IB Nation Sports Talk: Notre Dame Football Opponent Insider - USC Trojans

Irish Breakdown's opponent insider series continues on today's show with an interview with RJ Abeytia from USCfootball.com. In this interview with Sean Stires, Abeytia discusses last week's resignation of USC athletic director Mike Bohn and where the situation currently stands. Other topics include:

* How the Trojans looked in their second spring under Lincoln Riley.

* USC's offensive and defensive questions.

* How Riley is using the transfer portal and how it could change going forward.

* A tough last Pac-12 schedule for the Trojans.

* USC's last season in the Pac-12 and anticipation for next year's move to the Big Ten.

* The prospects of playing late season games in the Big Ten.

* What year two could look like for Caleb Williams.

* USC basketball's commitment of LeBron James' son Bronny James

There's more to discuss in Rapid Fire as well. The list of topics is below.

We start Rapid Fire with a discussion on how strongly we think a Notre Dame player other than Joe Alt could be drafted in the first round by an NFL team next year. Other topics include:

* Notre Dame's 2023 football schedule has 2:30 and 3:30 game times. Which do we prefer?

* Thoughts on schools like BYU, Colorado and Nebraska hosting summer tryout camps for transfer portal players who have not signed with new schools yet. 

* Penn State and Michigan State are going to play a prime time game on NBC on Black Friday at Ford Field in Detroit. Playing that game at Ford Field also means Michigan’s state football championship games will have to play played on Saturday and Sunday that weekend rather than Friday and Saturday. Do we like the move?

* We give our most overhyped college football teams in 2023.

* We predict TCU's record for the season. 

* Notre Dame baseball's loss to Pittsburgh in the ACC Tournament and how it affects their NCAA hopes.
