Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Northern Colorado Fights Hard Against South Dakota, Plus Chad Smith of WyoNation Previews the Pokes
Q: What does Wyoming's offense look like under the new coordinator, and how might UNC prepare for a run-heavy approach?
Smith indicated the offense is still a work in progress but will likely be run-heavy with play-action and heavy use of tight ends, so UNC should expect a grounded, physical game with an emphasis on controlling the clock and shutting down the run.

Q: After a loss to CSU, what were the vibes around the Cowboys and how does Tyler Hughes look after his first big test?
Chad Smith described Hughes as capable and athletic, noting that the first-game interceptions were more tough luck than poor execution, and he is optimistic Hughes can settle in as the quarterback with more protection and play-making around him.
