Peristyle Podcast - USC Trojan Football Discussion

I thought about giving this podcast 4 stars because honestly there’s too much content! That’s the only negative I see. I lose productivity at work and my family suffers because I’m so plugged in (jk). I enjoy all of the shows except the one with Harvey Hyde (he gives me Lee Corso/Weekend at Bernies vibes) and the crew gives real takes, even if other listeners don’t agree. Thanks guys for giving me another way to stay invested in USC athletics. Fight On! Nelson, class of 2012

If you have been a miserable USC fan for the past seven years (since the pac-12 conference of champions championship victory over stanford) then listen to this podcast because there is no sunshine pumping about our glorified, once loved, once feared trojan football team. and yes, even 2022 was miserable because even thinking about that defense gives me nightmares. it was grinchmas time all season long. connor, aka triple double, is by far my favorite because he tells you how it is and he calls out lincoln riley and asks the questions that others won’t. he is not afraid of 10 million dollar lincoln riley. Riley only lets you guys watch stretching, yet Connor still brings an A game to Instant Analysis. don’t worry ryan, i also enjoy you too but i must say i feel completely cheapskated with my $17 gift card i received from the podcast of champions. I know it’s not your fault and that is UCLA’s for only scoring 17 against LSU. this is not a ploy to receive a second gift card (wink wink) this is me wanting to feel some sort of extra joy for a big ten team completely obliterating an SEC team who was outclassed and didn’t belong in the playoff, probably said kirk herbstreit. Has anyone thought of looking at Connor for USCs GM? with his knowledge of the roster and transfer portal, he’d get me vote.

You guys generally do a great job.. However, Lincoln Riley may have come from Mike Leach and the Air-Raid, but his offenses are not Air-Raid.. I’m a sure Shotgun has the data with how many spread vs. 12 personnel vs 11 man personnel.. Coach Riley pass/run ratio at USC is 55% pass… When LSU won with Joe Burrow their ration was 53%.. in contrast Mike Leach’s last 2 season were 72% and 68% Alabama with Tua was in the 47-49% range.. which is similar to USC in the Leinart/Bush days.. So yes L Riley is passing more, but not close to resembling an Air-Raid by personnel or in pass/run ratio.. jb Boone 81/83

Long time listener, first time reviewer. Love the 2 star pod - 18K is comedic gold (pun intended) and a top host as long he lets the hurricane cook. Keep the cilantro garnished fare coming and give the man his money. The player interviews were a nice touch this season and love seeing guys like woody marks get their bag, despite a tough season. One of the better coop win-wins imo. I live abroad in Southeast Asia now but will one day come out to a meet up. 3am solo watch parties feel crazy sometimes but you gota do what you gota do. Fight On!
