Summary

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back discussing the first week of USC fall camp with seven total practices, four available for media observation including two fully open workouts. The guys share their observations from what they have seen and heard out on Howard Jones Field and what they learned from interviews with all of the coaches, including new strength and conditioning coach Trumain Carroll, and players after practice. The guys also share their thoughts on the newly released Coaches Poll that left the Trojan football team out of the top-25. We have seen the improvements made throughout the program this off-season, but nationally USC is still looked at as a 7-5 type of team. They also revisit a question posted by "asianwoof" on The Peristyle, asking the entire USCFootball.com staff to predict if the offense or defense will finish with a higher rank in five different categories and what the team's final rank in the AP Poll will be. Ryan and Connor share their thoughts for each category and share the picks from the rest of the staff. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICK HERE for 50% OFF an annual VIP membership to USCFootball.com!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
