Its victory season on the podcast, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans just keep on winning. We start with the Fighting Irish and their win over Navy. Things started out great, but Notre Dame had to hang on to win. The triple option is always a bad time, and Greg thinks the series with Navy should be stopped. With Navy out of the way the Fighting Irish have their final home game of t...

The wins just keep on coming for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. Before we get into Notre Dame's dismantling of Clemson, we have to talk about Greg's constant trolling of Michael's beloved Trojans. Once pleasantries are restored, we all revel in seeing a sad Dabo and how the Fighting Irish beat up the Tigers. Notre Dame is rolling into the end of the season.  USC on the other ha...

It was a good weekend for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. Both teams secured victories, and made it a happy Halloween for Michael and Greg.  We start with holiday talk, discuss costumes and trick or treating, then get into Michael's forget full Saturday and let Greg gloat about his Arizona Wildcats and their potent offense. That leads into game talk. The Trojans successful third...

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish cruised to victory this weekend, while the USC Trojans were on a bye. It what seems like a low key week we find more than enough to talk about. Things start off on the melancholy side, with Michael still bummed over the Trojans loss to Utah. Though the season outlook hasn't changed much for USC, a lot of the fun has left the building. Before we shift to actual footbal...

It was a bad weekend for both the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. However, a bad week on the football field makes a good week on the podcast. It's another freewheeling conversation, this time on both the schools' losses.  A perfect weekend for Trojan fans was ruined by Utah. USC just couldn't score enough points to get past the Utes. There was a similar problem for Notre Dame agains...

Another week of college football, another win for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. After eight seasons of podcasting, the Trojans are finally nationally relevant, and the media, including Greg, have been making unnecessary comparisons of Caleb Williams and the USC offense. The podcast starts with a rousing discussion about the Trojan offense and how they have performed over the s...

Another week of college football, another USC Trojans' victory. While the Trojans were busy winning the Notre Dame Fighting Irish were on their bye week. We start with USC's victory over the Arizona State Sun Devils. The office was rolling like usual, but the Sun Devils were able to keep the game relatively close. In the end Caleb Williams and the rest of the Trojan offense was just too hard to st...

It was a winning weekend for both the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. This week's episode starts with the Trojans and their narrow victory over the Oregon State Beavers. It was an ugly game for USC and they almost lost, but a win is a win. It's also nice this game was on the Pac-12 Network so no one saw how bad the Trojan offense played. That is, except for running back Travis Dye....

It's time for a celebration because both the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans won their games this weekend. Not only did Notre Dame win their game against Cal, but head coach Marcus Freeman picked up his victory ever. It was another boring game for the Fighting Irish. Things finally started to come together for Notre Dame and then they tried their hardest to let Cal back in the game a...

The second week of the season is complete for both the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans and the teams are heading in opposite directions. Notre Dame lost their second game of the season, this time to lowly Marshall. The Fighting Irish looked terrible and just about everything went wrong. Even the quarterback got hurt. We take stock of the season so far, what has gone wrong and what to...

Week 1 of the 2022 college football season is in the books for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans, and we have split results. We start with the Fighting Irish who lost a close game to the Ohio State Buckeyes. We discuss what was a boring game that had few highlights for Notre Dame. We try to find some bright spots, while questioning the effectiveness of Notre Dame offensive coordina...

The first game of the season is finally here for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. The start of the season brings hope and exciting for everyone, and anything is possible. We start with the Trojans. USC's week 1 opponent is Rice, but it doesn't matter who the Trojans are playing. Everyone is waiting for the start of the Lincoln Riley era. The expectations for the offense are unlim...

The season is finally here. The 2022-23 college football season is about to kickoff for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans, so we thought it was time for a season preview. Season 8 starts with the Trojans and all of their new players. It's hard for anyone to guess what is possible when this group of players either hasn't played with each other, hasn't played in awhile or both. All t...

Sound the alarm! It's an unexpected unannounced podcast. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish and The USC Trojans are deep into the offseason and have no real breaking news to talk about between them. It's the perfect time for a general thoughts conversation. We start with the Trojans and get into how it feels to be the transfer portal villain. As I Trojan fan we talk about what it's like to root for a b...

The New Year is here, and the season is officially over for both the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. We start things off with Notre Dame and their bowl loss to Oklahoma State in the Fiesta Bowl. We talk about how Marcus Freeman looked in his first game and how it sets the tone for the Fighting Irish going forward. That leads into a discussion about new hires for both Notre Dame and...

On this very Notre Dame Fighting Irish heavy episode of the podcast, we get everyone ready for the Fiesta Bowl. We start in the only place you can right now and talk about the new COVID surge and if it will cancel or delay the bowl game. Then we get into the game itself and Notre Dame's opponent, the Oklahoma State Cowboys, The theme that runs through most of the conversation is how will the Fight...

Early signing day has come and gone for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. We start by reviewing USC's small but star studded class. The Trojans may only have seven players signed at the moment, but two of them are five star recruits. We then switch to the Fighting Irish where Greg is forced to pick the seven players he would keep from Notre Dame's class. The is a also a quick tang...

We are back with another UHND crossover podcast. After a crazy week for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans things settled down, and we have a free flowing conversation that occasionally touches on mature subjects. After some light housekeeping, we start by discussing players like Kyle Hamilton, Kyren Williams and Drake London declaring for the NFL, which then leads into our thoughts...

It was a wild week for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. The only way to properly discuss what went down is to do it chronologically. We start at Lincoln Riley's introductory press conference, work through Brian Kelly leaving Notre Dame, the hiring of Marcus Freeman and end with bowl selections. This past week was so unbelievable that is was hard to document everything. Enjoy! Ema...

It's another crosspod with UHND . The Notre Dame Fighting Irish completed their regular season with a big win against Stanford and the USC Trojans made a big splash with their new coach. We get to the hiring of Lincoln Riley in the second half of the pod, so we start with the game against Stanford and who looked good for the Fighting Irish. Then we run down playoff scenarios for Notre Dame. Once t...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! For the Notre Dame Fighting Irish there is a lot to be thankful for, but for the USC Trojans everything stinks. Greg forces the conversation right to the Trojans and their humiliating loss against local rival UCLA. The big question to ask is what is USC even playing for. The season in meaningless, there is nothing left on the line, so how can the players get excited fo...

The USC Trojans may have not had a game this week like the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, but they still mad news. USC's game against Cal was postponed until December because of COVID and their best prospect decommitted. It's all hard times for the Trojans. It's the complete opposite for Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish won again, and it was another example of what a competent program Brian Kelly has bu...

A day later then usually but we are here and ready to talk about the Notre Dame Fighting Irish's victory over the Navy Midshipmen and the USC Trojans loss to the Arizona State Sun Devils. We start with Notre Dame who weathered the storm against Navy. The victory wasn't always pretty, but in the end the Fighting Irish did what they had to do. It was a mixed bag for the Irish offense, but the defens...

After a spooky Halloween we are back to preview the USC Trojans' game against the Arizona State Sun Devils and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish's match up against the Navy Midshipmen.  We start the episode talking about the sad state of affairs that is the USC Trojans. Their best player is out for the season, they probably can't make it to the Pac-12 title game and there is a weird two quarterback sy...

Rivalry week is over and we are back. Greg was kind enough to have Michael on his other podcast to talk about the Notre Dame USC game and their trip to South Bend. Don't be confused by the different intro. There was also a preview podcast some people might have missed that was posted over at UHND.com.     Greg is back from South Bend with a lost voice but a happy heart, as he and his friend Michae...
