get him to leave.

There is a whole lot of worrying, waiting and wondering going on. After taking something he rarely takes—a real vacation—Stan Hustad returned to Inconvenient Ideas with five days away from television, computers and the daily digital noise. The occasion was a significant wedding anniversary, celebrated with his wife, Karen, along the North Carolina coast. It also came after a difficult season marked by loss, uncertainty and reminders that life can change very quickly. Perhaps that is why a few days away produced something more valuable than rest: perspective. Stan returned not pretending that the world had suddenly become easier, but recognizing that, despite difficulties, obstacles and a few genuinely frightening possibilities, he was still living in what he calls a POA—a Place of Opportunity. And then he turned the television and computer back on. Welcome back to the world of worrying. Worrying, Waiting, Wondering—and Wishing Stan noticed four activities consuming an extraordinary amount of human energy: Worrying. Waiting. Wondering. Wishing. People worry about their jobs. They wait to see what happens next. They wonder what artificial intelligence will do to their profession. And they wish somebody—or something—would make the uncertainty go away. But wishing is not a business strategy. Worrying is not a career plan. And waiting for the world to become predictable may require a very long wait. The more useful question is: What can you create? That question becomes especially important when so many people feel they are reacting to life rather than creating it. Certainly, much of life is outside anyone's control. But there remains an enormous difference between admitting that reality and surrendering one's ability to act. That distinction may become one of the essential survival skills of the AI age. What Is Real? Artificial intelligence introduces another inconvenient question: What is real? Stan has encountered videos, music, images and performances that seemed completely authentic—until closer examination raised another possibility. Perhaps they weren't. AI is rapidly moving toward a point where ordinary viewers and listeners may have difficulty determining whether something was created by a human being, a machine, or some collaboration between the two. Stan describes the strange sensation perfectly: Sometimes something can seem too fake to be real—and too real to be fake. That changes the questions we may have to ask. Instead of simply asking, "Is it real?" perhaps increasingly we will also ask: Is it true? Is it good? Is it useful? Is it helpful? Is it beautiful? Does it make life better—or worse? That is an inconvenient idea indeed. Even the new Inconvenient Ideas studio provides a playful example. The glowing neon-style sign, the broadcast environment and the visual presentation can now be created with AI assistance. Is the neon sign "real"? Well, you're looking at it. And perhaps the more useful question is whether it helps Stan communicate an idea worth hearing. Become an Author of Ideas Stan also makes a personal confession. He has spent nearly half a century as a broadcaster and communicator. He talks. He teaches. He coaches. He interviews. And perhaps most importantly, he continually comes up with ideas. But traditional writing has never necessarily been his greatest strength. AI has helped him recognize a different possibility: Maybe he is not primarily an author who writes. Maybe he is an Author of Ideas. That changes the relationship with artificial intelligence. The human being supplies experience, judgment, imagination, conviction, stories and ideas. AI can help organize, edit, develop and distribute them. In that arrangement, AI does not necessarily replace the human creator. It can multiply the creator. And that may be one of the great opportunities of this technological revolution. But Beware of Trojan Horses Every gift is not necessarily good for you. The ancient Trojans learned that lesson the hard way. Artificial intelligence may become one of the greatest productivity tools ever created. It may also eliminate jobs, disrupt professions, destroy established business models and make some previously valuable skills considerably less valuable. Both realities can be true. The appropriate response, therefore, is neither blind enthusiasm nor paralyzing fear. It is preparation. Create Your Own Personal Economy Here Stan reaches the central challenge of the program. In an increasingly unpredictable economy, people should learn how to create their own personal economy. That does not mean everyone must quit a job tomorrow morning and launch a company by lunchtime. It means learning to think entrepreneurially. Can you recognize an opportunity? Can you solve a problem? Can you create something useful? Can you communicate its value? Can you develop relationships? Can you serve customers? Can you adapt when technology changes the rules? And can you create another source of usefulness and income when an old one disappears? Those questions are becoming important whether someone is 22, 42, 62—or 82. Everyone Is Also Becoming a Broadcaster There is another skill Stan believes people increasingly need. They need to learn how to communicate through modern media. You may never have a radio program. You may never call yourself a podcaster. You may never dream of becoming a YouTube personality. But we live in a mass-media marketing world. At some point, most professionals, entrepreneurs, leaders and creators will need to become comfortable behind a microphone, in front of a camera, on a screen or communicating through digital media. That makes broadcasting no longer merely a profession. It is becoming a life and business skill. The Four People We May Need to Become Stan's challenge can be reduced to four roles worth developing in this new world: Become an Entrepreneur. Learn to recognize opportunities, create value and build your own personal economy. Become a Broadcaster. Learn to communicate clearly, confidently and persuasively through modern media. Become a Transformer. Develop the ability to change yourself, your work and perhaps the lives of people around you. Become an Author of Ideas. Bring distinctly human experience, imagination, wisdom and judgment to AI tools capable of helping those ideas travel farther and faster. None of this guarantees an easy future. There will still be plenty to worry about. But perhaps there will be considerably less to fear. THINGS TO REMEMBER • Worry is information, not instruction. Fear may tell you that something deserves attention. It doesn't necessarily tell you what to do. • AI is both opportunity and disruption. Refusing to acknowledge either side leaves you unprepared. • Your ideas still matter. AI can generate words, pictures and possibilities, but human experience, judgment, character and wisdom remain extraordinarily valuable. • Entrepreneurship is becoming a basic life skill. You don't necessarily need to own a company to learn how to create value. • Broadcasting is becoming a basic communication skill. The ability to speak effectively through microphones, cameras and digital media will increasingly matter. • Transformation requires action. Waiting for certainty may simply mean waiting forever. THINGS TO SHARE Ask someone you care about: "If your present job disappeared because of AI, what useful thing could you create, teach, communicate or sell?" Then ask a second question: "What could AI help you do that you could not realistically have done five years ago?" Those two questions may start a far more productive conversation than another hour of worrying about artificial intelligence. THINGS TO TAKE NOTE OF Pay attention this week to the places where AI is already changing your life. Notice what it does extraordinarily well. Notice where it makes mistakes. Notice what frightens you. But especially notice where it gives you new capabilities. Instead of merely asking, "What will AI do to me?" begin asking: "What can I now do with AI that I could never do before?" That is the entrepreneur's question. THINGS TO DO Choose one idea you have been postponing. Write it down—or speak it into your phone. Use AI to help organize it. Turn it into something tangible: an article, presentation, proposal, podcast, video, course, business idea or conversation. Then put it into the world. Don't merely worry. Don't merely wait. Don't merely wonder. And don't merely wish. Create. THE INCONVENIENT CHALLENGE The AI digital world will undoubtedly produce disruption. Some careers will disappear. Others will change dramatically. New professions will emerge that hardly anyone can describe today. So the goal cannot be to make the future perfectly safe. The goal is to become the kind of person who is increasingly capable of meeting it. Stan Hustad has spent decades as an entrepreneur, broadcaster, communicator and coach. Today he is helping people learn how to become entrepreneurs, world-class broadcasters, transformational thinkers and Authors of Ideas who can work intelligently with artificial intelligence rather than merely worry about what it might do to them. If the new world has you worrying, waiting, wondering or wishing, perhaps it is time for a different conversation. Stan's invitation is simple: Learn to create your own economy. Learn to communicate your own ideas. Learn to use the new tools. Learn to become more useful. And learn to become less afraid of the future by becoming better prepared for it. Stan Hustad and What It Takes Radio are available to help. Stan@witradio.net Because in the end, the future may belong neither to the people who blindly embrace AI nor to those who desperately resist it. It may belong to the people who learn how to remain fully human while becoming remarkably good at using it. And remember: If an idea is interesting and important, there's a pretty good chance it will also be inconvenient.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and RJ Abeytia are back in studio talking about USC kicking off fall camp practices as the team gets ready for the highly anticipated 2026 college football season. With a fully open practice on Saturday and then two more opportunities to see the Trojans on Tuesday and Wednesday morning, Ryan and RJ give their thoughts on how the team is looking this first week of fall camp.Around 40 players and coaches were available on Monday for USC's preseason media day and the guys discuss what everyone had to say about their preparation for the season. Lincoln Riley spoke after Tuesday's workout and he shared details about the team's roster size and how the new five years to play five seasons rule is a positive development for the Trojans, especially considering the huge freshman class that is now available to play every game.The guys also discuss the revival of the USC vs. Notre Dame series, with four games scheduled from 2030 to 2033. The Trojans wanted the games moved to early in the season to accommodate the travel of the Big Ten conference schedule and the Irish wanted to keep the game in October/November. When both sides couldn't come to an agreement, the series was paused and now we know it will be a four year hiatus before this storied rivalry gets going again.The preseason Coaches Poll was released this week and USC came in at No. 14 behind three Big Ten opponents, Ohio State (1), Oregon (2) and Indiana (6), all three of which face the Trojans this season. USC will also face No. 17 Penn State and No. 19 Washington.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.

The 2026 college football season will be an enormous one for Lincoln Riley and the USC Trojans, and their showdown with Ryan Day and the Ohio State Buckeyes in the Coliseum on Halloween will go a long way toward determining whether the Trojans can earn a spot in the College Football Playoff. In this special bonus episode, you'll hear directly from Riley about his personal history against Ohio State and the historic rivalry between the Buckeyes and Trojans, and whether this could be the start of a rekindled rivalry. Plus, you'll hear his thoughts about a 24-team College Football Playoff, what it will take to get USC over the hump and into the CFP, and why he's so openly confident about his team this year.

Is Lincoln Riley running out of time at USC? Lance Taylor joins Connor O'Gara for Episode 7 of The Connor O'Gara Show to examine Riley's future, the Trojans' College Football Playoff potential and the enormous pressure surrounding one of college football's most polarizing head coaches. Despite producing elite quarterbacks and winning four Big 12 championships, Lincoln Riley is still searching for his first College Football Playoff victory. Can USC's revamped defense finally help Riley break through? Could the Trojans go 10-2 and earn a spot in the expanded 12-team playoff, or will another disappointing season force USC to confront Riley's massive buyout? Connor and Lance also reveal the national championship teams they rooted against the hardest, including the 2013 Florida State Seminoles, the Cam Newton-led 2010 Auburn Tigers, the controversial 2023 Michigan Wolverines and the 2002 Ohio State Buckeyes. Plus, Connor makes a bold Michigan prediction that would create a nightmare scenario for Ryan Day and Ohio State, while the guys dream up potential playoff matchups involving Alabama, Oregon, USC, Oklahoma, Michigan, Utah, Texas and Texas Tech.

The year 1970 stands as a monumental chapter in the annals of American football, encapsulating a series of transformative events that irrevocably altered the landscape of the sport. This episode meticulously examines these pivotal shifts, particularly highlighting the remarkable resurgence of George Blanda, a quarterback whose age-defying performance at the age of 43 not only astonished fans but also earned him the prestigious title of Male Athlete of the Year. Furthermore, we delve into the inception of Monday Night Football, a groundbreaking television phenomenon that commenced on September 18, 1970, captivating audiences and setting the stage for a new era in sports broadcasting. Alongside these narratives, we explore the profound impacts of desegregation in college football, exemplified by USC's historic victory over Alabama, which significantly influenced the dynamics of Southern football. As we traverse through these compelling stories, we invite our audience to reflect on the enduring legacy of the 1970 season, a year that truly changed the course of football history.Don't forget to check out and subscribe to the Pigskin Dispatch YouTube channel for additional content and the regular Football History Minute Shorts.Miss our football by the day of the year podcasts, well, don't, because they can still be found at the Pigskin Dispatch website.

The 1970 American football season is a pivotal chapter in the history of the sport, characterized by transcendent achievements and transformative changes that reverberate through the annals of football lore. The advent of Monday Night Football on September 18, 1970, represented a seismic shift in how the game was consumed by the public. This inaugural broadcast, featuring the New York Jets and the Cleveland Browns, was not merely a sporting event; it was a cultural milestone that bridged the gap between entertainment and athletics. With Keith Jackson at the helm of commentary, accompanied by the distinctive voices of Dandy Don Meredith and Howard Cosell, the game introduced a new paradigm of sports broadcasting that emphasized personality, analysis, and fan engagement—elements that are now essential to the viewing experience. Central to the narrative of this season is George Blanda, whose remarkable resilience defied the conventions of age and performance in professional sports. At 43 years of age, Blanda's unexpected return to the field as an emergency quarterback for the Oakland Raiders culminated in a series of thrilling performances that not only secured victories but also etched his name in the record books as the Associated Press Male Athlete of the Year—the first football player to receive this honor. His journey serves as a poignant reminder of the indomitable human spirit and the capacity for excellence irrespective of age, challenging preconceived notions about longevity in professional athletics. Equally significant were the developments within college football, where the 1970 season bore witness to a watershed moment in the integration of the sport. The USC versus Alabama game became emblematic of the social changes sweeping across the nation, as the Trojans' resounding victory catalyzed a shift towards desegregation in collegiate athletics. Concurrently, Nebraska's ascendance to national prominence, culminating in their first consensus national championship, exemplified the evolving competitive landscape of college football. The confluence of these narratives—the innovation of Monday Night Football, Blanda's legendary performances, and the pivotal college games—collectively delineate a season that not only redefined the sport but also left an indelible mark on American culture, setting the stage for the future of football.
