    Crazy game tonight, absolutely amazing game tonight between the Utah Utes and BYU. I've actually never listened to or watched a football game all the way through before tonight. I think I picked the perfect night to do so for the first time.  The Utes beat down BYU with a score of 54 to 10. I had trouble staying in my chair through the whole game while I was at my computer. I just wanted to move around and dance the whole time and if I wasn't inside my house I probably would have been screaming and yelling as well. It's to bad I couldn't have been up in Salt Lake City with the other fans, that would have been a blast.

     I have been a Utes fan for as long as I can remember. I have no idea how I became a Utes fan but I do know that I am very proud to be a Utes fan tonight. The rest of my family is BYU fans, for some reason I have never been able to get on that bandwagon it has never seemed appealing to me at all. My love for the red is strong and it has withstood the test of time. We scored something like 7 touchdowns, and a couple field goals I think. You can see more about the game at >>> THIS <<< article, it has more information about the game.

     I was on the edge of my seat the whole time listening to it on ESPN700, the U of U radio station. I don't have cable, so I couldn't watch it on TV. I would have if I had had the channel though. I intend to watch stuff from the game first chance I get. I was smiling through the whole game, it made me super happy to be a Crimson fan tonight and I was following along with other fans as well on facebook and Twitter.  I made a few facebook statuses during the game, mainly every time we scord a Touchdown in the game. I will post those here at the end of this entry.

     I was really hyped for the game through the whole day. Nothing really that interesting happened today besides me playing Tetris, so my whole attention was focused on the game tonight. I am going to be wearing as much red and white tomorrow to church as possible to celebrate the amazing win.

     My sister made this strawberry kettle corn stuff during the game, it was perfect for the game, strawberry is an appropriate flavor for a Utes game. the popcorn was really good, and I loved eating it during the Utes game.

     My brother goes to the U of U, and I hope I can go there too when I go to graduate school in a few years. I think I would love to get my Phd in psychology at the U, that would be great. 

     Anyway, I can tell I'm going to sleep well tonight, I haven't been this relaxed in a while. It's going to be a great night tonight I can tell that already. I think I better end this now, it's getting pretty late and I need my sleep because I have church tomorrow.

     Here are the facebook statuses from tonight.
