The Trojans look to back up the off-season talk Saturday against San Jose State

from Peristyle Podcast - USC Trojan Football Discussion

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and Makena Arteaga are back in studio talking about USC getting ready for the long awaited season opener against San Jose State. The Trojans and the Spartans kick off Saturday at noon in the Coliseum in a rare week zero game, set up as a late replacement for the paused series against Notre Dame. The Men of Troy come in as a 38.5-point favorite against an SJSU squad picked to finish towards the bottom of the Mountain West Conference. The long off-season is mercifully coming to an end and it is finally time for the Trojans to show what all of that confidence looks like against a live, albeit overmatched, opponent. Our crew recaps what they have learned about this USC football team during fall camp, what game preparations for San Jose State have looked like and what they expect from the USC offense, defense and special teams on Saturday afternoon.
