Podcast Recap: USC vs. Notre Dame — A Different Kind of Breakdown

I dropped my full analytical recap yesterday — the one where I broke down the numbers, the film, the shooting splits, the defensive coverage, and everything USC did and didn’t do in that loss to Notre Dame. But today’s breakdown hits a little different.

This time, I sat down with Matt for our usual post-game podcast — the raw, conversational version of the recap that our Let’s Talk USC Women’s Basketball community loves. It’s less about charts and stats and more about reaction, emotion, and perspective. We talked through the flow of the game, what we saw live, what surprised us, the moments that shifted momentum, and how USC can bounce back moving forward.

If yesterday’s video was the data-driven deep dive, this one is the sit-down-on-the-couch version — where we process the game like fans, analysts, and storytellers all at once.
