– The fast start, the rough patch, and the “Mo Bamba Moment”
– Why the sideline’s energy down 10 was the difference
– Breaking down Sac State’s front and where the Ags took control

– What it’s like blocking for an improviser
– Adjusting from Miles Hasting to Caden Pinnick
– How the O-line plays in space on scrambles

– Growing up near Sac State but knowing he wasn’t “green”
– First exposure to UC Davis culture and what pulled him in
– Learning the rivalry from the inside

– Zaire opens up about confidence, doubt, and finding joy
– The backstory behind his viral mental-health films
– Why he sees his calling as helping people, not chasing titles
