I am joined by Saman Djabbari of the USC Podcast “Traveler Hates Thursdays.” You might remember that we did a pod with them earlier this year.

We open up talking about the different dynamic that Sam Darnold provides the USC offense that Max Browne didn’t. Sam Darnold is also is willing to take risks, unlike last year’s starter Cody Kessler who was willing to check down in hail mary situations.

At the end of the podcast we talk about the long-term position of the USC program and we find a lot of parallels with where the Oregon program is.
