I'll be perfectly honest: the way that BYU has played this year and the way we really haven't been able to count on the Utes being consistent, I was worried that Saturday's Holy War would end up in a complete route by BYU. Fortunately, this was not the case. After two scores by the Cougs, the Utes regrouped and completely dominated the second and third quarters. The game was super close-- with Utah ahead most of the game!-- and it actually came down to a final play, when BYU's Cryin' Quarterback, John Beck, threw the winning touchdown pass with no time left on the clock. 33-31 was the final score in favor of the Cougars. It was incredible! Both teams played extremely well, so even though BYU won in a heartbreaker, at least the Utes gave them a good run. Chris's reaction: "Sometimes you need a loss from BYU to keep you humble."
And at least we got to see John Beck cry some more...
Thomas took this picture of me watching TV. He's not a bad litte photographer, is he?
So, both teams will head to bowl games in the next month or so, which is exciting. We really had a great time watching the Utes this year-- and nothing better than a close one to end the year and keep the rivalry going strong! GO UTES!!!

Wow! What a great game, eh?! It was so much fun (at least for the BYU fans)! I thought of you and Chris the whole time. Jarom thought Chris's "humble" comment was hilarious. Here's to next year!!!
