00:00 It certainly is not, though.
00:04 This is not a talent issue.
00:06 There is a there is a confidence issue right now at Notre Dame, and there is a efficiency
00:12 issue at Notre Dame and taking advantage of opportunities you have.
00:15 So offensively, it's going to be a big game, obviously, for Notre Dame.
00:19 That's the key to victories for this game for offensively.
00:21 We're gonna move over to defensive keys next.
00:24 I would argue that that USC was a much better running team last year than this year.
00:30 I thought their offensive line may have better God-given talent this year, but they're not
00:37 they don't play the way that last year's unit did, which was a cohesive unit.
00:40 They weren't very talented, but they were a cohesive unit and they did what they needed
00:44 to do to allow Travis Dye to go off.
00:46 I mean, Travis Dye was having a great year prior to his injury, and they were a pretty
00:50 balanced team until he got hurt.
00:53 But the point was, is what you felt, because so much time on stopping Caleb Williams, that
00:59 you can also allow yourself to just go get ripped up on the on the other direction.
01:04 And if you look at USC's production this year in the run game, it's it's it's not bad.
01:10 I mean, it's been pretty decent, but they're they're not to me.
01:14 They're not really.
01:19 Same thing I've been talking about.
01:20 They've done it against teams that aren't that good, and and they've been a little bit
01:24 more inconsistent, a little bit more up and down this year, in my opinion, running the
01:28 football.
