Justin Michael begins the podcast by talking about a brutal loss to San Jose State in Jim McElwain's first season and how teams with talent have to first learn how to become winners. He then gives an update on what's happening in Ag Land, and gives his perspective on Craig Thompson stepping down after 24 years as the Mountain West commissioner. Finally, Justin previews the Washington State matchup with Cougars beat reporter and CSU alumnus Travis Green of KREM2 News in Spokane, Washington (17:19).
