  Up next for the football Huskies the season finale. I'm ninety one an Ambers
• 0:05
  mass against the rival UMass minute Men. Radio coverage beginning at ten thirty hard
• 0:10
  Auto Group count down to kickoff and it's game on at twelve noon. Here
• 0:14
  along the Yukon Sports networking online via the Varsited Network app and the Varsity Network
• 0:18
  dot Com back with Jim Mora and coach. It's funny. I get a
• 0:22
  lot of calls and texts, et cetera from Yukon fans that are around the
• 0:26
  country listening to the football games, and they are using the bar to our
• 0:29
  Seed Network app. It's different now. It's not like you used to be
• 0:34
  when we're growing up, like we had to have our radio in our hands
• 0:37
  or driving in our cars to hear what's going on. So it's kind of
• 0:40
  cool. You can really catch up with what's going on even if you're not
• 0:43
  in the area. Yeah, the world has changed in terms of how we
• 0:48
  you know, we view content and there's so many options now available for people
• 0:52
  to listen and view and it's exciting. And I know for my folks that
• 0:58
  are out in California, they have the ability to listen to this show.
• 1:02
  They have the ability to tune into every every game, every press conference,
• 1:07
  and you know, it keeps them up to date with what's going on here,
• 1:11
  which is something they're obviously very very passionate about. So I'm happy we
• 1:18
  have all these platforms that we can use. Guess the only problem is,
• 1:21
  Mike, is it keeps us tied to our phones all the time. Yeah.
• 1:25
  Yeah. I ran into a guy today in a coffee shop. Quick
• 1:26
  story. He says, I'm listening to the game, I'm watching the game,
• 1:30
  but you're you're not synced up to what the what the game is showing.
• 1:34
  Talking about our broadcast, and I said, well, sincmgame dot com.
• 1:38
  That's an app you can get on the app store and it actually syncs
• 1:42
  up the radio broadcast and what you're seeing on TV. And he goes,
• 1:45
  oh, that's great, I'm going to do that. He loads it on
• 1:48
  his phone like right in front of me, so he's also, that's pretty
• 1:52
  cool. You just still a little promo for uh yeah, I've never heard
• 1:56
  of it. It's always promoting, but no, it's great, it really
• 1:59
  is. Hey, Victor Rosa looked better the other day. Good to see
• 2:04
  him healthy. Had three or four weeks where he was hurting. What did
• 2:07
  you make of what he did out there? Because it looked like he had
• 2:09
  his his you know, his quickness back. I think he's probably still eighty
• 2:16
  five to nine. I don't think a running back after week one is ever
• 2:21
  one hundred percent though you know it takes so many but I feel like there
• 2:25
  was a couple of runs that the healthy victor breaks for touchdowns. But I
• 2:30
  do agree with you. It was good to see him closer than he's been
• 2:35
  in the last few weeks. And I asked him today and he felt felt
• 2:38
  like, you you know, getting through another game gave him more confidence,
• 2:42
  the pains settling down, and you know, I hope he can really be
• 2:45
  strong on Saturday for us. Yeah, eleven carries seventy four yards for him.
• 2:50
  Talking about these guys that are developing now as the season progresses, Lee
• 2:54
  Malette, you were saying is going to start and set of elite Dixon Williams,
• 3:00
  who suffered a broken arm. He first of all, he's had a
• 3:01
  rough year. Football is a tough sport, but he's had multiple injuries and
• 3:06
  the guy keeps bouncing back. This one is going to keep him out Saturday.
• 3:08
  I'm guessing you know what, It's unfortunate, but it is. He
• 3:13
  broke his arm. You're right, he's had one of those years where you
• 3:16
  know, something seems to happen, and I think it was early in the
• 3:20
  first game of the year. You know that he got hurt, and he
• 3:23
  just keeps having these these things that's going down. Even before he hurt his
• 3:28
  arm on Saturday, he was dealing with an ankle injury and you could really
• 3:31
  tell him the way he was moving. And I feel bad for him because
• 3:35
  he's a he's a tough kid, and he's a good player, and he
• 3:38
  cares and he's well respected by his teammates, and you know, I like
• 3:42
  it when he's out there. But you know he'll be back strong next year,
• 3:46
  and this will give us a chance to get lead even more time.
• 3:47
  Now. He's been getting a lot of time and he's been playing well.
• 3:53
  You know, we've been rotating these little bit so we'll have to be a
• 3:57
  little bit less inclined to do that this week. Yeah, so Lee Malletti
• 4:01
  gets some more reps out there. That's good news. Kylee shicks touchdown catch.
• 4:06
  We have him on the show a little bit later on. He's been
• 4:09
  in five games Now, he's such an interesting guys. It's spent some time
• 4:14
  talking to him. He's a football player. It looks looks to me,
• 4:16
  sounds like to me, this dude just likes to play football. I agree
• 4:20
  with you, and I really like him. I think he's tough. And
• 4:23
  when he came in and here we you know, kind of ascillating between does
• 4:28
  he play offenses? He played defensive back and you know, it seems us
• 4:31
  his best positions at receiver. It was great to see him make that catch.
• 4:34
  I mean, take one through a beautiful ball. He's stuck it in
• 4:36
  there, but it was a contested drow and a contested catch and Kylie,
• 4:41
  you know, he attacked the football and made to play. One of the
• 4:43
  things that he does that goes unnoticedes is downfield blocking. He's a very aggressive
• 4:48
  and good, disciplined, consistent blocker down the field. So I'm impressed with
• 4:53
  his growth. Yeah, on the defensive side, to Jim Price Yates,
• 4:57
  how about him twelve and a half to for us four and a half sacks.
• 5:01
  I mean, that guy is kind of an igniter. It looks like
• 5:04
  on defense when he gets in the backfield, bad things happen for the offense.
• 5:11
  Yeah, and he goes about it so quietly, you know, you
• 5:13
  just don't even notice it. He's not a guy that gets a lot of
• 5:15
  acclaim and yet he's just very consistent his performance every week and count on him
• 5:20
  to do what he's supposed to do. And then beyond, I thought he
• 5:24
  had a great game on Saturday. I think he had a sack or a
• 5:27
  sack and a half and he had the four tackles for loss and you know
• 5:30
  several on the years you mentioned, I think he had six tackles. And
• 5:34
  yeah, he's just a really good football player for us, and he's young,
• 5:38
  he's got some time left and he's going to get better and better.
• 5:41
  Yeah. Two of the things that the defense did against Sacred Hard is they
• 5:45
  limited their running and they really were a good running team coming in. I
• 5:47
  know FCS, but still they ran the ball pretty well, held him to
• 5:51
  seventy eight yards and also on third down that's been a real key stat this
• 5:56
  year for Yukon's defense. They did an excellent job on Saturday too for a
• 6:00
  eleven. When you do that, you get them off the field. That's
• 6:03
  that's one of those you know, elements that goes into a winning formula.
• 6:08
  Doesn't it without doubt. You know, you eliminate place for your opponent and
• 6:13
  you theoretically, you know, provide more opportunities for your offense. And uh,
• 6:18
  that's why third down is such a key down, and so often third
• 6:24
  down is influenced by what happens on first and second a. Because you can
• 6:28
  get a team in the third and long, your percentages to stop them certainly
• 6:30
  go up. And we were able to do that. And that's you know,
• 6:33
  like you said, the run game, it goes hand in hand when
• 6:35
  you can when you can consistently stop the run game and make a team throw
• 6:40
  it, you know, just more good things can happen for you. And
• 6:44
  that was part of the part of the reason that we that we were able
• 6:46
  to get a win on Saturdays, stopping the run and certainly getting them off
• 6:50
  the field on third down. Jim Morris Willison. We will continue more on
