Football has been a huge part of my life starting in fourth grade when I wrote a letter to my favorite NFL. That team was the San Francisco 49ers and I got a autograph picture of Steve Young. Steve Young was one of my favorite players and just happened to play for my favorite team, BYU.
This year, BYU started the season on a huge win against then number three Oklahoma University. I was thinking National Championship from then on.
They would follow up with a win against Tulane. They would then lose to Florida State, which dashed their hopes for the National Championship.
Not being discouraged, the Cougars would go on to win the next four games. They were against Colorado State, Utah State, UNLV and San Diego State. A hiccup was on the way.
BYU would go into the TCU game ranked 16 and TCU was eight. It was so big that College Game Day showed up and went the whole mile. The game would be a disappointing one with TCU winning 38-7
With a National Championship season and now a Conference Championship being dashed, you think the Cougars would have nothing to play for. Thankfully, they don't do things like that in Provo which is good news to me.
The Cougars would beat the University of Wyoming the next week and just beat New Mexico today.
I've loved the Cougars since I first saw them play. They are a great team and play the style of game I like to watch. I hope they win the rest of there games and beat the hated rivals, the UTES.
GO COUGARS!!
