Go Utes!!


Last night Eric and I went to the University of Utah game and they played Oregon State... it was such an exciting game! Syrena's special day brought the Utes some much needed luck and they were able to pull off the win, much to many people's surprise (not surprising to true Ute fans of course). It was maddening though because the Beavers (OSU) scored a touchdown late in the fourth quarter, giving us only 3 minutes to tie the game (their score put them up by 8 points). So the Utes charge down the field and make the touchdown... our first attempt at a two point conversion was foiled but the refs called "Pass Interference" (finally refs!! I swear they were calling stuff for the other team right and left in their favor and screwing us on every call... a different rant for a different blog) so we got a second chance. On our second try, the quarter back ran it in and we were tied. We kicked the ball to the other team and our AMAZING defense (they were incredible all night long, despite seeing so much play time - they had to be exhausted) held them and forced them to kick to us. We made a couple of good plays, just enough to get us within field goal range and with only 1 second remaining, the attempt was good! The fans stormed the field, it was so cool.. my throat is so hoarse from screaming though!
