The Drive | Hour 1 | 09.01.26

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross-talking with Dover and Cecil. The guys discuss Kroenke Sports and Entertainment purchasing the Los Angeles Angels and why the Nuggets had to shed salary by not paying Peyton Watson, but can afford to buy a baseball team. Zach and Phil break down Sean Payton as he is on the brink of history this season with the Broncos. Will Payton finish this season in the top-10 for all-time NFL coaching wins? If he coaches throughout his recent contract extension, where could he rank among the best coaches of all time? We preview the Colorado and Georgia Tech season opener this Thursday. Will CU be able to run the ball this season in a way they haven't been able to under Deion Sanders? We pivot to CSU as they open up the season hosting Wyoming in the "Border War".
