In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio discussing a few different USC football topics, starting with a look back at the Pete Carroll era, updates from the latest high school football camps held on campus and looking at a potential breakout player for the Trojans in 2026.First up, Ryan gives his review of "Men of Troy" by Monte Burke, a non-fiction book chronicling the rise, reign, and fall of Pete Carroll's USC Trojans football dynasty in the 2000s. Burke goes into that powerhouse Carroll build that brought Heisman Trophies and NCAA Championships to Troy, the celebrity culture around the program, the eventual scandal that helped derail the team. He shares lots of good nuggets in the book with extensive interviews, bringing back both great and painful memories for USC football fans.RJ was on campus last week, watching USC's invite-only high school football camp. It was a chance to see the coaches working close up with players and we realized it was a sign of the changing times. Whereas team camps were meant to be evaluations of player potential, now they serve as a two-way street for players and coaches to judge how they work with one another in a practice environment. We got to see Gary Patterson, Skyler Jones and Shaun Nua all work for extended time with top recruits and it gave us a glimpse into how they work with the current Trojans. The crew also discusses Ryan's interview with Owen Hanson, the "Cocaine Quarterback," give an update on the Bloom Center progress and the potential for defensive lineman Floyd Boucard to be a breakout player this season.

Wemby is not the only guy fighting fatigue at this point of the playoffs...is anyone shaking in their boots over USC hiring an AI guy to the football staff, and Cody Campbell defending Sorsby is falling on deaf ears.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast host Ryan Abraham welcomes special guest Owen Hanson into the studio, the former USC volleyball and football player that turned into an international drug dealer. Hanson's incredible story is chronicled in Mark Wahlberg's Emmy-award winning docuseries "Cocaine Quarterback," available on Prime Video.Hanson talks about his humble beginnings as a Redondo Beach surf kid that was highly recruited as a volleyball player and ended up at his dream school, USC. From there he walked-on to the Trojan football team, despite have never played a down of football in his life, and integrated himself into the program, winning a couple of national championship rings and rubbing elbows with the celebrities that surrounded the program back in the Pete Carroll era.Hustling his way in real estate, bookmaking and eventually drug trafficking and money laundering for a Mexican cartel, Hanson made fast cash and got caught in the fast lane, partying all over the globe. He was eventually arrested, served time in federal prison and now tells his story of redemption through his book "The California Kid" and the Cocaine Quarterback docuseries. He even started a protein ice cream business called California Ice Protein while he was incarcerated.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.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio taking a look at which Trojan football players have the most to prove in 2026. Head coach Lincoln Riley brings 15 starters back and has a new-look defense with Gary Patterson calling the shots on that side of the ball, but to make that elusive run at the College Football Players there are guys on the roster that will need to turn their potential into production.On the offensive side USC brings back a lot of proven production, from quarterback Jayden Maiava to the entire starting offensive line and a pair of talented tailbacks in Waymond Jordan and King Miller. The biggest question mark will be with the pass catchers and which wide receivers and tight ends can step up and become active targets for Maiava to get the ball too.The Trojans have the most to prove on the defensive side of the ball, especially in the front-seven where the pash rush and run stopping were underwhelming last season. Linebacker Desman Stephens looks the part, but can he step up and be an All-Conference type of performer for the Trojans? Defensive end Kameryn Crawford is another guy with talent to spare, but can he put up double-digit sack numbers this season?The crew also has updates on how the USC baseball team did in the regionals plus off-season updates for the men's and women's basketball teams.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.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and RJ Abeytia are back in studio taking a look at the challenging 2026 USC football schedule to see what it will take for this Trojan squad to make the College Football Playoffs for the very first time. Head coach Lincoln Riley is confident he has the right team in place to make a championship run, and we take a high-level look at the schedule with notes on each of USC's opponents. With the Fighting Irish absent, the path to the playoffs should be easier, but USC is still facing off against three of the projected top-5 teams in the country and will need to win at least one of those games to make the postseason tournament. Defending national champion Indiana will be a tough road test and uber-talented Oregon and Ohio State both visit the Coliseum. If the Trojans can come out on top of at least one of the big three and then take care of business in the rest of the games, a berth in the playoffs would be almost guaranteed. The guys also talk about information on USC football tickets for the 2026 season, the news coming out of SEC spring meetings including the standoff with the Big Ten on expanding the college football playoffs plus listener questions.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down the news that USC baseball is back in the NCAA tournament for the second straight year after the Trojans were selected as an at-large team in the College Station Regional in Texas. USC head coach Andy Stankiewicz joins the show to talk about the Trojans making it to back-to-back regionals for the first time since 2001-2002, his reaction to not being a regional host despite a No. 9 RPI as well as what the Trojans have to do better to take the next step and make it to a super regional after being in a regional final last year. Stankiewicz also discusses how the Trojan coaching staff will try to use its Texas connections to prepare scouting reports and mentions the possibility of potentially 'pitching off' and saving Big Ten Pitcher of the Year Mason Edwards for a potential 1-0 matchup with host Texas A&M. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey discuss the progression of the USC program making back-to-back regionals after only one in the previous two decades and take a look back at the action from the Big Ten Tournament where the Trojans went 1-1, losing a heartbreaking walk-off to rival UCLA in the tournament semifinals. They note three positives, including Augie Lopez's potential re-emergence and showing they are capable of beating the best teams in the nation. They also look at USC's struggles leaving men on base and some defensive struggles. The podcasting duo close out the show previewing each of the teams that will also be in the College Station Regional alongside USC with host Texas A&M, No. 3-seed Texas State and four-seed Lamar, breaking down the potential starting pitchers the Trojans could face in the first two matchups.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and RJ Abeytia are back in studio discussing the news that has come out of the Big Ten's spring meetings in Rancho Palos Verdes, at the beautiful Terranea Resort. USC football head coach Lincoln Riley likely had the shortest commute to the meetings, and he ended up speaking to Brandon Marcello about his confidence in the team they have put together for the 2026 season. With some big wins last season over Michigan, Iowa and Nebraska, 15 returning starters, the No. 1 high school recruiting class and the hiring of Hall of Fame coach Gary Patterson to run the defense, Riley feels this Trojan squad is primed for an explosion. With athletic directors, head coaches and Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti all in attendance at Terranea, there was plenty of college football big-picture talk, from expanding the College Football Playoffs to College Sports Commission's oversight of player compensation to the Big Ten breaking away and creating its on governance model. The guys give their thoughts on what went down at the Big Ten meetings and what it could mean for the USC football program.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down USC baseball's final week of the regular season, a hard-fought super-regional-esque series at No. 16 Oregon. They also talk with USC southpaw ace Mason Edwards about his incredible season that earned him Big Ten Pitcher of the Year honors Tuesday. Shotgun and Kasey take a look at the Trojans' series loss in Eugene where every game was decided by a run, including two games going into extra innings with USC winning the opener 2-1 in 1 1 innings, dropping the middle game 4-3 and then losing a heartbreaker 6-5 in 14 innings on a walk-off two-out suicide squeeze. Shotgun and Kasey also take a look at where the Trojans stands in the rankings and key resume metrics, including looking at their regional host potential (or lack thereof). They also preview the Big Ten Tournament and the teams USC could potentially face after locking up the No. 4 seed and a bye to the single-elimination portion of the tourney. To close out the show, Edwards joins the podcast to talk about what he did over the offseason to take such a giant leap from contributor to one of the best pitchers in the nation. He discusses how he reworked his breaking ball and how he's able to now manipulate it into multiple offerings. Edwards also chats about the program build the Trojans have undergone under head coach Andy Stankiewicz, the relationship he has with USC pitching coach Sean Allen and why he's confident the men of Troy can go on a run in the postseason.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio discussing the latest news and notes around the USC football program and college football in general. With spring football in the rearview mirror we are keeping tabs on how the Trojans are navigating the off-season and how the sport we all love makes tweaks to the rules and post-season. Last week the American Football Coaches Association voted to expand the college football playoffs along with a few other modifications to the college football calendar. Their proposal would double the size of the CFP bracket from 12 to 24 teams and eliminate the conference championship games. It would also condense the regular season with only one bye week, preserve the Army/Navy game and make sure the season ends by the second week in January. The crew also talks about former USC head coach Pete Carroll coaching in the Polynesian Bowl against former Texas head coach Mack Brown, the "five to play five" proposal in college football, expanding the NCAA basketball tournament to 76 teams and former Trojan safety Will Harris getting promoted in Miami to the secondary coach and passing game coordinator.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down USC baseball's continued success at home after the Trojans recorded their eighth sweep of the season, improving to a nation's best home record of 28-1 at Dedeaux Field. They also talk with USC hitting coach Travis Jewett about the team's offensive production, which has seen an uptick in driving the baseball, knocking 19 extra-base hits over the weekend in a sweep of Rutgers. Jewett joins the first half of the show to discuss how USC's offense continues to progress with hitters like Augie Lopez and Isaac Cadena really tapping into their power. (The duo has combined for 16 home runs since the start of April.) He discusses the approach USC's hitters are taking to the plate and why it may not be sexy, but it's good to take free base on balls. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey take a look at the Trojans' 3-1 week that began with a disappointing offensive effort at UC Irvine before USC broke loose against Rutgers, notching a pair of run-rule victories to close out the weekend after Mason Edwards was nearly unhittable once again Shotgun and Kasey close out the show taking a look at where the Trojans' stand in the rankings and preview a non-conference week for USC as it takes on Cal State Fullerton Tuesday before a three-game series against Nevada that will begin a day early on Thursday.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio discussing this weekend's huge NFL Draft and the top-rated USC prospects that are hoping to hear their name called. They also take a crack at ranking each of the Trojan football position groups by level of expectations heading into the season following what we learned about the team in the spring. Kicking things off with our draft coverage, all eyes will be on wide receiver Makai Lemon will is expected to go in the top-half of the first round, likely as the second or third wide receiver off the board. Lemon will very likely be USC's only first round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft and could be the only Trojan picks in the first two days of the draft. Safeties Kamari Ramsey and Bishop Fitzgerald, wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane, tight end Lake McRee and linebacker Eric Gentry are other former USC players that are the most likely to get picked up in the later rounds. They finish off the show talking about the 2026 bowl tie-ins sticking with the old conference alignment (Pac-12) and answering listener questions from our live chat, emails and The Peristyle message board.

They also talk with USC sophomore slugger Augie Lopez about his recent hot hitting after being challenged by head coach Andy Stankiewicz. In the first half of the show, Lopez talks about how he's developed into the Trojans' top power threat, hitting seven homers in his last 10 games, and how he's continued to progress and mature at the plate. He also discusses hitting well against UCLA and how the team responded to being swept by the No. 1 team in the nation. Lopez chats about why new Dedeaux Field is so special for the Trojans and why they're so intent on protecting it.

The head coach also discusses what the team can learn from playing the No. 1 team in the nation and how the coaching staff can help individual players get back on track. Stankiewicz also tells the story of the chat he had with sophomore Augie Lopez that has helped spur on his recent surge of hitting safely in 10 of the last 11 games and talks about why the Trojans have been so aggressive on the basepaths. He also discusses USC's bullpen usage and who could be earning more opportunities in the second half of the season. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey break down the Trojans' 1-3 week in the Three Up, Three Down segment, looking at the negatives and finding a couple of positives from the UCLA series sweep.

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together discussing the Trojans wrapping up spring football with a lot of positive takeaways from the five weeks of workouts. With the defensive staff upgraded and 31 new incoming freshman on campus, the team should be poised for a run at the College Football Playoffs. Coach Hyde feels this is the time for Lincoln Riley to shine and there should be no excuses why this program can't take care of business on the field this fall. The guys also talk about how this is the end of an era, with the final football practice that the team will come out of the John McKay Center and cross the street to get to Howard Jones Field. In the fall the Bloom Center will open and players can come right out of the building onto the practice field. Once again USC did not host a traditional spring game and Coach Hyde felt it was a missed opportunity for the team to put one final showcase together and get another weekend of headlines heading into the long off-season. Fans will be able to check out the team on Saturday, April 11 for the Fan Appreciation Day along with the great Swim with Mike event. 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.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio talking about the Trojans finishing up spring practice with practices on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday with media availability and closed practice Saturday morning in the Coliseum.

The crew discusses this final week of practice with offensive and defensive players speaking plus head coach Lincoln Riley, giving their thoughts on everything they heard and saw during the open portions of practice. They also take a look back at all the major news and notes from the past five weeks of spring practice and give their big picture analysis of how Riley, new defensive coordinator Gary Patterson, the new assistants and 31 new freshman faces navigated this extremely important stretch of workouts for the development of this team.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio talking about the Trojans nearing the end of spring football 2026. The team was out on Howard Jones Field Tuesday and Wednesday morning for practices No. 12 and No. 13 respectively, and now there are only two workouts left coming up on Friday and Saturday mornings. The crew gives an update on the injury situation, with a few new names added to the list but still nothing serious with everyone expected to be able to participate in off-season workouts this summer. They also talk about some of the drills that were run during the open portions of practice this week, including a fun looking punt coverage drill where gunners tried to down the ball as close to the goal line as possible without letting the ball go into the end zone. Head coach Lincoln Riley spoke on Wednesday morning and they discuss what he said plus what stood out from the offensive players media scrums on Tuesday and the defensive players earlier this morning. They also discuss the new SP+ rankings that came out, with the Trojans coming in at No. 13 in the country and why there is optimism that USC could be ranked even higher with the improvements made on special teams.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down USC baseball's first non-winning week of the season after the Trojans suffered their first loss at Dedeaux Field in a top 20 matchup with Oregon State and then went across the country and came away with a conference road series win. They also talk with USC hitting coach Travis Jewett and preview a big opportunity for the Trojans as they travel to No. 1 UCLA after a midweek matchup with UC Santa Barbara. In the first half of the show, Jewett joins to discuss how the Trojans were able to bounce back from a poor showing in the midweek to put up 29 runs in a series win at Maryland and how the focus of the offense is on bunching together quality at bats to create two to three big innings per game. He also talks about the advice he gives to a hitter like Maddox Riske, who is putting the ball in play and often with hard contact but not seeing results, as well as his approach for proven veterans that fall into a funk and how a lineup is built. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey take a look at the Trojans' 2-2 week that included a poor start against Oregon State, a bounce back offensive performance to open the series at Maryland, a lackluster day of execution on Saturday and a dominant Sunday rubber match effort.. Shotgun and Kasey close out the show taking a look at where the Trojans' stand in the rankings and previewing a massive week for USC as it takes on UC Santa Barbara on Tuesday before a battle for city and Big Ten supremacy with an opportunity to make a huge statement against No. 1 UCLA.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham Shotgun Spratling and intern Makena Arteaga are back in studio talking about the Trojans finishing up spring practice week three and the wave of commitments from some of the top high school football players in Southern California, including a recent Oregon flip for an elite offensive tackle. USC finished up spring practice No. 11 on Saturday in the Coliseum, completing the third of four weeks of spring football workouts. The crew gives their thoughts on what they have seen and heard out on Howard Jones Field with head coach Lincoln Riley and new defensive coordinator Gary Patterson getting the troops ready for the highly anticipated 2026 football season. Practices were more concentrated this spring, running for five weeks instead of six (with one week off for spring break), and four workouts per week instead of three. March is a critical month for the future of Trojan football with Patterson's new defensive scheme being implemented and 31 true freshmen getting in the mix. On the recruiting front general manager Chad Bowden and the squad are catching fire, trying to follow up on the No. 1 ranked high school class for 2026 with another impressive haul in 2027. Since spring football started dozens of prospects have continually visited campus to check out practice and so far three new commitments have been announced. It started with San Diego Cathedral Catholic four-star athlete Honor Fa'alave-Johnson followed by Mater Dei four-star defensive back Danny Lang and Saturday's big flip from the Ducks in Servite four-star offensive tackle Drew Fielder.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down another unblemished week of action for USC baseball as the Trojans went 5-0 with midweek wins over San Diego State and Cal State Bakersfield along with a sweep of Washington. They also talk with the catalyst of the win over Bakersfield, senior outfielder Jack Basseer, who hit a walk-off two-run homer to give USC the victory over the Roadrunners. Basseer discusses the walk-off winner as well as his journey to playing for his dream school and how he's been able to improve his game in his second season playing for USC. After a break, Shotgun and Kasey take a look at the Trojans' five-game week noting three positives, including Mason Edwards' continued dominance and the contributions of bench players and deep bullpen arms have helped USC start another win streak after their 19-0 start was stopped. They also try to find three negatives after five wins. (Some tasks are more difficult than others.) Shotgun and Kasey close out the show taking a look at where the Trojans' stand in the rankings -- moving all the way up to No. 5 in one top 25 ranking and earning a first-place vote in the coaches poll -- before previewing the beginning of the toughest two-week stretch of the season for the Trojans.

Head coach Lincoln Riley and the Trojans held seven workouts over the first couple weeks of practice including four in full pads. With 31 true freshman and a handful of transfers and a few new coaches joining the program, it was a great opportunity for everyone to come together, try to get on the same page and really work towards building a winning squad for 2026. The crew was at all six practices that were open to the media, including a full practice viewing period on Friday before the team headed into spring break. They discuss everything they saw and heard from the workouts and give their take on how new defensive coordinator Gary Patterson has advanced the defense, who some of the standout players were, true freshmen and transfers that stood out and lots more.

Shotgun Spratling and Kasey Kazliner return on the Dedeaux Download Podcast to break down another unblemished weekend for USC baseball as they improve to 15-0 on the season after opening the Big Ten season with a sweep of Illinois! They also talk with junior left-handed pitcher Sax Matson about the expansion of his role and the team's hot start to the season. Matson discusses the development of his arsenal during his time at USC, including the addition of a cutter this season to a fastball that's climbed five miles per hour since his freshman year and a breaking ball that has devastated hitters this year. He also chats about Sean Allen's coaching and the mentality he takes to the mound where he hopes to visit at least 40 times this season to tie the program appearances record. Matson again played a critical part in the Trojans' pitching efforts that were again electric as Mason Edwards and Grant Govel helped USC throw back-to-back 4-0 shutouts with the staff allowing only three runs over the weekend. USC fell behind early Sunday, but rallied back to take a 5-3 win to bookend the week with two-run victories after also rallying to defeat UC Irvine, 6-4, during a midweek matchup. Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action and look forward to the upcoming double midweek matchups and the Trojans' first road trip out of Southern California this weekend when they travel to Nortwestern.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio breaking down the what they saw and heard from the first two days of USC spring football practice. On Tuesday morning head coach Lincoln Riley and company were back out on Howard Jones Field for their first spring workout of 2026, showing off some impressive depth with the addition of 32 incoming freshman that made up the No. 1 ranked high school recruiting class in the nation. Each position group had higher numbers that we typically see during spring workouts, giving this coaching staff a lot of opportunities to see what they have as they prepare for the 2026 college football season. The crew was at practice on Tuesday and Wednesday and they discuss what stood out to them, from the footwork and quick release of true freshman quarterback Jonas Williams, to the versatility of offensive lineman Tobias Raymond to the different feel at practice now that Gary Patterson is running the defense. They also share what Riley and the players that were made available to the media had to say, talking about these first days of spring with plenty of new faces wearing the cardinal and gold. They also talk about how the former Trojan football players performed at the NFL Combine, with Ja'Kobi Lane running an impressive 40-yard dash, Lake McRee putting on a show in the weight room and Makai Lemon showing his skills in the gauntlet.

Shotgun Spratling and Kasey Kazliner return on the Dedeaux Download Podcast to break down another unblemished weekend for USC baseball as they improve to 11-0 on the season after recording their first four-game series sweep since 1978! They also talk with junior second baseman and leadoff hitter Abbrie Covarrubias about his and the team's hot start to the season. The Trojans' starting pitching was again electric as Mason Edwards, Grant Govel and Andrew Johnson all three were spectacular and Chase Herrell joined the mix with five scoreless innings on Thursday. The Trojans nearly had their second no-hitter of the season as Edwards and Sax Matson combined to throw TEN hitless innings Friday, but the game remained scoreless until the top of the 11th inning when USC broke the game open with six runs. That left the only question being whether the Trojans could get the final three outs before Cal Poly could get its first hit. They fell one pitch shy. Freshman Diego Velazquez got the first out but a grounder up the middle bounced off second base and out of the grasp of a sliding Covarrubias for an infield single. On the next pitch, Velazquez got a ground ball for a 5-4-3 double play to end the game. After being bottled up Friday, USC's bats responded in a big way, pounding out 21 hits and scoring 16 runs -- both season highs -- while Govel again was outstanding on the mound despite giving up his first earned run of the season on a solo homer late in his seven-inning start. The Sunday matchup appeared to be going similarly to the dominant performances USC had shown the rest of the weekend until the ninth inning. After Johnson had been lights out, allowing one run on four hits in 6.2 innings, the Trojans held a 6-1 lead going into the ninth inning. That's when the Mustangs finally showed some life, scoring five runs with the help of a two-out error to tie the game and send it into extra innings for the second time in the series. The 10th inning remained scoreless, but USC burst through with a pair of runs in the 11th and freshman Gavin Lauridsen closed it out for the 8-6 win to complete the sweetp. Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action and look forward to the upcoming matchups against UC Irvine and the start of Big Ten play against Illinois.

Shotgun Spratling and Kasey Kazliner return on the Dedeaux Download Podcast to break down USC baseball's 7-0 start to the season following a 10-run rule midweek win over Loyola Marymount and a sweep of Rice. The Trojans' weekend starting pitching was again electric as Mason Edwards, Grant Govel and Andrew Johnson all three won their starts to help USC get off to its best start since 2015. The Trojans' weekend starters did collectively give up their first run of the season but only combined to give up one while striking out 28 over 17 innings. USC's bats didn't have the same proficiency as they tallied only 13 runs on 18 hits over the three-game series, but they did enough to put the Trojans in position to stay unbeaten this season. Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action and look forward to the upcoming matchups after they talk with USC assistant coach Sergio Brown, who talks about moving back into an on-field instruction role after being the director of player development the last three years for the Trojans. Brown also discusses the success of USC's pitchers, the Trojans' freshman class that is already providing key contributions and the impact getting Kevin Takeuchi back in the lineup has had after he missed much of last season with injury.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple-Double") and intern India Otto are back in studio breaking down the massive USC assistant coach press conference, where 11 Lincoln Riley assistants each spoke to the media for approximately 15 minutes each. Starting with defensive coordinator Gary Patterson we heard from all of the defensive assistants including the new linebackers and special teams coach Mike Ekeler, new safeties coach Paul Gonzales and new defensive tackles coach Skyler Jones. On the offensive side the coaches were all familiar faces from running backs coach Anthony Jones to tight ends and inside receivers coach Chad Savage. The crew digs into some of the top storylines from all of the interviews, including player injury updates, hints into the depth chart, philosophies on the defensive side of the ball and what the goals are for the 15 spring football practices.

Shotgun Spratling and Kasey Kazliner return on the Dedeaux Download Podcast to break down USC baseball's 3-0 start to the season with a historic Saturday performance. The Trojans threw a combined no-hitter that ended in dramatic fashion as a two-run homer from Andrew Lamb invoked a 10-run mercy rule. Sandwiching the dominant 11-0 display on Saturday were a pair of close victories for USC as it won the season opener 3-1 and then locked up the sweep Sunday with an 8-5 victory over the Pepperdine. In each game, the Trojans got elite starting pitching, allowing just three hits over three starts and 16 innings. Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action and look forward to the upcoming matchups after they talk with USC sophomore right-hander Grant Govel about throwing the first six innings of a no-hitter and striking out a career-high nine batters. Govel also discusses his offseason development, putting on 20 pounds of muscle and refining his repertoire, which was all working for him in his start against the Waves.
