I don't know how many of you say the BYU vs. Utah game on the 24th but it was glorious! Snow and I were lucky enough to score some tickets and it was freezing, but so much fun.
We knew it would be an exciting game, and we were not disappointed. We were trailing the Utes 10-9, and had control of the ball with 1:34 remaining on the game clock. All the folks dressed in red thought they had it in the bag, and Snow and I were pretty nervous. Max Hall was hit for an eight-yard loss on first down, followed by two incomplete passes to Dennis Pitta, which brought us to fourth-and-18. Hall connected with Collie for a 49-yard reception, putting the Cougars on Utah's 24 yard line. A personal foul and pass interference call against the Utes (which they are still complaining about) set up a first-and-10 situation for BYU. Manase Tonga gained three yards then Unga made a 14-yard touchdown run to put the Cougars up by five points. Opting for the two-point conversion, Hall and Collie connected once again for a catch in the end zone. Sadly for the Utes, they could not return the favor in the 30 seconds or so left on the clock so victory was ours!
Pretty much the whole stadium rushed the field to celebrate--I love BYU Football!

Congratulations. It's hard for me to admit it, but I was happy to see the Cougs pull it off.
Awesome game. 4th and 18?!! Go Cougars!! Glad to see you guys are doing well. Saylor looks really cute. Now if you could just do something about Snow.
Snow, no matter what Tommy says you're somewhat cute. At least you weren't wearing red at the game.
Yeah well I guess seeing it on TV will have to do for us! :) It was great. That's so fun you guys got to go. Holy Moly there were a LOT of people there!
