The Helium Boys, Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino, return to the airwaves with their annual preseason Over/Under edition of the podcast discussing a number of statistical categories for both USC's team and individual players and whether the Trojans will be 'over' or 'under' the line set by Chris.But first the podcasting duo open with the Two-Minute Drill  where Shotgun talks about his confidence level in the Trojans after spending a week in Los Angeles to see the team while Chris talks about his excitement for the Over/Under episode, which is one of his favorite every year. The boys of Helium jump into prior comments and corrections before jumping into the 'Stock Up/Stock Down' section where the big boys up front on the offensive line wind up on both sides as does the kicking competition. The direction of the linebackers and defensive line also are discussed.The conclusion of the first half of the show has Chris rattling off all of last year's Over/Under categories and seeing how Shotgun did in his prognostication of those statistical lines with him finishing 14-12 on the offensive side and 11-12 on the defensive side.Shotgun gets his shot at redemption and/or improvement in the second half of the show as Chris breaks out a whole new bevy of statistical categories for Shotgun to declare over/unders against. The show concludes with an Overtime period discussing the movie The Odyssey and watching a movie in a 70mm IMAX theatre.
