"I wouldn't be here if it weren't for wonderful people and mentors along the way," Sitake said. "So I hope the BYU fans understand Urban Meyer took care of me. He allowed me to do some professional development, whether he was at Utah, whether he was at Florida or Ohio State. So I appreciate you."

Joel Klatt, who will be on the call for BYU-Arizona, joined the show to discuss favorites to win the Big 12 title. Colorado, Kansas State, and Iowa State were discussed most. Klatt brought up BYU att the end of the segment.

Cosmo has done a little bit of everything on Saturday.

Former BYU legend Steve Young joined the show to talk about Jake Retzlaff and this 2024 BYU football team. "We can beat anybody," Young said on BYU's complimentary style of play.
