What a place. I used to think that if I wanted to experience the atmosphere/environment of a football game then I should go to the game, and if I wanted to see the best view of the game, then i should stay home and watch it on TV. Not anymore, at that stadium we got atmosphere and view with the 60 yd wide by 24 yd tall score board / replay screen.
Anxiety and nerves were killing us, and it wasn't long before I realized my voice was not in shape for football season. BYU fans only filled about 25% of the sold out game, so we had to yell loud to make up the difference.
The place went crazy when Hall hit Jacobson in the end zone for 6. OU then missed a long field goal and that was it. What a finish! BYU was victorious, and the upset was complete. We were exhausted but could not have been any happier.
Today the new rankings came out and BYU went from #20 to #9. This is great but not. Being ranked #9 is a lot of pressure, and will put a huge target on their backs. Hope they learned their lesson last year. This week at Tulane, next at Home vs a fast Florida st. Since I'm sure all you moms care.

I care!! haha That's awesome that you were there and got to see it!
I care too Phil! I watched the game all by myself while Trey was out working. I'm jealous you got to go to that game in that stadium. We love the Cowboys so someday we'll get to see it. Hopefully BYU doesn't choke from this point on. Dennis Pitta is an old friend of mine and conveniently my favorite player. Woo!
This is one blogpost my hubby will actually read. Glad you could make it Phil. Wish it were for longer and with my sister and cute nephew.
You underestimate us girls. I LOVE football and got Josh into watching it. I'm glad that you got to go though. Don't you ever have to work? ;)
Holly! I love you and miss you too. I'm not putting (!) at the end of that sentence because I'm serious and I'm now sad that I haven't seen you in over a year. I'm saving my money to come visit.
