In this episode, CSU Hall of Famer and eight-year NFL veteran Sean Moran joins Joel and Mike to relive some of the greatest moments in Colorado State football history, including his legendary 77-yard fumble return in the 1994 upset of No. 6 Arizona, the Rams’ breakthrough win at BYU and an unforgettable Border War comeback against Wyoming. He touches on three Border War wins, as this year’s version looms just two weeks away. Moran shares what made Sonny Lubick’s teams special, tells stories about former teammates including Joey Porter, and offers his perspective on why the program struggled to sustain that success in the years that followed. He also looks ahead to a new era under Jim Mora, who coached Moran with the San Francisco 49ers, and explains why Mora’s blue-collar approach reminds him of Lubick. Plus, Moran discusses what it means to now watch his son Jack compete on CSU’s defensive line and why he believes the pieces are in place for the Rams to start building something special again.
