Will Ferrell’s USC trash talk to Notre Dame QB Brady Quinn was original

.@IrishWireND passed along this fun story. Also fun: #USC beating Notre Dame regularly under Pete Carroll.

Our friends at Fighting Irish Wire are generous. They sent us this next story even though it contains a lot of USC glee at Notre Dame’s expense.

Here’s Fighting Irish Wire editor Nick Shepkowski:

“Perhaps Notre Dame‘s most-known quarterback of the last 20-years is Brady Quinn.  He holds countless Fighting Irish passing records and was a two-time Heisman Trophy finalist during his college days.

“Notre Dame’s biggest rival is obviously USC and one of their most famous graduates is comedian and actor Will Ferrell.

Shepkowski noted that “Ferrell’s trash talk was one-of-a-kind though, something that the two discussed as Quinn was a guest on the Dan Patrick Show, live from Dublin on Thursday.”

You will want to watch the video in the article. It’s worth it — not just from a USC perspective, but for anyone who wants a good laugh.

Notre Dame is in Dublin to play its season opener against Navy. Follow Fighting Irish Wire for complete Notre Dame football coverage for the Navy game and beyond.
