Listen "Seth Anderson | USC Heartbreaker Recap + Michigan State Spartans Preview"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Talkin’ Hawks with the VandeBergs, Matt and Laura unpack another gut-punch finish as they break down the USC heartbreaker, from the “Heartbreak Kids” vibes and missed breaks to the toe-tap drama, non-calls, and why they still believe this might be Iowa’s best team since 2015. They revisit the electric “Philly Special” moment, highlight unsung standouts like freshman tight end DJ Vonnahme, and talk about how this group can respond, reset, and finish the season strong with a statement against Michigan State. Then the crew flips to the offensive side of the ball with wide receiver Seth Anderson, diving into his journey to Iowa City, his days as a multi-sport athlete in track and wrestling, and what ultimately pulled him out of the transfer portal and into the Hawkeye family. Seth opens up about learning the game from his dad, former NFL receiver “Flipper” Anderson, balancing a Business and Enterprise Leadership major with Big Ten football, and why his quiet, media-trained demeanor off the field doesn’t stop him from talking a little trash between the lines.Whether you’re still stinging from USC or already looking ahead to Michigan State, this episode delivers film-room insight, locker-room culture, and a closer look at one of Iowa’s playmakers on the rise. 🎧 New episodes every Monday—subscribe and join the conversation!
