This week on The Untitled Notre Dame USC Football Podcast, we break down another exciting weekend of college football, where both the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans walked away with victories.

First, we dive into the Trojans’ hard-fought win over the Nebraska Cornhuskers. USC entered the game with a new quarterback under center, a change that seemed to bring a fresh energy to the team. While the quarterback switch made waves, the Trojans stuck to their tried-and-true formula—close games. This time, however, they managed to hold on for the win, proving that they can weather the storm when it matters most.

Next, we shift gears to Notre Dame, who faced off against the Virginia Cavaliers. The Fighting Irish had a solid win, but we discuss their ongoing struggles with slow starts, which have made fans nervous. With Army on the horizon this coming weekend, the pressure is mounting for the Irish to start strong from the opening whistle. We also highlight Marcus Freeman’s ability to lead and adjust, pointing to his growth as a coach as he navigates these challenges.

We wrap things up by returning to USC and previewing their upcoming rivalry game against UCLA. Spoiler alert: We’re expecting another gritty, competitive showdown. Based on past performances, it seems like this one will play out much like the others, with the Trojans fighting until the very end.
