Am Christian and welcome to Scotch on please be joined by Scott Kennedy got dot com Virginia set for the SC Notre Dame game the big rivalry game. Taking place in South Bend joining Kevin -- and as he playbook dot com and Kevin. We saw the trojans account open it up and a big win versus cal do you think they'll further open the playbook this week against Notre Dame.

Yet -- you know to win over Washington State and in the performance that cal last two weeks ago. Seeing that the coaches have a lot more trust. Barkley I think you know that went back for a shall it doesn't hurt morneau and asking questions about it anymore I think -- we took the has -- will be opened up more with the return of Ronald Johnson. -- their you know real true that a guy who opened up things are -- all but Joe McKnight underneath letting that -- not -- in Auckland. You know really -- after -- they like they have install.

Kevin the Trojan. What is USC's defense opted to keep their streak intact.

I think what you see you know even more in the secondary will be on the shoulders of the -- the blind that see again that they can stop and watch it I think if things get pressure on clock. You know -- that and make bad decisions like that it could be USC defense really come through. The difference in the game are well you know secondary that the Olympics spending like. If that is just anchor Kevin Thomas but they're really really get that support strength but in -- Saturday and passing in McCaw the will it go up against USC these.

Kevin under Pete Carroll you as he has won seven straight in this matchup do you think making continue that streak.

I think it's going to be a closer game but in the end I think USC defense would be that -- got to take over the game -- isn't the third and fourth quarter our friends beat out on top 27. Or.

Our thanks Kevin for the notre Dame's side things we bring in -- O'Malley and it seems that the team has grown up matching Jimmy Johnson's maturation as well. What do these young guys who are coming into their on have to do to do something against -- Trojan defense that's been a out this year.

This year with the addition of new up into like coach Frank -- UGB. -- really aren't promote that that -- the most improved unit possibly the country. They may not be up to par. With USC defensive line but -- it really won't -- that seem complete mismatch on the field when you're able to runner not a completely protect -- to be seen let -- of the -- hold up as your beliefs.

Ten the last four Notre Dame games have come down the wire and it's certainly been exciting with -- Notre Dame -- three and one record in the contest do you think they'll have an advantage against -- being a little more battle tested coming into this game.

Over the years -- against Pete Carroll at the Notre Dame scored. Something like 7UP and the touchdowns in the seven matchups. And obviously -- you play a little bit from in front running behind against USCB Terence. Going one dimensional -- Cornwell did against Washington -- world.

Our -- what he thought he takes on the show lately.

I -- more appointment coming off at any point this year but I don't see Notre Dame really holding them -- three touchdowns. In Canada USC 273020.

I think it's in got to think this comes down to me is prove me wrong 763 noted he's been outscored the last two games until I see them again US -- something different. I'm in the minds of the drugs are gonna roll again I don't think in general I think there is a months of the different Notre Dame mr. I think they believe they can play with -- beaten in the US if things go right form. What I it would Notre Dame I think of as the boxer's chance you've got -- often like they do the problem is their defense really bad pitchers there the hundredth in the country in total defense. Their run defense was actually the strength of the game run off and has been a little bit better but -- 68. So -- defense has been pretty bad often has been really good. One of those can keep them in the game something a couple early breaks -- a turnover from US here yeah he's not a sharp as they -- they should be. Notre -- got often that they can run up a big score hurry and force a play catch up which I don't know that they're capable of doing I don't think that's how it's gonna go out on the USC. But I think it's going to be a lot closer animals in the past couple years -- gonna have their hands full with SS ED 21 -- In the five game of by the -- the best defense and Notre Dame faced so far. Ronald -- back this week for the trojans getting a little bit of a playmaker back on offense an added motivation. The you know where's the fun Johnson decal on the helmet for the game well I think we've talked about it in previous weeks I think -- is really missing that bonafide number two receiver or even number one but Damian Williams the legit number one guy who -- the next guy. David ospreys -- during practice but I don't think he's the -- game Wednesday all America Joe Joe McKnight and -- that offensive backfield solid but -- the number two guy is severely and a fullback and then -- second most reliable receiver and I mean he beginnings in -- enough that he's. Basically -- Damian Williams or running game road to -- I wish. I wish. For the Irish the Michael Floyd was healthy for this game because when he's healthy. He and golden Tate are the best 12 punch in the country get the ball and claw its a shame that he's hurt. I think Scott that's gonna do for the got you here on fox or not come on Chris Anderson was he next time.
