The Grizzlies have handled one of their back to back road games with a solid, but kind of dull, win against UNC. The Grizzlies defense pitched a shutout, the QB rotation baffled the guys once again, and the RB duo did their thing. The guys spend a bit of time to look around the conference and talk/scout out Cal Poly. We round out the pod with fan questions!

It was a restful bye week for the Montana Grizzlies and for their fans alike, but now it’s crunch time. Joining the pod this week is KPAX news sports journalist Kyle Hansen to talk on his observations of the season so far. With no game to recap, but plenty of roster talk to cover, the guys get into their opinions on the season and future outlooks as well. After a lengthy chat and differing of opinions there’s a quick overview given on Northern Colorado, and then they move on to fan questions. As expected, most fan questions cover Kyle’s obsession with the Olive Garden.
