That era of USC was unbelievable. That's the last time I enjoyed USC. I remember watching that last snap in the SC/ND game and it was one of the more elated feelings I had watching a team beat another. Had that Warrick Dunn long run on Florida back in the 90's. Just epic.
As an ND fan, the bush push killed me, years later when ND starting beating USC regularly it still didn't matter as much, that was the team to beat, not when they were in their down years. Still stings lol
i was at this game, in the end zone where usc scored. having attended seven usc BCS games, games at ohio state, va. tech, golf majors, nba title games, tons of ufc fights, etc. this is still my single favorite sporting event ever attended. fight on.
Gotta say, i grew up despising those USC teams...but this has turned my feelings about Matt Leinart. He's a true football guy. Loved it. Can't wait for you guys to get together again.
Great podcast! Matt was a great guest to talk about the game. I had another RUclips channel up with the game on to follow Matt talking about it play by play. Great guest and game fellas
Those SC teams were nuts. Reggie Bush is the best CFB player i have ever seen. He was must see tv and im in the midwest. We had to stay up until 2:00am to watch the SC games.
You need Vince Young and Reggie Bush to be there for that rewind of the Rose Bowl. I got to meet Vince Young a few months back and I had him sign a 8x10 picture of the play were he takes it in to win the game. He told me that he came into that game pissed off and played with a chip on his shoulder because he lost out to Reggie Bush for the Heisman trophy. His tone of voice sounded like he still mad about it. Lol.
I was 13 living in LA, I was a big basketball fan never liked football but these boys went crazy and i became a football fan SC been my team ever since
I think a great episode would be the 13 seconds game with the Chiefs beating the Bills in the AFC Divisional Playoff game on January 23, 2022. It was a hell of a game. And the man you gotta bring on has got to be Patrick Mahomes. This episode would kill! And the infamous name of “13 Seconds” speaks for itself.
Julian, great show. Matt, you probably have seen..... but if not you would have loved even your SC rival ASU beating Notre Dame in 2014 at Sun Devil Stadium 55-31. That was a big deal hereabouts and the place was rockin' like seldom in recent decades. ASU absolutely smoked them in the first half, but fell asleep and "took their foot off the pedal" as you say in the 3rd quarter, letting Notre Dame back in (ND waking up too I should credit!) to make it uncomfortably close for a while, but the Sun Devils prevailed.
Miami, USC, Ohio, Texas, Alabama, LSU. Gave me so many good menories and heartbreaks. 98-2008 was my favorire years for college football. edit forgot FSU and UF
Accurate about Adam 'Pacman' Jones running a laser timed 4.515 second 40 last summer (7/7/23) on McAfee's show. And it wasn't even optimal conditions (no blocks, hat flew off, 'flat' segment of parking lot)! Note this was 2-mos before his 40th birthday! Compared to 4.42 while in the NFL (He didn't do the combine, but had 4.38 on his Pro Day.).
October 19, 1985 Oregon State vrs U of Washington. Seattle was trashing Oregon State..all season. Then 10/19/1985 came and the Huskies lost! For OSU this was Redemption.
you guys should have guests score any game that youve reviewed that they played in....like Matt should have reviewed Reggie's game that you guys did so it could have a more fair rank....just a thought
Jules talking about looking at them like pros when he was the same age is crazy cause he had a better pro career than any of em. Rlly shows you where peaks and perseverance matters in sports.
Leinart was perfect for those SC teams but i dont ever remember watching him play there thinking "man, this guy is a great QB", ever. And the same was true in his time in the NFL.
The way he describes his time at USC, what they did, how they played, what they played for, the camaraderie, the lifestyle. Emotionally, the guy had basically lived the best moments a football player has ever hoped for. Yes it was not NFL money; but they were doing pretty good for a kid their age. So there is no way that dude was going to the dump Arizona Cardinals was at that moment and find that magic again. And that is a very common thing for college successful athletes. It’s not a general rule though (Jordan and others); but it is common. Look at Edelman, and even Brady, he had none of that in college; so he had to fight for it in the pros.
What's crazy though is even though usc had all these heavy hitters none of them really did anything in the nfl.. Bush had like 2 good seasons but that's about it.
They should do the Ohio State vs Notre Dame game when AJ Hawk beat the shit out of Quinn while his sister was in the stands wearing a half AJ half Quinn jersey.
45:25 ..any MMA fans catch that? Only the hardcore’s would notice & who knows how many of those are football fans too watching this podcast.. but Matt said “Orlavski & Schaub” ..Andre Orlavski is an MMA legend who fought Brendan Schaub (who also played football at Colorado & had some talks with some NFL teams before signing with the UFC)… I don’t know who Matt’s talking about here, but what a weird coincidence.
Matt, I'm a diehard Notre Dame fan, and I still hate you (as a football player) to this day lol. The push WAS illegal, and the Ref's should've thrown the flag, just like James Bradberry got called for that picky hold in the Superbowl against the Chiefs at the end of the game. I'm a Die Hard Eagles fan, and suffered THAT call. Thank God Texas beat you guys that year..best National Championship game I ever saw.
Patriots better not go for Caleb 😅 if we can somehow pull it off I would take Harrison Jr quarterbacks are very important but we also don't have any wide receivers nor do we have an offensive line that was also a big problem for Mac Jones and zappe I think of Mac had a better top receiver and a better o line he definitely would have had a better year like the year he had during his rookie season IMO
Sad to say but thats why mat passed up MILLIONS in the 05 draft he wanted to come back for the limelight and not focus on his career. He was too busy being a socialite. Im not saying he was a SCRUB but in 05 matt woulda been overall #1 he couldnt leave that party boy atmosphereat usc n i dont blame him. However he was by far a better qb than alex smith and he was a better player than ronnie brown
Lay of the drugs. Alex Smith had a very respectable 16-year career as a starter and was a 3x pro-bowl QB. He lead a very talent starved Utah to a BCS win. Your boy Leinart spent the majority of his pro career as a backup and was cut during what should've been his prime. He was effectively forced into retirement with no team ever showing interest in his services. No GM on earth would take Leinart over Smith at any point in their careers. Had he come out in 2005, he would've been the 4th best QB, not saying he wouldn't have been picked last of the 4, but he was clearly the 4th best.
@@paulnettles9109 i disagree. In 05 usc had the better team and just smoked jason white and the Sooners. Matt was the best qb in 05 in college and had he went pro he was number 1 overall imo
This man Julian Edelman is so natural on a mic man!! Love this podcast so damn much!! Thanks for all the great work y’all do fellas 🤘
He really is a natural

Second best college game I ever watched. The first would be later that yr, USC vs Texas
This show would be so much better if they could show footage.
In time.
This THE best content on RUclips right now, amazing through and through, congrats Jules 🎉
Matt was The Man. Personified SoCal in the 2000s. Thanks for the memories Matt👏
i was at this game, in the end zone where usc scored. having attended seven usc BCS games, games at ohio state, va. tech, golf majors, nba title games, tons of ufc fights, etc. this is still my single favorite sporting event ever attended. fight on.
No one cares. Sooo much info for no pay off.

He's fortunate USC's defense was beat up, missing starters at the end of that season otherwise USC wins handily.
@@jiordone8563coulda woulda shoulda. Don’t matter. Record books don’t say ‘so and so was injured.’ Just who wins and who losses.
SC was missing two of their best defensive players for that game, could have ended different
I was 13 living in LA, I was a big basketball fan never liked football but these boys went crazy and i became a football fan SC been my team ever since

Great episode
These usc teams were so fun to watch
I would watch USC just to hope to catch a Reggie Bush highlight live. He was soooo much fun to watch.
You guys should do the games between University of Miami vs FSU. The "wide right" and the other missed field goal games that made it crazy.
Yes!!..Beautiful Jules is back!!!❣❣
This episode was filmed months ago. Filmed before the Reggie Bush one.
The era that made me love collegiate football
Stakes: 9.0
Star Power: 7.2
Gameplay: 6.9

Dwayne Jarrett was a beast
Love Jack at the end 😂😂😂
The Rikishi reference! Hadn't thought about him in ages . . . made me think of the dance w/ Too Cool. 🤣
If a guest says 10 they should immediately bumped to 9.9 unless the room unanimously agree. This list is in shambles with all these 10s 😂
October 19, 1985 Oregon State vrs U of Washington.

Matt liners brother did a program in Orange County that I was part of called the UYFL taught me how to play ball
Jules talking about looking at them like pros when he was the same age is crazy cause he had a better pro career than any of em. Rlly shows you where peaks and perseverance matters in sports.
Leinart was perfect for those SC teams but i dont ever remember watching him play there thinking "man, this guy is a great QB", ever.
And the same was true in his time in the NFL.
I remember that ND game I was in south bend and that was the one we let get away
The way he describes his time at USC, what they did, how they played, what they played for, the camaraderie, the lifestyle. Emotionally, the guy had basically lived the best moments a football player has ever hoped for. Yes it was not NFL money; but they were doing pretty good for a kid their age.

Would love to see a game 6 of the 2011 World Series on here.
As alumni in Arkansas , we played them 04 and 05... slammed us! But glad to see bush live! 😮
I went to the game the week before and I was offered a plane ticket and game ticket to what became the Bush Push game. Couldn’t go. 😢
Please get Gronk and Leinhart together for an episode. I can’t think of two dudes with more different energy, and I just want to see what happens
anyone know what hat jules is wearing?
Matty Leinart doesn’t miss a chance to let you know someone was a baller.
Get Snoop on for the USC Texas game
Peyton Manning did not win a Heisman Trophy.
Having other football players ask Edelman about what Brady is doing is amazing
Shout out Woodrow Wilson the only Public High School with 2 Heismans
Put snoop on
You can see the exact moment the edibles hit Leinart
Love the show. Stop cuttin each other off tho
31:04 nahhh man gotta be Vince or all 4 of em vince,Line,Matt,Julian
Have they done, “the band is on the field!”?
4th Heisman you’ve had on…Reggie Bush is getting his back!!!
Notice how the camera moves away from Julian when he is about to spit in the white cup?
What's crazy though is even though usc had all these heavy hitters none of them really did anything in the nfl.. Bush had like 2 good seasons but that's about it.
56:31 Even Matt agrees with me that my Irish should've let Jerrett score instead of tackling him.
The live show sold out already 😢😢😢 come back to Foxboro! No more waxys but it’s Conrad’s now
lmfao “how big was the pay cut when u got to the NFL?” 😂
Great interview just wish Matt would have not interrupted Julien every time he tried talking smh.
RIP COLT BRENNAN💙
Chauncey Washington was a grown ass man, shame he always got injured.
I feel for Matt, has his truck and was wanting to keep it and the getting sold that must of sucked 😂
How do I get that hat 😍
Hugh Hefner parties!!Play Boy Mansion 🎉🎉🎉
39:00 That basic white t shirt was teared apart by Jule's greatness 😅
Manning didn’t win the Heisman.
Since 03 USC had 1 legit title. LSU has won 3 and two heisman trophy winners.
They should do the Ohio State vs Notre Dame game when AJ Hawk beat the shit out of Quinn while his sister was in the stands wearing a half AJ half Quinn jersey.
1:26:03 Julian been to that candy mountain

He’s talking about Matt schaub & Dan Orlavski nfl qbs
@@Gcali14 That’s a wild coincidence. Brendan Schaub & Andre Orlavski were 2 UFC heavyweights who fought each other back in the 2010’s

You're killing it edelnuts! Get Shane gillis on please!
I wonder why Matt never made it in the league?? Maybe it was “I threw the ball good with two gloves but it didn’t look cool” attitude 🤷🏻♂️😂
I'll put that 04' USC team up against anybody. That includes the 01' Canes and 19' Tigers. Fight On✌️
Anywhere?? I'll take my Tigers neutral or at home vs that team. Geaux Tigers!!
Patriots better not go for Caleb 😅 if we can somehow pull it off I would take Harrison Jr quarterbacks are very important but we also don't have any wide receivers nor do we have an offensive line that was also a big problem for Mac Jones and zappe I think of Mac had a better top receiver and a better o line he definitely would have had a better year like the year he had during his rookie season IMO
Gotta get Sanchez on
Get Brian Cushings on
That was a good show but Matt man, let Jules finish his sentence.lol
Who?
Matt kinda sounds like Christopher Walken lol
Marry Ice LOVES to interrupt. He also LOVES to make excuses
Rip Coltt B
How do you know he is a great person?how do you know he gets most out of his players?
Get ricky Williams on please !!
Do the Nick Foles Eagles Super Bowl game

Dan Moreno Fake Spike... Anytime the Jets lose. It is going to be a good day.
Ah, god Dan Moreno was a great qb.
Go Irish!
