Victory!!!

There are days we all have that go better than expected, like say, winning the lottery or finding out that your grandpa was a taxicab driver for Frank Sinatra, and then there are days like yesterday, when BYU beats #3 ranked Oklahoma in the first game of their football season. I watched said game with about 20 other people at my friend Kait’s house, seeing as she has a house all to herself since her parents left for Israel without her. Check the link to the espn article if you want more info about the actual game, other than that it was freakin awesome.

Now I must say I feel rather bad for Sam Bradford, though. He certainly had a rough day. Getting injured and losing your game and probably your season with it is never very fun. Not exactly one of those days that you can’t wait to run home and write in your journal. Either way, I do strongly disagree with some analysts when they mention BYU in BCS or even championship game talk, seeing as it’s been 1 game and I don’t see them rising higher than maybe like #14 over the weekend. Take it one week at a time, my friends. One week at a time.

Anyway, at first I thought the insanity at the house was pretty top-notch, honestly. Our rather large yelling-and-jumping-into-each-other group was crazy after the last missed field goal, and there was much running around and rejoicing afterwards. After that, though, we decided to go back to campus and see if there was some sort of wild victory party going on. There was. Every car on campus was honking and yelling praises to the BYU football team to other cars and pedestrians, and there were a few gatherings of fans scattered around campus, dancing and reveling like madmen. We ended up going to a dance party that was pretty dang fun and then coming back to the dorm to sit around doing nothing like usual, which in our dorm turns hilarious, obviously. That’s pretty much what went down yesterday (And yes, I do realize that by the time this is posted, it won't really be yesterday, but when I started this post it was. Give me a break).

GO COUGARS!!!!!
