Summary
On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking USC football game week finally arriving, with the Missouri State Bears coming to the Coliseum to kick things off on Saturday afternoon. Last season head coach Ryan Beard led MSU to an 8-4 record, 6-2 in the Missouri Valley, good for 4th place in the conference. This season the Bears move up to Conference USA and will try to shock the world with an upset of USC on the road.
The guys talk about what the challenges are of facing a lower level opponent out of the gate as opposed to a high profile opener like the Trojans had last season against LSU. They also share what they know about this Missouri State football program including how Beard took over for then head coach Bobby Petrino following the 2022 college football season. Petrino has since moved on to become the offensive coordinator at UNLV in 2023, Texas A&M in 2024 and now Arkansas in 2025.
Coach Hyde talks about how he feels that high school football in Southern California is as good as anywhere in the country. Coach Hyde is a former high school coach and to see these top teams travel across the country and win was really impressive. He also talks about using private quarterback coaches and how he feels the SEC going to nine conference games will help USC keep its series with Notre Dame going into the future.
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.
