A Utah Man Am I! GO UTES!


Dad and Jays have season tickets to the Ute football games. We were lucky to get to be able to attend. AND, not only just attend, but attend arguably the best game of the season! Yes, Hannah & I were at the Oregon State game. And like every other Ute fan, we had a great time! For those of you who missed it....mini recap. Utes not playing great...ok, Brian Johnson was not playing great. But still had the lead most of the game. Sometime in the 4th quarter we lost that lead. After we had been behind for a few minutes, I looked at Hannah and said, "Man, this is going to be a real bummer if the first game we come to, the Utes lose." Hannah looked back at me and said, "Yeah, especially after all that smack talkin' we did to Gramma!" LOL! Yes, my family is divided between the Utes and the Other school. And as much of Ute fans as Hannah & I are, I have seen a different side of my brother. WOW! Talk about IN-Tense! With 2:18 left, Utah 20, Oregon St. 28, Dad said, "Plenty of time...we have plenty of time." My brother said nothing.... Brian Johnson did wake up, scored a TD and ran in the 2 point conversion to tie the game up. Louie Sakoda kicked a 37 yard field goal just as the clock ran out and the Utes won! When it was all over, Dad said, "We had 'em where we wanted 'em at 2:18." All Jayson could say was, "I don't believe it!" I think he was in shock...seriously! We were all hoarse the next day...even Hannah! Thanks for the game! I can't wait til next time!


I'm glad we took this before we ever got behind...I don't think it would have happened otherwise! Love ya, Brother, but, WOW!



Funny story about the UTAH/byu rivalry in our house...about 3 or so years ago, Hannah asked me, "Mom, if we hate BYU, does that mean we hate Brigham Young?" I have lighten up...just a little.


This picture is what my dad told Hannah the reason is for going to college...Hmmmm.
