picture recap of 2007

They say (who "they" are I am not sure) that the difference between the fans of the 3 major Utah universities is...
1. USU fans are happy win or lose.
2. U of U fans are happy when they win, but not when they lose.
3. BYU fans aren't happy win or lose.
Whether that is true or not I will leave for you to decide.

That being said, 2007 was a pretty good year except for the losses against UCLA and TULSA. Lucky for us we were able to redeem ourselves against the beastly bruins in the Las Vegas Bowl, although a win the first time around would have been awesome too. And TULSA! I'm not even going to go there. That game should have been won! Enough said!

Let's take a minute to recap one of my favorite moments from 2007...The UTAH (or Eww-tah) game. End of the 4th quarter... BYU had the ball on their own 12 yard line... it was 4th and 18. After what seemed like 8 hours of scrambling around in the pocket (thanks O-line) Max Hall finally finds a wide open Austin Collie down the sideline to convert. 4 plays later Harvey Unga finds the endzone to win the game 17-10. In your face Utes!

Thanks to mom and dad (season ticket holders for 28 years) the family was able to go to all the home games and some of the away games. Here are some pics from BYU games 2007.

BYU/UCLA game 1 in Los Angeles

"hi mom" Rose Bowl
Kami, Cristen and Brandon at the game.
Sorry I had to get a picture in our copper colored Chevy HHR. Awesome. Not really.

BYU/NEW MEXICO game...i think...the game was soooo boring that I don't remember. The pictures will back me up on that.Ahhh... cute mom and pops asleep on the couch.
Nate-O was so bored he ditched out on the game and fell asleep on our bed. Brandon decided that Hand Held Yahtzee was more exciting than the game. I'm surprised he didn't start texting.

BYU/UTAH game Clayton and I
Brandon the "loco en da cabasa" fan.
Goal for this year. Get Nate to sing the fight song when we score. In 2007 we got him to STAND when we scored. That was a major accomplishment.

Good times were had in 2007 and even better times (i hope) will be had in 2008. GO COUGARS.
