Summary

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino get back on the mics for another edition of the Helium Boys Podcast, breaking down No. 16 USC's big 26-21 comeback win over Iowa and a massive game against No. 6 Oregon in Eugene. Chris takes on the 'Two-Minute Drill' first, giving props to USC's grounds crew for their care of the Coliseum field during a rain-soaked game. Shotgun uses his time to give praise to superstar wide receiver Makai Lemon, who put forth another monster performance. The HB's move into the Stock Up, Stock Down, which features running back Bryan Jackson, the Coliseum crowd, Kennedy Urlacher and more.
