Team captain Connor Pay offers an insider's perspective on how the Cougars are gearing up to attack Colorado's robust defense.

He discusses the importance of strategic adjustments and the challenges of facing a unit he describes as "prototypical NFL defense." This episode is a must-listen for fans eager to understand the nuances of college football and the preparation that goes into a successful season. Beyond the game, we also delve into personal reflections and holiday plans, capturing the spirit of the season. Connor shares his thoughts on the importance of giving back and how the team balances their rigorous schedule with personal commitments.
