Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return with the Helium Boys Podcast to preview the Trojans' trip to the desert to take on Arizona State in their first road trip of the season and assess where USC stands coming of its bye week following a 3-0 start to the 2023 season.
Shotgun and Chris immediately jump into what they are keeping an eye on and looking for this weekend in the 'Two-Minute Drill' segment. The boys look at what to expect from USC going on the road for the first time this season and what needs to be seen from the Trojans in the desert. They then dive into USC's next opponent, Arizona State, who is suffering through an unbelievable (but not unprecedented as Chris assures) spate of injuries, particularly at the quarterback position where the Sun Devils were down to their fourth-string QB in a 29-0 loss to Fresno State last week.
The Helium Boys also discuss the state of college football as a whole and the wide-open national championship landscape in a year of increased parity. A podcast of the people, the Helium Boys also answer your USC mailbag questions about a number of topics, which mostly focus on the defensive side of the ball, including can Alex Grinch be an elite defensive coordinator.
Finally, the podcast concludes without a "Take It or Leave It" section but instead with several food questions, focusing on wings, taco truck orders, danger dogs, regional delicacies and even soup safaris.
