The BYU Cougars showed a resurgent rushing attack that Jake Hatch believes will be key for the BYU football to rebound from a 2023 campaign that disappointed in the Big 12 Conference and it is spear-headed by LJ Martin along with contributions from Miles Davis, Pokaiaua Haunga and Enoch Nawahine, among others.

Jake then caught up with veteran safety Micah Harper to talk about his recovery from a second ACL injury that cost him the 2023 season as he explains what he hopes to accomplish this fall for Kalani Sitake's program and why he has thoroughly enjoyed his time at Brigham Young University (BYU).

Finally, the show wrapped up with some thoughts on the BYU men's basketball program re-entering the AP Top-25 Polls at 20th overall and why there is everything for Mark Pope and BYU basketball to play for this week as they gear up for a showdown against the sixth-ranked Iowa State Cyclones Wednesday night in Hilton Coliseum in Ames, IA.
